Engineering Examples in z3
DESCRIPTION
- Basic Engineering examples in z3.
- Reflecting different domains like Engineering, Statistics, Medicine, etc.
- Set of cases that are progressively complex on units are used to show the user how it goes from simple to complex cases.
- Testing how we can make better solutions to the standard problems compared to other software, due to the presence of units.
Examples
ExampleS1: Chemical Engineering
An exhaust pipe is 75mm diameter and it is cooled by surrounding it with a water jacket. The exhaust gas enters at 350C and the water enters at 10C. The surface heat transfer coefficients for the gas and water are 300 and 1500 W/m2K respectively. The wall is thin so the temperature drop due to conduction is negligible. The gasses have a mean specific heat capacity Cp of 1130 J/kgK and they must be cooled to 100C. The specific heat capacity of the water is 4190 J/kgK. The flow rate of the gas and water is 200 and 1400 kg/h respectively. Calculate the required length of pipe for parellel flow and contra flow.
* The following example demonstrates how a problem is solved when units are used. * The units may be SI, Imperial or a mix of both. * Code shows how to assign a unit or convert a unit. * 3 types of calculations are shown: Normal, using Function, using Function1 in Function2.

A 1/2-in. (12.7-mm) diameter Copperweld bar consists of a steel core 3/8 in. (9.53 mm) indiameter and a copper skin 1/16 in. (1.6 mm) thick. What is the elongation of a 1-ft (0.3-m) length of this bar, and what is the internal force between the steel and copper arising from a temperature rise of 80°F (44.4°C)?
