Written (10*4=40)

1. A centrifugal pump delivers 2.5 m3 /s under a head of 14m and running at a speed of 2010 rpm.
The impeller diameter of the pump is 125 mm. If a 104 mm diameter impeller is fitted and the
pump runs at a speed of 2210 rpm, what is the volume rate? Determine also the new pump
head.

2. A vehicle is driven from an electric motor via the compound system show the below figure
where N1=20, N2=100, N3=25, N4=75; the efficiency of the first stage is 94% and the second
stage is 96%. If the final drive required torque of 100 n-m at 200rev/min. what is the initial
torque and speed of the motor?

Solution:

3. Determine the force P required where static friction factor 0.35 and dynamic friction factor is
0.25 to (a) start moving up the incline (b) keep it moving up (c) Prevent it from sliding down.

Solution: (a) FBD

4. Draw T-S diagram of diesel cycle. And prove that in T-S diagram slope of constant volume is
stepper than constant pressure process.

Solution: T-S Diagram:

We know,

du=Tds - Pdv but du=CvdT

Implies CvdT=Tds - Pdv

At constant volume (isochoric), dv=0, Implies CvdT=Tds

Hence dT/ds = (T/Cv)

Also, dh=TdS+vdp Where dh=CpdT

At constant pressure (isobaric) dp=0, Implies dh=TdS

Hence, CpdT=TdS

Therefore dT/dS= (T/Cp)

Generally, Cp>CV.

Implies |T/Cp|<|T/Cv|

So, we can conclude that the magnitude of the slope of the isochore is stepper than that of
the isobar.

5. Derive the centroidal polar moment of inertia of circle with a radius of R.
