Answer: Option D is not true of hydraulic valves. A hydraulic valve is a device that can change the opening degree of liquid flow path
Explanation:
The pilot check valve allows flow of liquid in one direction and blocks flow in the opposite direction
Answer:
809.98°C
Explanation:
STEP ONE: The first step to take in order to solve this particular Question or problem is to find or determine the Biot value.
Biot value = (heat transfer coefficient × length) ÷ thermal conductivity.
Biot value = (220 × 0.1)÷ 110 = 0.2.
Biot value = 0.2.
STEP TWO: Determine the Fourier number. Since the Biot value is greater than 0.1. Tis can be done by making use of the formula below;
Fourier number = thermal diffusivity × time ÷ (length)^2.
Fourier number = (3 × 60 × 33.9 × 10^-6)/( 0.1)^2 = 0.6102.
STEP THREE: This is the last step for the question, here we will be calculating the temperature of the center plane of the brass plate after 3 minutes.
Thus, the temperature of the center plane of the brass plane after 3 minutes = (1.00705) (0.89199) (900- 15) + 15.
= > the temperature of the center plane of the brass plane after 3 minutes = 809.98°C.
