Question 58 – In the design of a solar power system steps of calculations below are followed : (a) The power output of the inverter of the of the solar panel is 100 watts. What is the power input, Pin to the inverter when the efficiency of the inverter is 50 %? (b) If the rated power of the inverter is 300 watts, how many inverter is needed for the solar panel? (c) Charge controller of V = 12 volts is used to supply power to the inverter. What is the input current I to the inverter? (d) If the charge controller capacity is 10 A, how many charge controllers are needed? (e) If a biochemical mixer consumes 100 watts, running for 2 hours per day, what is the energy consumption in kilowatt hour per day? (f) What is the input energy needed when the efficiency of the inverter is 50 %? (g) If your area receives 2.88 hours of full sunlight per day, how much energy, in kilowatt hour can be produced per day when one solar panel can produce 20 watts of power? (h) If you know that you have to produce total energy as the answer for (f), how many solar panels are needed? (i) Each V = 12 V battery has 5 ampere hours. If the total energy needed is in answer (f), then how many batteries are needed to run the biochemical mixer if without sunlight for 3 days?

Answer 58 – (a) Input = Output / Efficiency = 100 watts / 0.5 = 200 watts. (b) Number of inverter = Input / Rated power = 200 / 300 = 2 / 3 < 1. Practically only 1 inverter is needed. (c) I = Pin / V = 200 / 12 = 16.667 A. (d) Number of charge controllers = Input / Rated current = 16.667 / 10 = 1.6667 < 2. Practically only 2 are needed. (e) Energy consumption = 0.1 kilowatt x 2 hours / day = 0.2 kilowatt hour per day. (f) Input energy = Energy consumption / Efficiency = 0.2 / 0.5 = 0.4 kilowatt hour per day. (g) Energy generation per day per solar panel = 2.88 hours x 0.02 kilowatt = 0.0576 kilowatt hour. (h) Number of solar panels needed = Answer for (f) / Answer for (g) = 0.4 / 0.0576 = 6.944 < 7. Practically only 7 are needed. (i) Ampere hour per day to run the load = 0.4 kilowatt hour per day / 12 V = 1 / 30 k. Total ampere hour needed for 3 days = 1 / 30 k x 3 = 0.1 k. Number of batteries needed = 0.1 k / 5 = 100 / 5 = 20.

THERMODYNAMIC - EXAMPLE 10.1 : The water is superheated steam at 440 degree Celsius and 17.32 megapascals. Estimate the enthalpy of the steam above. From the steam table for water at 440 degree Celsius, enthalpy of steam, h at 18 megapascals is 3103.7 kilojoules per kilogram and at 16 megapascal is 3062.8 kilojoules per kilogram. Assume that h = mP + c where P is pressure; m and c are constants at fixed temperature with small differences in P.
i need last year question paper of GATE exam of chemical stream.but i failed i geting exam papers.soits humble request to u that if any body found last years GATE exam paper of chemical stream then send it to on this mail address.i shall be thankful to u for this. mail address:- sachin_4255@yahoo.co.in thank you.

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.5 : In an American style option for share market, 2 persons - A and B agree to the following : B is required to sell 100 shares of IBMS to A for $85 per share anytime that A wants in the next 8 months. A will pay B $2 per share up front, non-refundable for this option. IBMS involves in petrochemical processing. IBMS stock is currently selling for $80 per share. (a) If A did not buy the share of IBMS from B after 8 months, how much will B earn? (b) If the share of IBMS goes up to $100 / share in 6 months later : (i) how much should A pay B for 100 shares according to their optional agreement? (ii) how much will A earn from 100 shares purchased from B when all the 100 shares are sold to the open market? (iii) how much net profit will A earn for selling 100 shares to the open market?
Question 43 - In a non-dilute absorber, the inlet gas stream consists of 8 mol % carbon dioxide in nitrogen. By contact with room temperature water at atmospheric pressure, 65 % of the carbon dioxide from a gas stream has been removed. (a) Find the mole ratio of carbon dioxide and nitrogen gases at inlet and outlet gas streams. (b) The Henry’s Law provides y = 1640 x for carbon dioxide in water. Find the mole ratio when x = 0.0000427. Mole ratio is y / (1 - y) for y.
ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 34.14 : For a formula of y = [ 1 - 1 / (1 + r) ^ n ] / r, let y = present value, r = interest rate / year, n = number of years to future value of 1 : (a) Find a simple mathematical relationship of y as a function of r when n = 1 million years. (b) What is the present value of $10000, if the annual discount rate is 10 %, forever?
