Why do the pipes in a steam-heating system need to be insulated?

Physics
1 answer:
qaws [65]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

1. Increase Efficiency: Insulating the condensate or hot water return lines reduces heat loss from the water returning to the boiler. The hotter the water returning to the boiler is, the quicker it is to convert back to steam, which takes less energy to accomplish.

What is the maximum magnitude of charge that can be placed on each plate if the electric field in the region between the plates
34kurt

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A parallel-plate capacitor has capacitance C_{0} = 8.50 pF when there is air between the plates. The separation between the plates is 1.00 mm.

What is the maximum magnitude of charge that can be placed on each plate if the electric field in the region between the plates is not to exceed 3.00 \times 10^{4} V/m?

Explanation:

It is known that relation between electric field and the voltage is as follows.

             V = Ed

Now,  

              Q = CV

or,           Q = C \times Ed

Therefore, substitute the values into the above formula as follows.

              Q = C \times Ed

                  = 8.50 pF \times (\frac{10^{-12} F}{1 pF})(3 \times 10^{4} m/s)(1 mm)(\frac{10^{-3} m}{1 mm})

                  = 2.55 \times 10^{-10} C

Hence, we can conclude that the maximum magnitude of charge that can be placed on each given plate is 2.55 \times 10^{-10} C.

An air compressor compresses 6 L of air at 120 kPa and 22°C to 1000 kPa and 400°C. Determine the flow work, in kJ/kg, required b
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The work flow required by the compressor = 100.67Kj/kg

Explanation:

The solution to this question is obtained from the energy balance where the initial and final specific internal energies and enthalpies are taken from A-17 table from the given temperatures using interpolation .

The work flow can be determined using the equation:

M1h1 + W = Mh2

U1 + P1alph1 + ◇U + Workflow = U2 + P2alpha2

Workflow = P2alpha2 - P1alpha1

Workflow = (h2 -U2) - (h1 - U1)

Workflow = ( 684.344 - 491.153) - ( 322.483 - 229.964)

Workflow = ( 193.191 - 92.519)Kj/kg

Workflow = 100.672Kj/kg
