B) Oxygen combines with nitrogen in the air to form NOx at about 2500 degrees Fahrenheit.
Answer:
Tmax= 46.0 lb-in
Explanation:
Given:
- The diameter of the steel rod BC d1 = 0.25 in
- The diameter of the copper rod AB and CD d2 = 1 in
- Allowable shear stress of steel τ_s = 15ksi
- Allowable shear stress of copper τ_c = 12ksi
Find:
Find the torque T_max
Solution:
- The relation of allowable shear stress is given by:
τ = 16*T / pi*d^3
T = τ*pi*d^3 / 16
- Design Torque T for Copper rod:
T_c = τ_c*pi*d_c^3 / 16
T_c = 12*1000*pi*1^3 / 16
T_c = 2356.2 lb.in
- Design Torque T for Steel rod:
T_s = τ_s*pi*d_s^3 / 16
T_s = 15*1000*pi*0.25^3 / 16
T_s = 46.02 lb.in
- The design torque must conform to the allowable shear stress for both copper and steel. The maximum allowable would be:
T = min ( 2356.2 , 46.02 )
T = 46.02 lb-in
Answer:
15.24°C
Explanation:
The quality of any heat pump pumping heat from cold to hot place is determined by its coefficient of performance (COP) defined as

Where Q_{in} is heat delivered into the hot place, in this case, the house, and W is the work used to pump heat
You can think of this quantity as similar to heat engine's efficiency
In our case, the COP of our heater is

Where T_{house} = 24°C and T_{out} is temperature outside
To achieve maximum heating, we will have to use the most efficient heat pump, and, according to the second law of thermodynamics, nothing is more efficient that Carnot Heat Pump
Which has COP of:

So we equate the COP of our heater with COP of Carnot heater

Rearrange the equation

Solve this simple quadratic equation, and you should get that the lowest outdoor temperature that could still allow heat to be pumped into your house would be
15.24°C
Answer:
<em> - 14.943 W/m^2K ( negative sign indicates cooling ) </em>
Explanation:
Given data:
Area of FPC = 4 m^2
temp of water = 60°C
flow rate = 0.06 l/s
ambient temperature = 8°C
exit temperature = 49°C
<u>Calculate the overall heat loss coefficient </u>
Note : heat lost by water = heat loss through convection
m*Cp*dT = h*A * ( T - To )
∴ dT / T - To = h*A / m*Cp ( integrate the relation )
In (
) = h* 4 / ( 0.06 * 10^-3 * 1000 * 4180 )
In ( 41 / 52 ) = 0.0159*h
hence h = - 0.2376 / 0.0159
= - 14.943 W/m^2K ( heat loss coefficient )
