Problem1 - Ceramics (attaching table & image under) (a) Today most turbo charged car engines have their rotors made of silicon nitride (Si3N4) rather than the traditional nickel alloy (Figure 1).
i) Justify this material switch from metals to ceramics by comparing FOUR relevant material properties of silicon nitride with that of the previously used Nickel alloy.
[Compare using a “Table” format and Granta-EduPack to find the property values].

ii) Draw a flow chart to outline the main process steps of the Si3N4 ceramic turbo charger rotor manufacture and assembly, and discuss two microstructural features that must be controlled to within strict limits during manufacture.

(b) 20 silicon nitride (Si3N4) samples from the same batch were 3-point bend tested, the results for the fracture strengths are given in Table 1 below.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
