Advantage and disadvantages of Bessemer process of steel making

Engineering
1 answer:
Snowcat [4.5K]2 years ago
7 0

Advantages:

- allowed steel to be produced without fuel

- using the impurities of the iron to create the necessary heat

- reduced the costs of steel production

Disadvantages:

- could convert only a pig iron low in phosphorus and sulfur

- these elements could have been removed by adding a basic flux such as lime, but the basic sl*g produced would have degraded the acidic refractory lining of Bessemer's converter.

An old refrigerator consumes 247 W of power. Assuming that the refrigerator operates for 19 hours everyday, what is the annual o
german

Answer:

The annual operating cost of the refrigerator is $102.78.

Explanation:

Power consumed by the refrigerator = 247 W = 247/1000 = 0.247 kW

Daily operation of the refrigerator = 19 hours

Annual operation of the refrigerator = 365 × 19 = 6,935 hours

Annual energy consumed = 0.247 kW × 6,935 hours = 1712.945 kWh

1 kWh of electricity cost $0.06

1712.945 kWh will cost 1712.945 × $0.06 = $102.78

Annual operating cost = $102.78

PythonA group of statisticians at a local college has asked you to create a set of functionsthat compute the median and mode of
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

  1. def median(l):
  2.    if(len(l) == 0):
  3.       return 0
  4.    else:
  5.        l.sort()
  6.        if(len(l)%2 == 0):
  7.            index = int(len(l)/2)
  8.            mid = (l[index-1] + l[index]) / 2
  9.        else:
  10.            mid = l[len(l)//2]  
  11.        return mid  
  12. def mode(l):
  13.    if(len(l)==0):
  14.        return 0
  15.    mode = max(set(l), key=l.count)
  16.    return mode  
  17. def mean(l):
  18.    if(len(l)==0):
  19.        return 0
  20.    sum = 0
  21.    for x in l:
  22.        sum += x
  23.    mean = sum / len(l)
  24.    return mean
  25. lst = [5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 12, 13, 15, 25, 30, 45, 61]
  26. print(mean(lst))
  27. print(median(lst))
  28. print(mode(lst))

Explanation:

Firstly, we create a median function (Line 1). This function will check if the the length of list is zero and also if it is an even number. If the length is zero (empty list), it return zero (Line 2-3). If it is an even number, it will calculate the median by summing up two middle index values and divide them by two (Line 6-8). Or if the length is an odd, it will simply take the middle index value and return it as output (Line 9-10).

In mode function, after checking the length of list, we use the max function to estimate the maximum count of the item in list (Line 17) and use it as mode.

In mean function,  after checking the length of list,  we create a sum variable and then use a loop to add the item of list to sum (Line 23-25). After the loop, divide sum by the length of list to get the mean (Line 26).

In the main program, we test the three functions using a sample list and we shall get
