What are the optical properties of steel

Engineering
1 answer:
dezoksy [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A selective surface with large absorption for solar radiation and high reflectance for thermal infrared radiation was produced by use of surface oxidation of stainless steel. The surfaces were studied for use with concentrated light in a solar power plant at temperatures of 400°C and higher.

In order to investigate the relation between surface treatment and optical properties, stainless steels (AISI 304 and 430) which were submitted to different chemical and mechanical surface treatments, were used. To increase the spectral selectivity, these surfaces were treated in air and in vacuum at different temperatures and times. The optical properties of these films were investigated. Visual and infrared spectral absorptances were measured at room temperature. The thermal hemispherical emittance and absorptance were obtained by a calorimetric method at 200°C. It was noticed that these chemically and mechanically treated stainless steel surfaces have good spectral properties without further oxidations. This is very important for high temperature uses. The best values are found for samples 7 and 8 under vacuum and air. These two samples with mechanically ground surfaces retained their selectivity and specularity after several hours oxidation. One can conclude that the surface ground treatment confers good selectivity on the steel surfaces for use in concentrating solar collectors with a working temperature of 500°C.

Sample surfaces were subjected to long temperature ageing tests in order to gain some idea of the thermal stability of the surfaces. The results promise better-performing surface and the production of durable selective finishes at, possibly, lower cost than competing processes.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Both Technician A and B are correct.

Explanation: A brake lathe is a special tool used to improve or work on the surface of brake pads it helps to smoothen the surface.

Brake lathe has been found to be very effective in removing rusts in rotors and unevenness in the brake pad surfaces in order to ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of the brake system of a vehicle. Hence, a brake lathe helps to make brake rotor surface as smooth as possible.

Write a program that removes all spaces from the given input. You may assume that the input string will not exceed 50 characters
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Program that removes all spaces from the given input

Explanation:

// An efficient Java program to remove all spaces  

// from a string  

class GFG  

{  

 

// Function to remove all spaces  

// from a given string  

static int removeSpaces(char []str)  

{  

   // To keep track of non-space character count  

   int count = 0;  

 

   // Traverse the given string.  

   // If current character  

   // is not space, then place  

   // it at index 'count++'  

   for (int i = 0; i<str.length; i++)  

       if (str[i] != ' ')  

           str[count++] = str[i]; // here count is  

                                   // incremented  

         

   return count;  

}  

 

// Driver code  

public static void main(String[] args)  

{  

   char str[] = "g eeks for ge eeks ".toCharArray();  

   int i = removeSpaces(str);  

   System.out.println(String.valueOf(str).subSequence(0, i));  

}  

}

A group of n Ghostbusters is battling n ghosts. Each Ghostbuster carries a proton pack, which shoots a stream at a ghost, eradic
babunello [35]

Answer:

Using the above algorithm matches one pair of Ghostbuster and Ghost. On  each side of the line formed by the pairing, the number of Ghostbusters and Ghosts are  the same, so use the algorithm recursively on each side of the line to find pairings. The  worst case is when, after each iteration, one side of the line contains no Ghostbusters  or Ghosts. Then, we need n/2 total iterations to find pairings, giving us an P(n^{2} lg n)-  time algorithm.
