A pipe is insulated such that the outer radius of the insulation is less than the critical radius. Now the insulation is taken o
irina [24]

Answer:

the heat transfer from the pipe will decrease when the insulation is taken off for r₂< r_{cr}

where;

r₂ = outer radius

r_{cr} = critical radius

Explanation:

Note that the critical radius of insulation depends on the thermal conductivity of the insulation k and the external convection heat transfer coefficient h .

r_{cr} =\frac{k}{h}

The rate of heat transfer from the cylinder increases with the addition of insulation for outer radius less than  critical radius (r₂< r_{cr}) 0,  and reaches a maximum when r₂ = r_{cr}, and starts to decrease for r₂< r_{cr}. Thus, insulating the pipe may actually increase the rate of heat transfer from the pipe instead of decreasing it when r₂< r_{cr} .

An industrial load with an operating voltage of 480/0° V is connected to the power system. The load absorbs 120 kW with a laggin
Leni [432]

Answer:

Q=41.33 KVAR\ \\at\\\ 480 Vrms

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Voltage V=480/0 \textdegree V

Power P=120kW

Initial Power factor p.f_1=0.77 lagging

Final Power factor p.f_2=0.9 lagging

Generally the equation for Reactive Power is mathematically given by

Q=P(tan \theta_2-tan \theta_1)

Since

p.f_1=0.77

cos \theta_1 =0.77

\theta_1=cos^{-1}0.77

\theta_1=39.65 \textdegree

And

p.f_2=0.9

cos \theta_2 =0.9

\theta_2=cos^{-1}0.9

\theta_2=25.84 \textdegree

Therefore

Q=P(tan 25.84 \textdegree-tan 39.65 \textdegree)

Q=120*10^3(tan 25.84 \textdegree-tan 39.65 \textdegree)

Q=-41.33VAR

Therefore

The size of the capacitor in vars that is necessary to raise the power factor to 0.9 lagging is

Q=41.33 KVAR\ \\at\\\ 480 Vrms
