BriefBrief: Design Verification Task You are required to design a tower for an onshore wind turbine. Geometrical details for the tower as well as total mass of the nacelle and diameter of the blades are reported in table T1 for your group ID. You are asked to produce a tentative design for the tower, providing a preliminary analysis of its structural integrity and safety. A complete guideline for a rigorous analysis is provided by BS EN IEC ...

Question: Mini-project 4: Heat Exchangers You’ve been tasked with analyzing a new heat exchanger system for small-scale dairy farms which pre-cools the raw milk coming from the cows before entering the larger chilled storage tank. The heat exchanger is of a shell-and-tube-type with 4 shells, and within each shell there are 22 tubes each making 2 passes. The tubes are 2 m long, with an inner diameter of 8 mm, and an outer diameter of 12 mm...
