1 (d) What do you mean by Environmental Lapse Rate (ELR) and Adiabatic
Lapse Rate (ALR)? How and in what manner do the environmental lapse
rate and adiabatic lapse rate affect the dispersion of an air pollutant into
the atmosphere? Explain clearly.
[12 marks]
Solution:
Lapserate:In the troposphere, the temperature of the ambient air usually decrease with an
increase in attitude. This rate of temperature change is called the lapse rate, This rate wil
differ from place to place and from time to time even at the same place.
Environmental lapse rate (ELR)/Ambient lapse: The ELR can be determined by sending up.
a balloon equipped with a thermometer. The balloon moves through the alt, not with it, and
the temperature gradient of ambient air, which the rising balloon measures is called the
ambient lapse rate, the environmental lapse rate or the prevailing lapse rate.
Adiabatic Lapse Rate: When a parcel of air, whichis hotter and lighter than the surrounding
air is released, then naturally it tends to rise up, unti it reaches to a level at which its own
temperature and density becomes equal to that of the surrounding using the law of
conservation of energy and gas law. This-rate of decrease of temperature with height is
called adiabatic lapse rate. Dry air expanding adiabatically, cools at ate of 98°C per kilometer
and itis called dry adiabatic lapse rate. In wet adiabatic process a saturated parcel of ait
rises and cools. Temperature changes of the parcel are due to liberation of latent heat as.
well as of expansion of the air. Wet adiabatic lapse rate (6°C/km) is thus lesser than dry
adiabatic lapse rate. Since a rising parcel of emitted smokes will normally, neither be fully
dry nor fully saturated, the actual adiabatic lapse rate (ALA), representing cooling of the
emitted smokes will be between the dry adiabatic rate and wet adiabatic rate, The three:
major relative position of ELR line with reference to ALR line are as follows:
(a) Super Adiabatic Lapse Rate: When the ELR is more than the ALR then ambient lapse
rate is super adiabatic and the environment is said to unstable
Dispersion of pollutants will be rapid due to rapid vertical mixing of the air making the
environment unstable.

+ Thetheorem states thatif there are n dimensional variables involved in a phenomenon,
which can be completely described by m fundamental quantities or dimensions
(such as mass, length, time ete.), and are related by dimensionally homogeneous
equation, then the relationship among the r-quantities can always be expressed in
terms of exactly (n- m) dimensionless and independent x terms.
* _Inagenetal dimensional analysis problem, there is one x that we call the dependent
zr, giving itthe notation m. The parameter x, is in general a function of several other
¢s, which we call independent r’s. Thus,

* Ifany two quantities have same dimension, then their ratios will be a a-term.
* Any mterm can be replaced by any power of that term, can also be replaced by
multiplying or dividing it by another r-term,
Procedure for Selecting Repeating Variables
() Select the first repeating variable from those describing the geometry of flow
e.g. size and shape of fluid passage or of the moving body such as diameter,
length, height, ete.
(ji) Select the second repeating variable from those representing the fluid properties
such as density, viscosity, surface tension, elasticity, vapour pressure, etc
(ii) Select the third repeating variable from those characterising the fluid motion
such as velocity, acceleration, discharge, pressure, force, power.

@4 (d) Explain the Hardy Cross method used for pipe network analysis in the
water distribution system. Also derive the expression to apply correction
to assumed flow successively for each pipe loop in the network.
[20 marks)
In any pipe network, the following two conditions must be satistied:
(). The algebraic sum of the pressure drops around a closed loop must be zero, i.e. there
can be no discontinuity in pressure.
(i) The flow entering a junction must be equal to the flow leaving the same junction; i.e. the
law of continuity must be satisfied,
Gardt-Cross Method: The flow in each pipe is assumed by the designer (in magnitude as
well as in direction) in such a way that the principle of continuity is satisfied at each junction
(.e. the inflow al any junction becomes equal to the outflow at that junction).
Acortection to these assumed flows is then computed successively for each pipe loop in
the network, until the correction is reduced to an acceptable magnitude.
IQ, is the assumed flow and Qis the actual flow in the pipe, then that correction Ais given
by
A=Q-0,
or Q=Q,4+4
Now, expressing the head loss (H,) as
Hi = Kat
We have, the head loss in a pipe,

Now, around a closed loop, the summation of head losses must be zero.

