The components of an electronic system dissipating 180 W are located in a 1-m-long horizontal duct whose cross section is 16 cm

× 16 cm. The components in the duct are cooled by forced air, which enters at 27 oC at a rate of 0.65 m3 /min. Assuming 85 percent of the heat generated inside is transferred to air flowing through the duct and the remaining 15 percent is lost through the outer surfaces of the duct, determine (a) the exit temperature of air and (b) the highest component surface temperature in the duct. As a first approximation assume flow is fully developed in the channel. Evaluate properties of air at a bulk mean temperature of 35 oC. Is this a good assumption?

Answer:

a) The exit temperature is 39.25°C

b) The highest component surface is 132.22°C

c) The average temperature for air equal to 35°C is a good assumption because the air temperature at the inlet will increase due to the result in the heat gain produced by the duct and whose surface is exposed to a flow of hot.

Explanation:

a) The properties of the air at 35°C:

p = density = 1.145 kg/m³

v = 1.655x10⁻⁵m²/s

k = 0.02625 W/m°C

Pr = 0.7268

cp = 1007 J/kg°C

a) The mass flow rate of air is equal to:

m=\rho *V = 1.145*0.65=0.7443kg/min=0.0124kg/s

The exit temperature is:

T=T_{i} +\frac{Q}{m*c_{p} } =27+\frac{0.85*180}{0.0124*1007} =39.25°C

b) The mean fluid velocity is:

V_{m} =\frac{V}{A} =\frac{0.65}{0.16*0.16} =25.4m/min=0.4232m/s

The hydraulic diameter is:

D_{h} =\frac{4A}{p} =\frac{4*0.16*0.16}{4*0.16} =0.16m

The Reynold´s number is:

Re=\frac{VD_{h} }{v} =\frac{0.4232*0.16}{1.655x10^{-5} } =4091.36

Assuming fully developed turbulent flow, the Nusselt number is:

Nu=0.023Re^{0.8} *Pr^{0.4} =0.023*4091.36^{0.8} *0.7268^{0.4} =15.69

h=\frac{k*Nu}{D_{h} } =\frac{0.02625*15.69}{0.16} =2.57W/m^{2} C

The highest component surface temperature is:

T=T_{e} +\frac{\frac{Q}{A} }{h} =39.2+\frac{0.85*\frac{180}{4*0.16*1} }{2.57} =132.22°C

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Due to touch of teflon, its charge will reduce but will not go to zero. Some amount of its initial charge will be transferred to Aluminum rod. So, aluminum rod will have a non-zero negative charge.

A horizontal curve of a two-lane undivided highway (12-foot lanes) has a radius of 678 feet to the center line of the roadway. A
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

maximum speed for safe vehicle operation = 55mph

Explanation:

Given data :

radius ( R ) = 678 ft

old building located ( m )= 30 ft

super elevation = 0.06

<u>Determine the maximum speed for safe vehicle operation </u>

firstly calculate the stopping sight distance

m = R ( 1 - cos \frac{28.655*S}{R} )  ----  ( 1 )

R = 678  

m ( horizontal sightline ) = 30 ft

back to equation 1

30 = 678 ( 1 - cos (28.655 *s / 678 ) )

( 1 - cos (28.655 *s / 678 ) )  = 30 / 678 = 0.044

cos \frac{28.65 *s }{678}  = 1.044

hence ; 28.65 * s = 678 * 0.2956

s = 6.99 ≈ 7 ft

next we will calculate the design speed ( u ) using the formula below

S = 1.47 ut  + \frac{u^2}{30(\frac{a}{3.2} )-G1}  ----  ( 2 )

t = reaction time,  a = vehicle acceleration, G1 = grade percentage

assuming ; t = 2.5 sec , a = 11.2 ft/sec^2, G1 = 0

back to equation 2

6.99 = 1.47 * u * 2.5 + \frac{u^2}{30[(11.2/32.2)-0 ]}

3.675 u  + 0.0958 u^2 - 6.99 = 0

u ( 3.675 + 0.0958 u ) = 6.99

214Bi83 --&gt; 214Po84 + eBismuth-214 undergoes first-order radioactive decay to polonium-214 by the release of a beta particle,
Zolol [24]

Answer:

(C) ln [Bi]

Explanation:

Radioactive materials will usually decay based on their specific half lives. In radioactivity, the plot of the natural logarithm of the original radioactive material against time will give a straight-line curve. This is mostly used to estimate the decay constant that is equivalent to the negative of the slope. Thus, the answer is option C.
