A building window pane that is 1.44 m high and 0.96 m wide is separated from the ambient air by a storm window of the same heigh

t and width. The air space between the two windows is 0.06 m thick. If the building and storm windows are at 20 and −10°C, respectively, what is the rate of heat loss by free convection across the air space?

Answer:

the rate of heat loss by convection across the air space = 82.53 W

Explanation:

The film temperature

$T_f = \frac{T_1+T_2}{2} \\\\= \frac{20-10}{2}\\\\= \frac{10}{2}\\\\= 5^0\ C$

to kelvin = (5 + 273)K = 278 K

From the " thermophysical properties of gases at atmospheric pressure" table; At $T_f$ = 278 K ; by interpolation; we have the following

$\frac{278-250}{300-250}= \frac{v-11.44(10^{-6})}{15.89(10^{-6})-11.44(10^{-6})}$ → v 13.93 (10⁻⁶) m²/s

$\frac{278-250}{300-250}= \frac{k-22.3(10^{-3}}{26.3(10^{-3}-22.3(10^{-3})}$ → k = 0.0245 W/m.K

$\frac{278-250}{300-250}= \frac{\alpha - 15.9(10^{-6})}{22.5(10^{-6}-15.9(10^{-6})}$ → ∝ = 19.6(10⁻⁶)m²/s

$\frac{278-250}{300-250}= \frac{Pr-0.720}{0.707-0.720}$ → Pr = 0.713

$\beta = \frac{1}{T_f} \\=\frac{1}{278} \\ \\ = 0.00360 \ K ^{-1}$

The Rayleigh number for vertical cavity

$Ra_L = \frac{g \beta (T_1-T_2)L^3}{\alpha v}$

= $\frac{9.81*0.00360(20-(-10))*0.06^3}{19.6(10^{-6})*13.93(10^{-6})}$

= $8.38*10^5$

$\frac{H}{L}= \frac{1.44}{0.06} \\ \\= 24$

For the rectangular cavity enclosure , the Nusselt number empirical correlation:

$Nu_L = 0.42(8.38*10^5)^{\frac{1}{4}}(0.713)^{0.012}(24){-0.3}$

$NU_L= \frac{hL}{k}= 4.878$

$\frac{hL}{k}= 4.878$

$\frac{h*0.06}{0.0245}= 4.878$

$h = \frac{4.878*0.0245}{0.06}$

h = 1.99 W/m².K

Finally; the rate of heat loss by convection across the air space;

q = hA(T₁ - T₂)

q = 1.99(1.4*0.96)(20-(-10))

q = 82.53 W

Answer:

diameter of the sprue at the bottom is 1.603 cm

Explanation:

Given data;

Flow rate, Q = 400 cm³/s

cross section of sprue: Round

Diameter of sprue at the top $d_{top}$ = 3.4 cm

Height of sprue, h = 20 cm = 0.2 m

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m/s²

Calculate the velocity at the sprue base

$V_{base}$ = √2gh

we substitute

$V_{base}$ = √(2 × 9.81 m/s² × 0.2 m )

$V_{base}$ = 1.98091 m/s

$V_{base}$ = 198.091 cm/s

diameter of the sprue at the bottom will be;

Q = AV = (π $d_{bottom}^2$ /4) × $V_{base}$

$d_{bottom}$ = √(4Q/π $V_{base}$ )

we substitute our values into the equation;

$d_{bottom}$ = √(4(400 cm³/s) / (π×198.091 cm/s))

$d_{bottom}$ = 1.603 cm

Therefore, diameter of the sprue at the bottom is 1.603 cm

Answer:

$r=K A^{1/5} \rho^{-1/5} t^{2/5}$

$A= \frac{r^5 \rho}{t^2}$

$A=1.033x10^{21} ergs *\frac{Kg TNT}{4x10^{10} erg}=2.58x10^{10} Kg TNT$

Explanation:

Notation

In order to do the dimensional analysis we need to take in count that we need to conditions:

a) The energy A is released in a small place

b) The shock follows a spherical pattern

We can assume that the size of the explosion r is a function of the time t, and depends of A (energy), the time (t) and the density of the air is constant $\rho_{air}$ .

And now we can solve the dimensional problem. We assume that L is for the distance T for the time and M for the mass.