Since Ais given the same sign (or direction) in all pipes of the loop, the denominator of the

1. Spot speed is the instantaneous speed of a vehicle at a specified section or location.
2. Running speed is the average speed maintained by a vehicle over a particular stretch of
road, while the vehicle is in motion. This is obtained by dividing the distance covered by
the time during which the vohicle is actually in motion.
Space-mean speed represents the average speed of vehicles in a certain road length at
any time. This is obtained from the observed travel time of the vehicles over a relatively
long stretch of the road. Space-mean speed is calculated from:
v,= 36ch
4
where V, = space-mean speed, kmph
d= length of road considered, (in m)
n= number of individual vehicle observations
t, = observed travel time (sec) for the vehicle to travel distance
dm
The average travel time of all the vehicles is obtained from the reciprocal of space mean
speed,
4, Time-mean speed represents the speed distribution of vehicles at a point on the roadway
and itis the average of instantaneous speeds of observed vehicles at the spot. Time-
mean speed is calculated from:
where, ime-mean speed, kmph
observed instantaneous speed of ith vehicles, kmph
1umber of vehicles observed
‘Ths space-mean speed is slightly lower than time mean speed under typical speed
conditions on rural highway,
Purpose of spot speed study is:
(@) Planning traffic control and in traffic regulations.
(b) Geometric design-for redesigning existing highways.
(¢) Inaccident studies.
(d) Study the traffic capacity.
(@) Decide the speed trends
(f) Compare diverse types of drivers and vehicles under specified conditions.

5 (d) What is meant by crossing? What are the essential requirements of a
good crossing? Discuss various types of crossing in use in Indian Railways.
[12 marks]
Soluti
‘A‘crossing’ ora ‘rog' is a device which provides two flangeways through which the wheels
of the flanges may move, when two rails intersect each other at an angle.
The flanged wheel of the train jump over the gap from ‘throat’ ot ‘nose’ of crossing and to
check the whee! flanges from striking the nose, the opposite wheel flanges are guided by
Use of ‘check rails’ inside the running rail
Components of Crossing:
() Acrossing ot Vee piece.
(i) Point and splice rails.
(ii) Wing rails
(iv) Check rails,
(v) Chairs at crossing, at toe and at hee!
(ui) Throat of crossing
Requirements and characteristics of a good crossing
(0) The assembly of a crossing has to be rigid to stand against severe vibrations.and splice
rails.
(i) The wear on patts of the wing rails, opposite the nose and also of nose itself must be
protected. The medium manganese steel(ie., an alloy steel) is used where traffic is ight
whereas high manganese steel is used where traffic is heavy.
(ii) The crossing body should be as rigid as possible and as long as practicable
(iv) Ramp the wing rails by 3 mm to 6 mm at the top from throat to nose and flushing itto the
normal level of the chair
(¥) By use of the distance blocks closely touching the web.
(vi) The nose of crossing should have some thickness, aries from 6 mm to 18 mm
Type of Crossings: Crossing can be classified as below:
1. Acute angle crossing or "V” crossing or Frog.
2. Obtuse angle crossing or Diamond crossing
3. Square crossing
1, Acute angle crossing: It is obtained when a left-hand rail of one track crosses a rig
hand rail of another track or vice versa, The crossing used widely,
2. Obtuse angle crossing: This crossing is obtained when left-hand rail of one track
crosses right hand rail of another track ot vice versa at an obtuse angle.
In diamond crossing, a pair of special crossing is used whichis called "Obtuse crossing’

3. Square crossing: When two straight tracks cross each other at right angles, they give
rise to square crossing. Ths type of crossing must be avoided on mainlines because
there is heavy wear due to dynamic loads.
