An overhead 25m long, uninsulated industrial steam pipe of 100mm diameter is routed through a building whose walls and air are a

t 25 *C. Pressurized steam maintains a pipe surface temperature of 150 *C, and the coefficient associated with natural convection is h = 10 W/m^2 * K. The surface emissivity is E = 0.81. What is the rate of heat loss from the steam line?
2. If the steam is gernerated in a gas-fired boiler operating at efficenty of 0.9, and natural gas is priced at C=0.02 per MJ, what is the annual cost of heat loss from line?

Answer:

a) he rate of heat loss from the steam line is 18.413588 kW

b) the annual cost of heat loss from line is $12904.25

Explanation:

a)

first we find the area

A = πdL

d is the diameter (0.1m) and L is the length (25m)

so

A = π ×  0.1 × 25

A = 7.85 m²

Now rate of heat loss through convection

qconv = hA(Ts -Ta)

h is the convective heat transfer coefficient (10 W/m²K), Ts is surface temperature (150°), Ta is temperature of air (25°)

so we substitute

qconv = 10 W/m²K × 7.85 m² × ( 150° - 25°)

qconv = 9817.477 J/s

Now heat lost through radiation

qrad = ∈Aα ( Ts⁴ - Ta⁴)

∈ is the emissivity (0.8), α is the boltzmann constant ( 5.67×10⁻⁸m⁻²K⁻⁴ ),

first we shall covert our temperatures from Celsius to kelvin scale

Ts is surface temperature (150 + 273K ), Ta is temperature of air (25 + 273K)

so we substitute

qrad = 0.8 × 7.854 × 5.67×10⁻⁸ × ( (423)⁴ - (298)⁴ )

qrad = 3.5625×10⁻⁷ × 2.413×10¹⁰

qrad = 8596.112 J/s

Now to get the total rate of heat loss through convection and radiation, we say

q = qconv + qrad

q = 9817.477 + 8596.112

q = 18413.588 J/s ≈ 18.413588 kW

Therefore the rate of heat loss from the steam line is 18.413588 kW

b)

annual cost of heat lost rate

A = C × q/n × ( 3600 × 24 × 365 )

C is the cost of heat per MJ( $0.02/10⁶) n is broiler efficiency ( 0.9)

so we substitute

A = 0.02/10⁶  × 18413.588/0.9 × ( 3600 × 24 × 365 )

A = $12904.25

Therefore the annual cost of heat loss from line is $12904.25

If an object has the same number of positive and negative charges, its electrical charge is
N76 [4]

When an object has the same number of positive and negative charges, its electrical charge will become neutral.

What is an electric charge?

When the matter is put in an electromagnetic field, it has an electric charge, which causes it to experience a force. A positive or negative electric charge can exist.

Now when the two equal magnitude charges with opposite natures come together they become neutral.

During genetic engineering, how do Restriction enzymes know what base pairs to act on?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The correct/closest option is b

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes are enzymes (endonucleases) that cut short DNA strands at specific sites. Hence, each restriction enzyme has it's own specific site (between two bases) it cuts at. There are two types of end that can be produced by this cut; the blunt end and the sticky end.

A restriction enzyme recognizes (palindromic sequence) and cut in it's own specific end.

For example, if a restriction enzyme cuts between a guanine (G) and an adenine (A), and it cuts a palindromic double stranded DNA in the manner below, it produces a sticky end.

G║AATTC

CTTAA║G

And if a restriction enzyme cuts between guanine (G) and cytosine (C) in the manner below, it produces a blunt end.

GGG║CCC

CCC║GGG

Hence, from the question, restriction enzymes (although chosen by the scientist based on desired sequence to be cut) recognize the sticky or blunt ends itself.

53. The plan of a building is in the form of a rectangle with
schepotkina [342]

Answer: 150m

Explanation:

The following can be depicted from the question:

Dimensions of outer walls = 9.7m × 14.7m.

Thickness of the wall = 0.30 m

Therefore, the plinth area of the building will be:

= (9.7 + 0.30/2 + 0.30/2) × (14.7 × 0.30/2 + 0.30/2)

= 10 × 15

= 150m

For which of 'water' flow velocities at 200C can we assume that the flow is incompressible ? a.1000 km per hour b. 500 km per ho
ad-work [718]

Answer:d

Explanation:

Given

Temperature=200^{\circ}\approc 473 K

Also \gamma for air=1.4

R=287 J/kg

Flow will be In-compressible when Mach no.<0.32

Mach no.=\frac{V}{\sqrt{\gamma RT}}

(a)1000 km/h\approx 277.78 m/s

Mach no.=\frac{277.78}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}

Mach no.=0.63

(b)500 km/h\approx 138.89 m/s

Mach no.=\frac{138.89}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}

Mach no.=0.31

(c)2000 km/h\approx 555.55 m/s

Mach no.=\frac{555.55}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}

Mach no.=1.27

(d)200 km/h\approx 55.55 m/s

Mach no.=\frac{55.55}{\sqrt{1.4\times 287\times 473}}

Mach no.=0.127

From above results it is clear that for Flow at velocity 200 km/h ,it will be incompressible.