[r]=L with r representing the radius

[A]= $\frac{ML^2}{T^2}$ A represent the energy and is defined as the mass times the velocity square, and the velocity is defined as $\frac{L}{T}$

[t]=T represent the time

$[\rho]=\frac{M}{L^3}$ represent the density.

Solution to the problem

And if we analyze the function for r we got this:

$[r]=L=[A]^x [\rho]^y [t]^z$

And if we replpace the formulas for each on we got:

$[r]=L =(\frac{ML^2}{T^2})^x (\frac{M}{L^3})^y (T)^z$

And using algebra properties we can express this like that:

$[r]=L=M^{x+y} L^{2x-3y} T^{-2x+z}$

And on this case we can use the exponents to solve the values of x, y and z. We have the following system.

$x+y =0 , 2x-3y=1, -2x+z=0$

We can solve for x like this x=-y and replacing into quation 2 we got:

$2(-y)-3y = 1$

$-5y = 1$

$y= -\frac{1}{5}$

And then we can solve for x and we got:

$x = -y = -(-\frac{1}{5})=\frac{1}{5}$

And if we solve for z we got:

$z=2x =2 \frac{1}{5}=\frac{2}{5}$

And now we can express the radius in terms of the dimensional analysis like this:

$r=K A^{1/5} \rho^{-1/5} t^{2/5}$

And K represent a constant in order to make the porportional relation and equality.

The problem says that we can assume the constant K=1.

And if we solve for the energy we got:

$A^{1/5}=\frac{r}{t^{2/5} \rho^{-1/5}}$

$A= \frac{r^5 \rho}{t^2}$

And now we can replace the values given. On this case t =0.025 s, the radius r =140 m, and the density is a constant assumed $\rho =1.2 kg/m^2$ , and replacing we got:

$A=\frac{140^5 1.2 kg/m^3}{(0.025 s)^2}=1.033x10^{14} \frac{kg m^2}{s^2}$

And we can convert this into ergs we got:

$A= 1.033x10^{14} \frac{kgm^2}{s^2} * \frac{1 x10^7 egrs}{1 \frac{kgm^2}{s^2}}=1.033x10^{21} ergs$

And then we know that 1 g of TNT have $4x10^4 erg$

And we got:

$A=1.033x10^{21} ergs *\frac{Kg TNT}{4x10^{10} erg}=2.58x10^{10} Kg TNT$

(a) The reverse-saturation current of a pn junction diode is IS = 10−11 A. Determine the diode voltage to produce currents of (i

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The equation used to solve a diode is

$i_d = I_se^\frac{V_d}{V_T}-1$

$i_d$ is the current going through the diode
$I_s$ is your saturation current
$V_D$ is the voltage across your diode
$V_T$ is the voltage of the diode at a certain room temperature. by default, you always use $V_T=25.9mV$ for room temperature.

If you look at the equation, $i_d = I_se^\frac{V_d}{V_T}-1$ , you'd notice that the $e^\frac{V_d}{V_T}$ grow exponentially fast, so we can ignore the -1 in the equation because it's so small compared to the exponential.

$i_d = I_se^\frac{V_d}{V_T}-1$

$i_d\approx I_se^\frac{V_d}{V_T}$

Therefore, use $i_d= I_se^\frac{V_d}{V_T}$ to solve your equation.

Rearrange your equation to solve for $V_D$ .

$V_D=V_Tln(\frac{i_D}{I_s})$

a.)

i.)

You're given $I_s=10^{-11}A$

at $i_d=10\mu A$ , $V_D=V_Tln(\frac{i_D}{I_s})=(25.9\cdot10^{-3})ln(\frac{10\cdot10^{-6}}{10\cdot10^{-11}})=.298V$

at $i_d=100\mu A$ , $V_D=V_Tln(\frac{i_D}{I_s})=(25.9\cdot10^{-3})ln(\frac{100\cdot10^{-6}}{10\cdot10^{-11}})=.358V$

at $i_d=1mA$ , $V_D=V_Tln(\frac{i_D}{I_s})=(25.9\cdot10^{-3})ln(\frac{1\cdot10^{-3}}{10\cdot10^{-11}})=.417V$

<em>note: always use</em> $V_T=25.9mV$

ii.)

Just repeat part (i) but change to $I_s=-5\cdot10^{-12}A$

b.)

same process as part A. You do the rest of the problem by yourself.
