Answer:

Basically there are two principal differences between the convection and conduction heat transfer

Explanation:

The conduction heat transfer is referred to the transfer between two solids due a temperature difference, while for, the convective heat transfer is referred to the transfer between a fluid (liquid or gas) and a solid. Also, they used different coefficients for its calculation.

We can include on the explanation that conduction thermal transfer is due to temperature difference, while convection thermal transfer is due to density difference.

What is engine knock? What cause the engine knock problem?

Answer:

When the uneven burning of the fuel takes place due to the incorrect air/fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder, a knocking sound is observed. This is called as the engine knocking.

Explanation:

When the uneven burning of the fuel takes place due to the incorrect air/fuel mixture inside the engine cylinder, a knocking sound is observed. This is called as the engine knocking.

The engine knock problem can be caused due to the following reason

a) When the octane rating of the fuel used is low.

b) The deposition of the carbon around the cylinder walls takes place.

c) The spark plug used in the vehicle is not correct.

Seperate real and imaginary parts tan(2x+i3y)

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

First you have to separate real and imaginary parts of Tan(x+iy)=Tan(z)=sin(z)/cos(z)

sinz=sin(x+iy)=sinxcos(iy)+cosxsin(iy)=sinxcoshy-icosx sinhy

cosz=cos(x+iy)=cosxcos(iy)-sinxsin(iy)=cosxcoshy−isinxsinhy

Now if you plug in Tan(z) and simplify (it is easy!) you get

Tan(z)=(sin(2x)+isinh(2y))/(cos(2x)+cosh(2y))= A+iB.

This means that

A=sin(2x)/(cos(2x)+cosh(2y)) and B= sinh(2y)/(cos(2x)+cosh(2y))

Now,

A/B=sin(2x)/sinh(2y)

If any questions, let me know.

An Ideal gas is being heated in a circular duct as while flowing over an electric heater of 130 kW. The diameter of duct is 500

max2010maxim [7]

Answer: The exit temperature of the gas in deg C is $32^{o}C$ .

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

$C_{p}$ = 1000 J/kg K, R = 500 J/kg K = 0.5 kJ/kg K (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

$P_{1}$ = 100 kPa, $V_{1} = 15 m^{3}/s$

$T_{1} = 27^{o}C = (27 + 273) K = 300 K$

We know that for an ideal gas the mass flow rate will be calculated as follows.

$P_{1}V_{1} = mRT_{1}$

or, m = $\frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{RT_{1}}$

= $\frac{100 \times 15}{0.5 \times 300}$

= 10 kg/s

Now, according to the steady flow energy equation:

$mh_{1} + Q = mh_{2} + W$

$h_{1} + \frac{Q}{m} = h_{2} + \frac{W}{m}$

$C_{p}T_{1} - \frac{80}{10} = C_{p}T_{2} - \frac{130}{10}$

$(T_{2} - T_{1})C_{p} = \frac{130 - 80}{10}$

$(T_{2} - T_{1})$ = 5 K

$T_{2}$ = 5 K + 300 K

$T_{2}$ = 305 K

= (305 K - 273 K)

= $32^{o}C$

Therefore, we can conclude that the exit temperature of the gas in deg C is $32^{o}C$ .

A gas stream flowing at 1000 cfm with a particulate loading of 400 gr/ft3 discharges from a certain industrial plant through an

Makovka662 [10]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

Volume of gas stream = 1000 cfm (Cubic Feet per Minute)

Particulate loading = 400 gr/ft3 (Grain/cubic feet)

1 gr/ft3 = 0.00220462 lb/ft3

Total weight of particulate matter = $1000 \mathrm{cfm} \times 400 \mathrm{gr} / \mathrm{tt} 3 \times .000142857 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{ft} 3 \times 60=3428.568 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{hr}$

Cyclone is to 80 % efficient

So particulate remaining = $0.20 \times 3428.568 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{hr}=685.7136$

emissions from this stack be limited to = 10.0 lb/hr

Particles to be remaining after wet scrubber = 10.0 lb/hr

So particles to be removed = 685.7136- 10 = 675.7136

Efficiency = output multiply with 100/input = 98.542 %
