principle of turbomachinery pdf 16

Also known as a trompe. A mixture of air and water generated through turbulence is allowed to fall into a subterranean chamber where the air separates from the water. The weight of falling water compresses the air in the top of the chamber. A submerged outlet from the chamber allows water to flow to the surface at a lower height than the intake. An outlet in the roof of the chamber supplies the compressed air to the surface. A facility on this principle was built on the Montreal River at Ragged Shutes near Cobalt, Ontario in 1910 and supplied 5,000 horsepower to nearby mines.[20]

Collisions commonly occur in contact sports (such as football) and racket and bat sports (such as baseball, golf, tennis, etc.). Consider a collision in football between a fullback and a linebacker during a goal-line stand. The fullback plunges across the goal line and collides in midair with the linebacker. The linebacker and fullback hold each other and travel together after the collision. The fullback possesses a momentum of 100 kg*m/s, East before the collision and the linebacker possesses a momentum of 120 kg*m/s, West before the collision. The total momentum of the system before the collision is 20 kg*m/s, West (review the section on adding vectors if necessary). Therefore, the total momentum of the system after the collision must also be 20 kg*m/s, West. The fullback and the linebacker move together as a single unit after the collision with a combined momentum of 20 kg*m/s. Momentum is conserved in the collision. A vector diagram can be used to represent this principle of momentum conservation; such a diagram uses an arrow to represent the magnitude and direction of the momentum vector for the individual objects before the collision and the combined momentum after the collision.

Momentum is conserved for any interaction between two objects occurring in an isolated system. This conservation of momentum can be observed by a total system momentum analysis or by a momentum change analysis. Useful means of representing such analyses include a momentum table and a vector diagram. Later in Lesson 2, we will use the momentum conservation principle to solve problems in which the after-collision velocity of objects is predicted. 350c69d7ab
