Answer: No, the air conditioner is not a refrigerator

Explanation:

First, We need to make a difference between refrigerant and refrigerator

Refrigerator is a compartment used to kept cool and store the food and drink.

Refrigerant: A substance used for the refrigeration

Refrigeration: It is the process to keep a material cold, generally food and drink

Then: The air conditioner is a refrigerant and the air conditioner unit is a refrigerator

A horizontal pipe has an abrupt expansion from D1 5 8 cm to D2 5 16 cm. The water velocity in the smaller section is 10 m/s and

anyanavicka [17]

Answer: Explanation: Application of the bernoulli's equation comes in from conservation of mass flow. The cross sectional area of the two pipes are calculated. from A = πD²/4 The velocity of water from conservation of mass flow is also calculated ; V2 = Ac1V1/Ac2 The Loss coefficient is then calculated from KL = (1 - Ac1²/Ac2²)² Then the head Loss (hL) is calculated The detailed calculated and appropriate steps is as shown in the attached files.

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
