) A brick of clay is being dried in a batch dryer using constant drying conditions. You have been asked to determine the amount

of time it will take to dry the clay from a total moisture content of 0.6 to a free moisture content of 0.08. You are given the following information: 1. Previously, the drier was able to dry a piece of clay with a total moisture content of 0.64 in 8 hours and 80% of the drying occurred with a constant rate. 2. The equilibrium moisture content is 0.1. 3. The critical free moisture content is 0.15.

Answer:

The drying time is calculated as shown

Explanation:

Data:

Let the moisture content be = 0.6

the free moisture content be = 0.08

total moisture of the clay  = 0.64

total drying time for the period = 8 hrs

then if the final dry and wet masses are calculated, it follows that

t = (X0+ Xc)/Rc) + (Xc/Rc)* ln (Xc/X)

 = 31.3 min.

Paint can shaker mechanisms are common in paint and hardware stores. While they do a good job of mixing the paint, they are also
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

A good design for a portable device to mix paint minimizing the shaking forces and vibrations while still effectively mixing the paint. Is:

The best design is one with centripetal movement. Instead of vertical or horizontal movement. With a container and system of holding structures made of materials that could absorb the vibration effectively.

Explanation:

First of all centripetal movement would be friendlier to our objective as it would not shake the can or the machine itself with disruptive vibrations. Also, we would have to use materials with a good grade of force absorption to eradicate the transmission of the movement to the rest of the structure. Allowing the reduction of the shaking forces while maintaining it effective in the process of mixing.
