A furnace wall is to be built of 20-cm firebrick and building (structural) brick of same thickness. The thermal conductivities o

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

q=2313.04 $W/m^2$

T=690.86°C

Explanation:

Given that

Thickness t= 20 cm

Thermal conductivity of firebrick= 1.6 W/m.K

Thermal conductivity of structural brick= 0.7 W/m.K

Inner temperature of firebrick=980°C

Outer temperature of structural brick =30°C

We know that thermal resistance

$R=\dfrac{t}{KA}$

These are connect in series

$R=\left(\dfrac{t}{KA}\right)_{fire}+\left(\dfrac{t}{KA}\right)_{struc}$

$R=\dfrac{0.2}{1.6A}+\dfrac{0.2}{0.7A}\ K/W$

$R=\dfrac{23}{56A}\ K/W$

Heat transfer

$Q=\dfrac{\Delta T}{R}$

$Q=56A\times \dfrac{980-30}{23}\ W$

So heat flux

q=2313.04 $W/m^2$

Lets temperature between interface is T

Now by equating heat in both bricks

$\dfrac{980-T}{\dfrac{0.2}{1.6A}}=\dfrac{T-30}{\dfrac{0.2}{0.7A}}$

So T=690.86°C

A standard penetration test has been conducted on a coarse sand at a depth of 16 ft below the ground surface. The blow counts ob

scoray [572]

Solution :

Given :

The number of blows is given as :

0 - 6 inch = 4 blows

6 - 12 inch = 6 blows

12 - 18 inch = 6 blows

The vertical effective stress $=1500 \ lb/ft^2$

$= 71.82 \ kN/m^2$

$\sim 72 \ kN/m^2$

Now,

$N_1=N_0 \left(\frac{350}{\bar{\sigma}+70} \right)$

$N_1 =$ corrected N - value of overburden

$\bar{\sigma}=$ effective stress at level of test

0 - 6 inch, $N_1=4 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right)$

= 9.86

6 - 12 inch, $N_1=6 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right)$

= 14.8

12 - 18 inch, $N_1=6 \left(\frac{350}{72+70} \right)$

= 14.8

$N_{avg}=\frac{9.86+14.8+14.8}{3}$

= 13.14

= 13

Complete Question

Complete Question is attached below.

Answer:

$V'=5m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Diameter $d=0.10m$

Power $P=4.0kW$

Head loss $\mu=10m$

$\frac{P_1}{\rho g}+\frac{V_1^2}{2g}+Z_1+H_m=\frac{P_2}{\rho g}+\frac{V_2^2}{2g}+Z_2+\mu$

$\frac{300*10^3}{\rho g}+35+Hm=\frac{500*10^3}{\rho g}+15+10$

$H_m=(\frac{200*10^3}{1000*9.8}-10)$

$H_m=10.39m$

Generally the equation for Power is mathematically given by

$P=\rho gQH_m$

Therefore

$Q=\frac{P}{\rho g H_m}$

$Q=\frac{4*10^4}{1000*9.81*10.9}$

$Q=0.03935m^3/sec$

Since

$Q=AV'$

Where

$A=\pi r^2\\A=3.142 (0.05)^2$

$A=7.85*10^{-3}$

Therefore

$V'=\frac{0.03935m^3/sec}{7.85*10^{-3}}$

$V'=5m/s$
