A thermocouple junction, which may be approximated as a sphere, is to be used for temperature measurement in a gas stream. The c

onvection coefficient between the junction surface and the gas is known to be h = 400 W/m2 ?K, and the junction thermophysical properties are k = 20 W/m?K, Cp = 400 J/kg?K, and ? = 8500 kg/m3 . Determine the junction diameter needed for the thermocouple to have a time constant of 1 s. If the junction is at 25 oC and is placed in a gas stream that is at 200 oC, how long will it take for the junction to reach 199 oC?

Answer:

t=5.2seconds

Explanation:

First, we state our assumptions:1. Temperature \ of \ the \ junction \ is \ uniform \ at \ any \ instant\\2. Radiation \ is \ negligible\\3. Constant \ properties

Given T_i=25\textdegree C, k=20W/m.K\ , C_p=400J/kg.K \ \rho=8500kg/m^3

and gas streamT_-=25\textdegree C , h=400W/m.K

We use the time constant to find the diameter of the junction:

\tau _t=\frac{1}{hA}\rhoVC_p=\frac{1}{h\pi D^2}\times \frac{\rho \pi \D^3}{6}C_p=>D=0.706mm

Now, check the validity of the lumped system analysis. With L_c=r_o/3

Bi=\frac{hL_c}{k}=2.35\times 10^-^4\leq 0.1    #Lumped Analysis is OK

Bi<<0.1, therefore the lumped approximation is excellent. The time required for the junction to reach T=199\textdegree C:

\frac{T(t)-T_\infty}{T_i-T_\infty}=e^-^b^t\\b=\frac{hA}{\rho VC}\\\\t=\frac{1}{b}In \frac{T_i-T_\infty}{T(t)-T_\infty}\\t=5.2s

It takes 5.2seconds for the junction to reach 199 oC

Select the correct answer. An airplane is flying at a constant speed in a positive direction. It slows down when it approaches t
Triss [41]

An airplane is flying at a constant speed in a positive direction. It slows down when it approaches the airport where it's going to land. this is an example of negative acceleration (D).

Which type of energy is stored in a capacitor? electric potential energy chemical energy gravitational energy heat energy
Tom [10]

Energy stored in a capacitor is Electric Potential Energy. Capacitor is device used for storing energy. The work done to charge is a capacitor is stored in it in the form of Electrical potential energy. Electrical potential energy is defined as capacity to do work due to the position change. For example, we know fans have capacitor installed in it. When we turn off the fan, it continue moving using the electrical energy stored in the capacitor.

You push on a box with 100 N of force, causing it to accelerate at 5 m/s?.
Xelga [282]
<h3><u>Given</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

Force,F = 100 N

Acceleration,a = 5 m/s²

<h3><u>To</u><u> </u><u>be</u><u> </u><u>calculated:-</u><u> </u></h3>

Calculate the mass of the box .

<h3><u>Formula</u><u> </u><u>used:-</u><u> </u></h3>

\bf \: Force = Mass  \times  Acceleration

<h3><u>Solution:-</u><u> </u></h3>

\sf \: Force = Mass × Acceleration

★ Substituting the values in the above formula,we get:

\sf \implies \: 100 = Mass \times 5

\sf \implies \: Mass =   \cancel\dfrac{100}{5}

\sf \implies \: Mass = 20 \: kg
