5) Coolant circulation pump X for continuous operation in a nuclear power station has M yrs. and MTTR 10 hrs. A standby older pump Y with the same capacity is also used with MTBF -22 mo. and MTTR 15 hrs. Perfect switching between pumps A and B of the plant is assumed. (0) Draw the detailed Markov process graph of the cooling pump system and determine the limiting (steady-state) probability of all states that it is possible to find the...
5) Coolant circulation pump X for continuous operation in a nuclear power station has MTBF = 2 yrs. and MTTR = 10 hrs. A standby older pump Y with the same capacity is also used with MTBF = 22 mo. and MTTR = 15 hrs. Perfect switching between pumps A and B of the plant is assumed. (i) Draw the detailed Markov process graph of the cooling pump system and determine the limiting (steady-state) probability of all states that it...

5. Consider a quantum mechanical system made of N identical particles. There are total M possible energy levels that each of these particles can occupy. (a) According to statistical thermodynamics, the probability that a particle occu- pies ith energy level with energy e; is proportional to e-Bes where B = r and T is the temperature. k is a universal constant called Boltzmann constant. What is the probability for a given particle to occupyith energy level? (b) On average, how...
- A distributor claims that the chance that any of the three major components of a computer (CPU, monitor, and keyboard) is defective is 5%. Calculate the chance that exactly one component is defective in a computer set. - There is a probability of 5% that a milk container is underweight throughout of packaging line. Suppose milk containers are shipped to retail outlets in boxes of 10 containers. What is the probability that no more than 1 milk container is...
The system below uses a centrifugal pump to circulate water at 19°C, having a vapor pressure of 2320 Pa, from a low reservoir to a higher one through a cast iron pipe with a diameter of 35 cm and surface roughness of 0.25 mm. The minor head losses upstream of the pump are represented by EK1 = 0,6 and downstream by & K2 = 7. After several months of usage, it is noticed that the installation is noisy and consumes...
h A hot water heating system pumps water through a fired heater (furnace) then to a convector to transfer the heat to the room air. (In a real system there would be many convectors in parallel / series, but we have simplified the system to make the details easier to manage.) The piping is 2 inch schedule 40 commercial steel (roughness 0.05 mm) with a total length of 100 m The furnace and the convector can be represented by minor...

1. Suppose an oil pump is producing 800 gallons per hour for the first 5 hours of operation. For the next 4 hours, the pumps production is increased to 900 gallons per hour, and then for the next 3 hours, the production is cut to 600 gallons per hour. Gollow how a) Make a graph modeling this situation. b) The term "area under a graph" is the area between the graph and the horizontal axis. Find the area under the...
2. (15 pt., 5 pt. each) A player in the Mega Millions lottery picks five different integers between 1 and 70, inclusive, and a sixth integer between 1 and 25, inclusive, which may duplicate one of the earlier five integers. The player wins the jackpot (currently $229 million) if the first five numbers picked match the first five numbers drawn (in any order) and the sixth number picked matches the sixth number drawn. a. What is the probability that a...
