A copper-constantan thermocouple is to be used to measure temperatures between 0 and 200°C. The e.m.f. at 0°C is 0 mV, at 100°C
it is 4.277 mV and at 200°C it is 9.286 mV. What will be the non-linearity error at 100°C as a percentage of the full range output if a linear relationship is assumed between e.m.f. and temperature over the full range?

Answer:
a. 9947 m
b. 99476 times
c. 2*10^11 molecules
Explanation:
a) To find the mean free path of the air molecules you use the following formula:
R: ideal gas constant = 8.3144 Pam^3/mol K
P: pressure = 1.5*10^{-6} Pa
T: temperature = 300K
N_A: Avogadros' constant = 2.022*10^{23}molecules/mol
d: diameter of the particle = 0.25nm=0.25*10^-9m
By replacing all these values you obtain:
b) If we assume that the molecule, at the average, is at the center of the chamber, the times the molecule will collide is:
c) By using the equation of the ideal gases you obtain:
Answer:
For - 5.556 lb/s
For - 7.4047 lb/s
Solution:
As per the question:
System Load = 96000 Btuh
Temperature, T =
Temperature rise, T' =
Now,
The system load is taken to be at constant pressure, then:
Specific heat of air,
Now, for a rise of in temeprature:
Now, for :
