The atmosphere within a room is at 70 °F dry-bulb temperature, 50 percent degree of saturation, and 14.696 psia pressure. The in
side surface tempera- ture of the windows is 40 °F. Will moisture con- dense out of the air upon the window glass?
1 answer:
Answer:
Given that the temperature of the window is below the dew point it will condensate.
Explanation:
A psychrometric chart (like the one attached) will give you the information needed. This chart is for 14.696 psia.
On the bottom horizontal axes you have the dry-bulb temperature, in this case 70°F, going up from this point you can reach the 50% relative humidity curve (red point on chart), going horizontally from this point to the 100% relative humidity you get the dew point temperature (the point at which moisture will condensate) (blue point on chart). In this case the dew point is 50°C. Given that the temperature of the window is below the dew point it will condensate.

6.5 × 10¹⁵/ cm³
Explanation:
Thinking process:
The relation
With the expression Ef - Ei = 0.36 × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹
and ni = 1.5 × 10¹⁰
Temperature, T = 300 K
K = 1.38 × 10⁻²³
This generates N₀ = 1.654 × 10¹⁶ per cube
Now, there are 10¹⁶ per cubic centimeter
Hence,

Explanation:
1.
Given:
- height of the window pane,
- width of the window pane,
- thickness of the pane,
- thermal conductivity of the glass pane,
- temperature of the inner surface,
- temperature of the outer surface,
<u>According to the Fourier's law the rate of heat transfer is given as:</u>
here:
A = area through which the heat transfer occurs =
dT = temperature difference across the thickness of the surface =
dx = t = thickness normal to the surface =
2.
- air spacing between two glass panes,
- area of each glass pane,
- thermal conductivity of air,
- temperature difference between the surfaces,
<u>Assuming layered transfer of heat through the air and the air between the glasses is always still:</u>
