In the ideal heat exchanger, the temperature of

the compressed air gets raised from 4x2 TTtoT

before combustion chamber. And heat supplied

in the combustion chamber is, therefore, given by

It may be noted that velocity diagram is

drawn for moving blades and therefore V0

shown there is not the V0 used in the

equation. V0 shown in the diagram is the

absolute velocity of steam leaving the

moving blades and going to second stage, if

any. Thus this V0 need not be equal to 100

m/sec. The values of V0 = 100 and Vi = 250

are fixed blades before the moving blades.

The values are

Vro = 202 m/sec, Vi = 250 m/sec,

and as such, it is utilized for collecting and

storing solar energy.

A solar pond reduces the convective and

evaporative heat losses by reversing the

temperature gradient with the help of non-

uniform vertical concentration of salts.

Figure illustrates the principle of solar pond.

The vertical configuration of “salt gradient

solar pond” normally consist of the

following three zones :

1. “Surface (homogeneous) convective zone

(SCZ)”. It is adjacent to the surface and

serves as a buffer zone between

environmental fluctuations at the surface

and conductive heat transport from the layer

below. It is about 10 to 20 cm thick with a

: 15 : ME–Conventional Test-13(Solutions)

low uniform concentration at nearly the

ambient air temperature.

2. “Lower connective zone (LCG) : It is at the

bottom of the pond, and this is the layer

with highest salt concentration, where high

temperatures are built up.

3. “Concentration / Intermediate gradient zone

(CGZ) : This zone keeps the two convective

zones (SCG and LCG) apart and gives the

solar pond its unique thermal performance.

It provides excellent insulation for the

storage layer, while transmitting the solar

radiation. To maintain a solar pond in this

non-equilibrium stationary state it is

necessary to replace the amount of salt that

is transported by molecular diffusion from

the LCG to SCZ. This means that salt must

be added to the LCG and fresh water to the

SCG whilst brine is removed. The brine can

be recycled, divided into water and salt (by

solar distillation) and returned to the pond.

The major heat loss occurs from the surface

of the solar pond. This heat loss can be

prevented by spreading a plastic grid over

the pond’s surface to prevent disturbance by

the wind. Disturbed water tends to lose heat

transfer faster than when calm.

Due to the excessively high salt

concentration of the LCZ, a plastic liner or

impermeable soil must be used to prevent

infiltration into the nearby ground water or

soil. The liner is a factor that increases the

cost of a solar pond. A site where the soil is

naturally impermeable, such as the base of a

natural pond or lake, or can be made

impermeable by compaction or other means,

will allow considerably lower power costs.

The optical transmission properties and

related collection efficiency vary greatly

and depend on the following factors :

Salt concentration

The quantity of suspended dust or other

particles

Surface impurities like leaves or debris,

biological material like bacteria and algae.

The type of salt.

It becomes obvious that much higher

efficiencies and storage can be achieved

through the utilization of refined or pure salt

whenever possible, as this maximizes

optical transmission.

The solar pond is an effective collector of

diffuse, as well as direct radiation, and will

gather useful heat even on cloudy or

overcast days. Under ideal conditions, the

pond’s absorption efficiency can reach 50%

of incoming solar radiation, although actual

efficiencies average about 20% due to heat

losses. Once the lower layer of the pond

reaches over 60C the heat generated can be

drawn off through a heat exchanger and

used to drive a low temperature organic

mrankine cycle (ORC) turbine. This harnesses

the pressure differentials created when a

low boiling point organic fluid (or gas) is

boiled by heat from the pond via a heat

exchanger and cooled by a condenser to

drive a turbine to generate electricity. The

conversion efficiency of an organic rankine

cycle turbine driving an electric generator is

5 – 8 %. (which mean 1 – 3% from

insolation to electricity output).

therefore flow through the bypass valve

must be in backward direction. (Because

inside valve fluid must flow from high

pressure to low pressure)

By continuity equation,

As the pump and bypass valve are parallel

(i) Supercharging of IC engines

The method of increasing the inlet air

density, called supercharging, is usually

employed to increase the power output of

the engine. This is done by supplying air at

a pressure higher than the pressure at which

the engine naturally aspirates air from the

atmosphere by using a pressure boosting

device called a supercharger.

(ii) Morse Test:

The Morse test consists of obtaining

indicated power of the engine without any

elaborate equipment. The test consists of

making inoperative, in turn, each cylinder of

the engine and noting the reduction in brake

power developed.

This test is applicable only to multi cylinder

engines.

In this test the engine is first run at the

required speed by adjusting the throttle in SI

engine or the pump rack in CI engine and

the output is measured. The throttle rack is

locked in this position.

Then, one cylinder is cut out by short

circuiting the spark plug in the SI engine or

by disconnecting the injector in the CI

engine. Under this condition all the other

cylinders will motor the cut out cylinder and

the speed and output drop. The engine speed

is brought to its original value by reducing

the load.

