Answer:
C. underground road
Explanation:
Generally compound curves are not filtered and recommended for use in an underground road. However, they are best used in the road, water way, and rail way.
Answer:
ΔQ = 4930.37 BTu
Explanation:
given data
height h = 8ft
Δt = 8 hours
length L = 24 feet
R value = 16.2 hr⋅°F⋅ft² /Btu
inside temperature t1 = 68°F
outside temperature t2 = 16°F
to find out
number of Btu conducted
solution
we get here number of Btu conducted by this expression that s
......................1
here A is area that is = h × L = 8 × 24 = 1492 ft²
put here value we get
solve it we get
ΔQ = 4930.37 BTu
Answer:
Thermal resistance for a wall depends on the material, the thickness of the wall and the cross-section area.
Explanation:
Current flow and heat flow are very similar when we are talking about 1-dimensional energy transfer. Attached you can see a picture we can use to describe the heat flow between the ends of the wall. First of all, a temperature difference is required to flow heat from one side to the other, just like voltage is required for current flow. You can also see that
represents the thermal resistance. The next image explains more about the parameters which define the value of the thermal resistances which are the following:
- Wall Thickness. More thickness, more thermal resistance.
- Material thermal conductivity (unique value for each material). More conductivity, less thermal resistance.
- Cross-section Area. More cross-section area, less thermal resistance.
A expression to define the thermal resistance for the wall is as follows:
, where l is the distance between the tow sides of the wall, that is to say the wall thickness; A is the cross-section area and k is the material conducitivity.
