What is the definition of a duty cycle?

Engineering
1 answer:
ira [324]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D=\frac{PW}{T}*100

Explanation:

In electrical terms, is the ratio of time in which a load or circuit is ON compared to the time in which the load or circuit is OFF.

The duty cycle or power cycle, is expressed as a percentage of the activation time. For example, a 70% duty cycle is a signal that 70% of the time is activated and the other 30% disabled. Its equation can be expressed as:

D=\frac{PW}{T}*100

Where:

D=Duty\hspace{3}Cycle

PW=Pulse\hspace{3}Active\hspace{3}Time

T=Period\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}Signal

Here is a picture that will help you understand these concepts.

Why does an object under forced convection reach a steady-state faster than an object subjected to free-convection?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Free convection:

   When heat transfer occurs due to density difference between fluid then this type of heat transfer is know as free convection.The velocity of fluid is zero or we can say that fluid is not moving.

Force convection:

   When heat transfer occurs due to some external force then this type of heat transfer is know as force convection.The velocity of fluid is not zero or we can say that fluid is moving in force convection.

Heat transfer coefficient of force convection is high as compare to the natural convection.That is why heat force convection reach a steady-state faster than an object subjected to free-convection.

We know that convective heat transfer given as

 q = h  A ΔT

h=Heat transfer coefficient

A= Surface area

ΔT = Temperature difference

Calculate the modulus of elasticity of carbon-epoxy composite under isostraincondition if thecomposite consists of 40% carbon fi
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

1. 142.1 GPa

2. 98.52%

Explanation:

1. The modulus of elasticity of carbon-epoxy composite is calculated using the following formula:

Ec = VmEm + VfEf

where Vm: volume of Epoxy

            Em: modulus of the elasticity of the epoxy

            Vf: volume of carbon fiber

             Ef: modulus of the elasticity of the carbon fiber

Given that :

          Vm = 0.6

            Em = 3.5 GPa

            Vf = 0.4

             Ef: 350 Gpa

Therefore Ec = (0.6 × 3.5 GPa + (0.4 × 350 GPa)

Ec = 142.1 GPa

The modulus of elasticity of carbon-epoxy composite is 142.1 GPa

2. Percentage of load carried by the carbon fibers is given by the following equation: Ff/Fc = (Ef/Ec)×Vf

where Ff is the force carried by carbon fibers, Fc is the force applied to the composite, Ec is the modulus of elasticity of the composite,  Ef is the  modulus of the elasticity of the carbon fiber and Vf  the volume of carbon fiber.

Given that:

       EF = 350 Gpa

        Ec = 142.1 GPa

         Vf = 0.4

Substituting the above values into the equation:

Ff/Fc = (350 GPa/142.1 GPa)×0.4 = 0.9852 = 98.52%

The percentage of load carried by the carbon fibers is there 98.52%

The rolling process is governed by the frictional force between the rollers and the workpiece. The frictional force at the entra
adell [148]

Answer:

b)false

Explanation:

Rolling is a process in which work piece passes through rolls to produce desired out put of the work piece.Rolling  is a metal forming process.

We know that friction force is responsible for motion of work piece between rolls.If friction force is so small at the entrance side then work piece will not enter in the forming zone and forming process will not occurs.So the friction force should be high at the entrance side and low at the exit side.

So given statement is wrong.

A 2.5 m-high, 4-m-wide, and 80-cm-thick wall of a house has a thermal resistance of 0.0125°c/W. The thermal conductivity of the
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is part 'c': 6.4 W/m-K

Explanation:

We know that the thermal resistance of a wall is given by

R_{wall}=\frac{L}{kA}

where,

L = thickness of wall

k = thermal conductivity of wall

A = Surface area of wall

Applying values we get

k=\frac{L}{R_{wall}A}

k=\frac{80\times 10^{-2}}{0.0125\times 2.5\times 4}\\\\\therefore k=6.4W/mK
