HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 3

A, B, C are the three angles of a Δ. If A − B = 15° and B − C = 30°. Then ∠A is equal to :

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 3

Since A, B and C are the angles of a Δ,
∴ A + B + C = 180° .................... (1)
According to question,
A – B = 15° ;
⇒ A = B + 15°...................(2)
B – C = 30°;
⇒ B = C + 30°;....................(3)
Put the value of B from equation (2) in Equation (1), we will get
∴ A = B + 15°
A = C + 30° + 15°
A = C + 45° ......................(4)
From a equation,
∴ A + B + C = 180°
⇒ (C + 45°) + (C + 30°) + C = 180°
⇒ 3C + 45° + 30° = 180°
⇒ 3C = 180° – 75° = 105°
⇒ C = 35° ...........................(5)
From equation (4)
A = C + 45°
Put the value of C from equation (5) , we will get
∴ ∠A = 35° + 45° = 80°.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 19

To avoid separation, the most suitable ratio of throat diameter and pipe diameter in a venturi meter is ______.

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 19
Venturi meter: Venturi meter is a device used to measure the flow rate of a fluid flowing through a pipe.

The working of the venturi meter is based on the principle of Bernoulli’s equation.

The Venturi meter is divided into 3 parts:

  1. Convergent cone

  2. Divergent cone

  3. Throat

Important Point:

Convergent cone:

The angle of convergence is generally 20-22 degrees.

The length of the convergent cone is 2.7(D-d).

Here 'D' is the diameter of the inlet section, and 'd' is the diameter of the throat.

Throat:

The length is equal to the diameter of the throat.

Generally, the diameter of the throat is 1/3 to 3/4 of the diameter of the inlet pipe.

Diverging cone:

The diverging section has an angle of 5 to 15 degrees.

The diverging angle is less than the converging angle.

Although the desirable ratio of throat diameter and pipe diameter lies between 1/3 to 3/4.

The most appropriate option is 0.33 to 0.5, as the energy losses would minimize if the area difference is minimized.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 20

When a real gas undergoes Joule-Thomson expansion, the temperature

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 20
Joule – Thomson coefficient:- When the gas in steady flow passes through a construction, e.g., in an orifice or valve, it normally experiences a temperature change. From the first law of thermodynamics, such a process is isenthalpic, and one can usually define a Joule – Thomson coefficient as

The numerical value of the slope of an isenthalpic on a T-p diagram at any point is called the Joule-Thomson coefficient and is denoted by μj

A measure of the change in temperature results from a drop in pressure across the construction.

If μ is +ve, then the temperature will fall during throttling.

So from the figure, it is clear that temperature may increase or decrease it will depend on the value of μ.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 21

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 21
The Triple point is a line on the P - v diagram where all the three phases, solid, liquid, and gases, exist in equilibrium. At a pressure below the triple point line, the substance cannot exist in the liquid phase, and the substance, when heated, transforms from solid to vapour by absorbing the latent heat of sublimation from the surroundings.

HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 30

If air is heated without changing its moisture content, the dew point will _____.

Detailed Solution for HPCL Mechanical Engineer Mock Test - 3 - Question 30
Concept

Dry Bulb Temperature: Actual temperature of gas or mixture of gases.

Wet-bulb temperature: Temperature obtained by an accurate thermometer having a wick moistened with distilled water.

Dew point temperature: Temperature at which the liquid droplets just appear when the moist air is cooled continuously.

Sensible heating: Moisture content of air remains constant, so specific humidity is constant, temperature increases as it flows over a heating coil.

Sensible cooling: The moisture content of air remains constant, so specific humidity is constant, but its temperature decreases as it flows over a cooling coil.

According to the question:

If air is heated without changing its moisture content, ⇒ Sensible heating.

Sensible heating: It is the process of increasing the Dry bulb temperature at a constant specific humidity.

Effects of sensible heating:

  • Dry bulb temperature increases
  • Sp. Humidity or humidity ratio remains constant
  • Dew point temperature is constant
  • Relative humidity decreases
  • Enthalpy increases
  • Specific Volume Increases
  • Wet-bulb temperature increases
