In orifice why the pressure and temperature are decreases?
Answer Posted / jagan
Orifice is a small hole like a nozzle. When a high pressure
fluid passes through the orifice, Pressure gets reduced
suddenly and the velocity of the fluid gets increased. Also
the heat transfer rate increases. We know that Heat transfer
rat is directly proportional to the difference in
temperature, Area and the heat transfer coefficient. Heat
transfer Coefficient remains constant for a fluid at a
particular temperature.
Q= KA(T1-T2)
If the heat transfer rate increases, it seems the
difference in temperature gets increased. There is no way in
reduction of inlet temperature of the orifice. As a result,
The outlet temperature of the orifice gets reduced.
Hence the pressure and temperature gets reduced when
it passes through orifice.

What are the two basic types of steam turbines?
2. Dry saturated steam at 3.5 bar is expanded through a convergent nozzle to 2.2 bar. The exit area is 5 sq. cm. Calculate the exit velocity and mass flow rate, assuming isentropic expansion and super saturated flow. b) A cast iron cylinder head is fastened to a cylinder of 750mm bore with 12 stud bolts. The maximum pressure inside the cylinder is 3 Mpa. The stiffness of part is thrice the stiffness of the bolt. What should be the initial tightening load so that the point is leak proof at maximum pressure? Also choose a suitable bolt for the above application 2 The propeller shaft of a marine engine is to transmit 600 kW at 1200 rpm, without a significant bending. The efficiency of the propeller is 88% at 32 knots ( 1 knot = 1085 km/hr). If the slenderness ratio is less than 50 and the permissible shear stress should not exceed 65 Mpa. Determine the diameter of shaft. 3 A semi-elliptic leaf spring consists of two extra full-length leaves and six graduated length leaves, including the master leaf. Each leaf is 7.2 mm thick and 65 mm wide. The centre-to-centre distance between the two eyes is 1.3m. The leaves are pre-stressed in such a way that when the load is maximum, stress induced in all leaves are equal to 380 N/mm sq. Determine the maximum force that the spring can withstand
