A primary runway is being designed for a new airport to serve airport approach category B. As part of this work it is required to design two con- secutive vertical curves (a crest vertical curve followed by a sag vertical curve) to be located midway along the length of the runway. The design should satisfy all the grade and minimum length requirements.
If conditions are such that the crest vertical curve connect grades of +.5% and +1.5%, determine all the properties of both curves that will be necessary to set out the curves. The elevation and station of the point of intersection of the two tangents of the crest vertical curve are 556.50ft and 595+45.00, respectively, and the distance between the points of intersections of the vertical curves is 975ft.

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
