GATE Mock Test Mechanical Engineering (ME) - 4 - Question 11

A radiator has a cooling pipe of diameter 40 mm and negligible thickness. Fins are attached on the outer surface of the pipe in order to increase the heat transfer surface area on the air side. The heat transfer coefficient on inner and outer surfaces are 2000 W/m2K and 150 W/m2K respectively. If the effective surface area on the finned side is 12 times the inner surface area, the overall heat transfer coefficient of this heat exchanger based on inside surface area (in W/m2K) is_________.

GATE Mock Test Mechanical Engineering (ME) - 4 - Question 21

The velocity of water (before mixing with abrasives) at the orifice of the abrasive water jet machining head is 900 m/s. After complete mixing with the abrasive, the velocity of the water abrasive jet is 787.6 m/s. Discharge coefficients considered to be unity. If the water mass flow rate is 2.8 kg/mm by considering velocity of abrasives at entry as 0, the abrasive mass flow rate is nearest to (in kg /min) is

Detailed Solution for GATE Mock Test Mechanical Engineering (ME) - 4 - Question 21
Given Vw = 900 m/s, V = 787.6 m/s, mw = 2.8 kg/min

∴ maVa + mwVw = V (mw + ma)

mw X Vw = V(mw + ma)

≅0.4 kg/min

GATE Mock Test Mechanical Engineering (ME) - 4 - Question 22

Match List I (Fluid properties) with List II (Relate terms) and select the correct answer using the codes given below the lists:

Detailed Solution for GATE Mock Test Mechanical Engineering (ME) - 4 - Question 22
Capillary action occurs because water molecules bond each other strongly due to forces of cohesion and adhesion where water molecules are attracted and stick to other substances such as glass or paper. Adhesion of water to the surface of a material will cause an upward force on the liquid. The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the surface material is stronger than the cohesive forces between the water molecules. The height to which capillary action will take water is limited by surface tension and gravity.

Cavitation may occur when local static pressure in a fluid reach a level below the vapor pressure of the liquid at the actual temperature. According the Bernoulli Equation this may happen when a fluid accelerates in a control valve or around a pump impeller.

For fluids the shear stress, τ is a function of the rate of strain dγ/dt. The property of a fluid to resist the growth of shear deformation is called viscosity.

Specific gravity is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a reference substance.

Hence,

Capillarity → Surface tension

Vapour pressure → Cavitation

Viscosity → Shear stress

Specific gravity → Density of water

The _______ number is a significant dimensionless parameter for forced parameter convection and the _______ number is a significant dimensionless parameter for natural convection.

Detailed Solution for GATE Mock Test Mechanical Engineering (ME) - 4 - Question 24
The Reynolds number is a significant dimensionless parameter for forced parameter convection and the Grashof number is a significant dimensionless parameter of natural convection. Reynolds number is a dimensionless number used in fluid mechanics to indicate whether fluid flow past a body or in a duct is steady or turbulent. The Grashof number (Gr) is a dimensionless number in fluid dynamics and heat transfer which approximates the ratio of the buoyancy to viscous force acting on a fluid. It frequently arises in the study of situations involving natural convection and is analogous to the Reynolds number.
