A composite wall is composed of 20 cm of concrete block with k = 0.5 W/m-K and 5 cm of foam insulation with k = 0.03 W/m-K. The

temperature of on the foam side is 25oC while the temperature on the block side is 0oC. What is the temperature at the interface between the block and the foam?

Answer:

4.8°C

Explanation:

The rate of heat transfer through the wall is given by:

q=\frac{Ak}{L}dT

\frac{q}{A}=\frac{k}{L}dT

Assumptions:

1) the system is at equilibrium

2) the heat transfer from foam side to interface and interface to block side is equal. There is no heat retention at any point

3) the external surface of the wall (concrete block side) is large enough that all heat is dissipated and there is no increase in temperature of the air on that side

{k_{fi}= 0.03 W/m.K

{L_{fi}= 5 cm = 0.05 m

{T_{fi}= 25 \°C

{k_{cb} = 0.5 W/m.K

{L_{cb}= 20 cm = 0.20 m

{T_{cb}= 0 \°C

{T_{m}= ? \°C = temperature at the interface

Solving for {T_{m} will give the temperature at the interface:

\frac{q}{A}=\frac{k_{fi} }{L_{fi} }(T_{fi} -T_{m})=\frac{k_{cb} }{L_{cb} }(T_{m} -T_{cb})

\frac{0.03}{0.05 }(25 -T_{m})=\frac{0.5}{0.2}(T_{m} -0})

15 -0.6T_{m}=2.5T_{m}

3.1T_{m}=15

T_{m}=4.8

Technician A says that a way to prevent galvanic corrosion is to duplicate the original installation method. Technician B says t
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Technician A

Explanation:

Galvanic corrosion is not on only one metal alone but caused when two metals are interacting. Thus, Duplicating the original installation method is a better option because re-using a coated bolt doesn't prevent galvanic corrosion because both materials must be coated and not just the bolt and in technician B's case he is coating just the bolt. Thus, technician B's method will not achieve prevention of galvanic corrosion but technician A's method will achieve it.

Complete Question

Complete Question is attached below.

Answer:

V'=5m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Diameter d=0.10m

Power P=4.0kW

Head loss \mu=10m

 \frac{P_1}{\rho g}+\frac{V_1^2}{2g}+Z_1+H_m=\frac{P_2}{\rho g}+\frac{V_2^2}{2g}+Z_2+\mu

 \frac{300*10^3}{\rho g}+35+Hm=\frac{500*10^3}{\rho g}+15+10

 H_m=(\frac{200*10^3}{1000*9.8}-10)

 H_m=10.39m

Generally the equation for Power is mathematically given by

 P=\rho gQH_m

Therefore

 Q=\frac{P}{\rho g H_m}

 Q=\frac{4*10^4}{1000*9.81*10.9}

 Q=0.03935m^3/sec

Since

 Q=AV'

Where

 A=\pi r^2\\A=3.142 (0.05)^2

 A=7.85*10^{-3}

Therefore

 V'=\frac{0.03935m^3/sec}{7.85*10^{-3}}

 V'=5m/s
