Sol–1: (b)Since R-22 have limited miscibility inlubricating oil and it again reduces astemperature goes down so it is notrecommended at very low temperature.

Sol–2: (c)Roll forces can be reduced by any of thefollowing means: Reducing friction; Using smaller-diameter rolls,to reduce

the contact area; Taking smaller reductions per pass, to

reduce the contact area; rolling at elevated temperatures, to

lower the strength of the material.Sol–3: (d)

It is the process of heating of air withoutadding or removing any moisture content.

It is clear from psychrometric chart thatrelative humidity of the air decreases.

Sol–4: (a)Thermal conductivity of gases mainlydepends on the intra-molecular collisions.In case of gases as the temperature increasesthe intra-molecular collisions increaseswhich are sole responsible for heat conductionin gases. So conductivity of gases increaseswith increase in temperature.

Sol–5: (a)In shell and tube type heat exchangernormally, liquid flows through tubes andgas/steam with low heat transfer coefficienton the shell side. So that the overall heattransfer coefficient can be increased byincreasing velocity of liquid.

Sol–6: (c)

1. Statement 1 is fundamental law ofgearing.

2. As centre distance changes, the pressureangle also changes i.e. increased centredistance has higher pressure angle orvice-versa.

3. Statement 3 is wrong because in com-pound gear train, the velocity ratio de-pends on product of teeth of driving gearsdivided by product driven gear. Hencenumber of teeth of intermediate gearsalso play role.

4. Statement 4 is definition of epicyclic geartrain.

Sol–7: (d)Speed of gear A relative to armC = NA – NC; Speed of gear B relative toarm C = NB – NC since the gears A and Bare meshing directly, they will revolve inopposite directions

NB – NC = 2NC NB = 3NCSo, for three revolutions of arm C, NB = 3× 3 = 9 revolutions.

Sol–8: (b)For meshing gears, both pressure angle andthe module must be same.

Sol–9: (c)base circle radius = pitch circle radius ×cos

Sol–10: (b)Air: Aircraft always use air refrigerationadvantages.Ammonia: Ammonia greatest applicationis found in large industrial scale refrig-erating.Carbon Dioxides: Carbon dioxide is alsocalled as dry ice and is used as direct con-tact freezing of food.

R-11: It is exclusively used in large cen-trifugal compressor systems of 200 TRand above due to the low density and highspecific volume

Sol–11: (d)From human body heat equation.

M = W + Q + SHeat change between man and hisenvironment isM – W = Q + S

Note:The rate at which human body producesheat is known as metabolic rate (M). Thisheat is utilized in three ways.

WRate of Work done by the man

Q Rate of heat loss by man in terms of con-vection, radiation and evaporation.

S Rate of heat stored in the body tomaintain the temperature of the body.Hence,

M = W + Q + SSol–12: (a)

Sol–13: (c)If fg is the film coefficient of heat transferthrough the air film, we have for sensibleheat transfer between the air and the wettedsurface

sdQ = fg(t – ts) dA

• Also, if Kw is the diffusion coefficient ofwater vapour through the air film, andif sfgh is the latent heat at ts, then forlatent heat transfer between theunsaturated air and wetted surface,

LdQ =

sfg vh dm

where vdm = Kw(W – Ws) dA

so that LdQ = Kw(W – Ws) sfgh dA

The quantity (h–h s) is the enthalpypotential. Thus, the driving force for thetotal heat transfer is the difference in theenthalpy h of unsaturated air and theenthalpy h s of saturated air at thetemperature of the wetted surface.

When the activity level is high, therequired indoor temperature will belower. Similarly, when air velocityincreases, effective temperature, alsoincreases.

Sol–16: (a)The conditioned air supplied to the roommust have the capacity to take upsimultaneously both the room sensible heatand room latent heat loads. The point S onpsychrometric chart represents the supplyair condition and point R represents theroom design condition. The line SR is calledroom sensible heat factor line (RSHF line).The slope of the line gives the ratio of theroom sensible heat (RSH) to the room latentheat (RLH). Thus, the supply air havingits conditions given by any point on thisline will satisfy the requirements of theroom with adequate supply of such air.

Sol–17: (b)Wet bulb temperature is the lowesttemperature that can be reached byevaporating water into the air. On a hot day,when the wbt is low, rapid evaporation andhence cooling takes place at the skin’s surface.As the wbt approaches the air temperature,less cooling occurs and the skin temperaturemay begin to rise. When the wet bulbtemperature exceeds the skin’s temperature,no net evaporation occurs and the body

temperature can rise quite rapidly.Fortunately, the wet bulb temperature isalmost always considerably below thetemperature of the skin.

Sol–21: (d)During chemical dehumidification, as theair comes in contact with thesechemicals, the moisture gets condensed outof air and gives up latent heat. Due tocondensation, the specific humiditydecreases and the heat of condensationsupplies sensible heat for heating the airand thus increasing its dry bulbtemperature. Thus, wet bulb temperatureremains constant. Since wbt line andenthalpy line are parallel to each other inpsychrometric chart hence enthalpy alsoremains constant.

The point at which, a line parallel to thedbt line or at constant humidity ratio, cutsthe saturation curve is called dew pointtemperature. For saturated air, dbt, dpt &wbt are same. Dehumidification can beachieved along with both heating andcooling. At constant enthalpy, wbt remainsconstant even with addition of moisturebecause constant enthalpy line and constantwbt lines are parallel in psychrometricchart.

Time seriesdecomposition is a method where the abovefour variations are isolated individuallyand their effect on forecast is studied.

Sol–34: (a)In ABC inventory control, inventory itemsare classified into A, B and C categorydepending on their usage value. Usagevalue is given by number of units requiredmultiplied by cost per unit.For A category, inventory is kept almostnil and frequent review is done as usagevalue is high and have high stock outcost, on the other hand, for C categoryitems high inventory is kept as usuagevalue is low, so inventory is reviewed after

long period because of low stock out cost.Sol–35: (a)

(1) Steady-state conditions exist.(2) Thermal conductivity of medium of

heat transfer is constant.(3) Heat flow is one dimensional.(4) Uniform wall temperature has no

meaning in this expression but thecross-section of medium perpendicu-lar to heat flow has uniform tem-perature to ensure one dimensionalflow.

NTU =min

UAC

Cmin – Product of mass flow rate multi-plied specific heatU – Overall heat transfer coefficient.Both Cmin and U have nothing to do withgeometric parameter but related to flowparameters so NTU depends upon area‘A’ i.e. size of heat exchanger along withCmin and U.

The convergent part of a nozzle is usuallysharp, while the divergent part is gradual.Most of the friction loss occurs in thedivergent portion of the nozzle. If thesemi-divergence angle is large, therewill be flow separation from the wall withthe formation of eddies, which entailsenergy loss. If the angle is small, the

length of nozzle becomes large to providethe desired exit flow area, causing moreenergy loss due to friction. Usually, varies from 5° to 8°.
