1 / 10

The previous season you could recuperate only 25% of your initially stored energy, but this season a big improvement in your drivetrain allows you to recuperate 63% of the initially stored energy. Knowing that you had 9.6 kWh of energy in your accumulator during the last season, how much energy must your new accumulator have, if you assume, that it’s the same length and speed? Give answer in kWh to one decimal place.

2 / 10

An air stream

dot{M}_L = 5.5 kg/s,

cp_L=1 kJ/(kgK)

is to be heated in a plate heat exchanger from

θ_L′=20∘C

θ_L′′=150∘C

. For this purpose, a flue gas stream

dot{M}_R = 7.22

cp_R=1.1 kJ/(kgK)

with a temperature of

θ_R′=300∘C

is available. The overall heat transfer coefficient is

W/(m^2*K)

.
What is the required heating surface AAA if the fluid streams are arranged in counterflow?

a. 328,1 m^2

b. 281,7 m^2

c. 314,12 m^2

3 / 10

Unit: kg/(m^3), to decimal number seperated by: . (exp. 15.3), write only the number in the field below

4 / 10

A metal piece heated to

θ_1,M=1000∘C

with a mass of

M_M=6.5 kg

was cooled in a completely heat-insulated iron container filled with water. The mass of the water in the container is

M_W=10 kg

and the mass of the container is

M_B=2 kg.

The initial temperatures of the water and the container were the same and amounted to

θ_1,W=10∘C

. After complete thermal equilibrium between the immersed metal piece, the water, and the container, a temperature of

was established.
What is the average specific heat capacity of the metal piece

c

in the temperature range between

and

Input the result in kJ/(kg*K), round to 3 decimal numbers sperated by a point (example: 0.136).

5 / 10

A vehicle with the mass 190kg, wheelbase 1,56m and tyre static radius 222mm is weighed. Scales measure 83kg (front) and 107kg (rear) when the car measured on the perfectly flat ground and the same values when the front axle is elevated by 0,85m. What is the car’s COG height? Give answer to the nearest whole number in mm

6 / 10

Answer in MJ, round to one decimal number (example 45.7), no unit in the answer

7 / 10

A hall with a floor area of 500 m² is to be equipped with underfloor heating, which will be operated at an average temperature of 33°C.

What percentage of the floor area must be used as heating surface in order to ensure an indoor temperature of 18°C when the outside temperature is -15°C?

Result in m^2 as an integer

8 / 10

The given gearbox consists of two gear sets with wheels 1, 2 and 3, 4 respectively. The wheels are fixed to their shafts. Calculate the drive speed (in rpm) of wheel 4?

Given: n1=600 rpm, z1=18, z2=90, z3=24, z4=120

9 / 10

A helicopter of mass 4200 kg is carrying a crate using a light extensible rope. The crate has a total mass of 800 kg, including its contents. The helicopter and crate are accelerating upwards at 2.0 ms^-2. What is the tension in the rope? Use gravititational field strength g is 9,81 N/kg. Air resistance can be ignored. Give answer to nearest whole number in Newtons

10 / 10

A ball at a height of 20ft on Earth with a gravitational field strength of 9.81 N/kg, gained 284 J of gravitational potential energy. Calculate the mass of the ball. Give answer to two decimal place in kg.