If there are k cylinders, then

where, ip, bp and fp are respectively

indicated, brake and frictional power and

the suffix k stands for the cylinder number.

If the first cylinder is cut-off, it will not

produce any power but it will have friction,

(iii) Simple carburetor:

The process of preparation of combustible

mixture by mixing the proper amount of

fuel with air before admission to the engine

cylinder is called carburation. A device

which atomises the fuel and mixes it with

air and prepares the charge for Otto cycle

engine is called carburetor.

Simple Carburetor:

The carburetors are used on most SI engines

for preparation of combustible air – fuel

mixture charge. The figure shows a simple

carburetor, which provides an air – fuel

mixture for normal range at a single speed.

It consists of a float chamber, fuel discharge

nozzle and metering orifice, a venturi, a

throttle valve and a chock valve.

How it works: The basic carburetor as

shown in fig. is built around a hollow tube

called a throat. The downward motion of the

piston creates a partial vacuum inside the

cylinder that draws air into the carburetor’s

throat and past a nozzle that sprays fuel.

The mixture of air and fuel produced inside

the carburetor is delivered to the cylinder

for combustion.

The Kelvin-Planck statement of the second

law states: It is impossible for a heat engine

to produce net work in a complete cycle if it

exchange heat only with bodies at a single

Clausius’ statement of the second law gives:

It is impossible to construct a device which,

operating in a cycle, will produce no effect

other than the transfer of heat from a cooler

to a hotter body.

Heat cannot flow of itself from a body at a

lower temperature to a body at a higher

temperature. Some work must be expended

to achieve this.

Sol:

(i). Pyranometer : A pyranometer is a device

used to measure the “total hemispherical

solar radiation”. The total solar radiation

arriving at the outer edge of the atmosphere

is called the ‘solar constant’.

The working principle of this instrument is

that sensitive surface is exposed to total

(beam, diffuse and reflected from the earth

and surrounding) radiations. ‘

The description of pyranometer is given

below.

: 31 : ME–Conventional Test-13(Solutions)

ACE Engineering Academy Hyderabad|Delhi|Bhopal|Pune|Bhubaneswar| Lucknow|Patna|Bengaluru|Chennai|Vijayawada|Vizag|Tirupati|Kukatpally |Kolkata

Construction: It consists of a “black

surface” which receives the beam as well

diffuse radiations which rises heat. A “glass

dome” prevents the loss of radiation

received by the black surface. A

“thermopile” is a temperature sensor, and

consists of a number of thermocouples

connected in series to increase the

sensitivity. The “supporting stand” keeps

the black surface in a proper position.

Working: When the pyranometer is

exposed to sun, it starts receiving the

radiations. As a result, the surface

temperature starts rising due to absorption

of the radiation. The increase in the

temperature of the absorbing surface is

detected by the thermopile. The thermopile

generates a thermo emf which is

proportional to the radiations absorbed, this

thermo emf is calibrated in terms of the

received radiations. This will measure the

global solar radiations.

(ii) Pyrheliometer : A pyrheliometer is a

device used to measure “beam or direct

radiations”. It collimates the radiation to

determine the beam intensity as a function

of incident angle.

This instrument uses a collimated director

for measuring solar radiation from the sun

and from a small portion of the sky around

the sun at normal incidence.

The description of a thermoelectric type

pyrheliometer is given below:

Construction: In this instrument, two

identical blackened manganin strips A and

B are arranged in such a way that either can

be exposed to radiation at the base of

collimatimg tubes by moving a reversible

shutter.

: 32 : ESE – Offline Test-2017

ACE Engineering Academy Hyderabad|Delhi|Bhopal|Pune|Bhubaneswar| Lucknow|Patna|Bengaluru|Chennai|Vijayawada|Vizag|Tirupati|Kukatpally |Kolkata

Working : One strip is placed in radiation

and a current is passed through the shaded

strip to heat it to the same temperature as

the exposed strip. When there is no

difference in temperature, the electrical

energy supplied to shaded strip must equal

the solar radiation absorbed by the exposed

strip. Solar radiation is then determined by

equating the electrical energy to the product

of incident solar radiation, strip area and

absorptance.

(iii) Sunshine Recorder : A Sunshine recorder

is a device used to measure the “hours of

bright sunshine in a day”.

The description of a sunshine recorder is

given below :

Construction: It consist of a ‘glass-sphere’

installed in a section of “spherical metal

bowl” having grooves for holding a recorder

card strip and the glass sphere.

Working : The glass-sphere, which acts as

a convex lens, focuses the sun’s rays/ beam

to a point on the card strip held in a groove

in the spherical bowl mounted

concentrically with the sphere.

Whenever there is a bright sunshine, the

image formed is intense enough to burn a

spot on the card strip. Through the day, the

sun moves across the sky, the image moves

along the strip. Thus a burnt space whose

length is proportional to the duration of

sunshine is obtained on the strip.
