A furnace wall composed of 200 mm, of fire brick. 120 mm common brick 50mm 80% magnesia and 3mm of steel plate on the outside. I

f the inside surface temperature is 1450 °C and outer surface temperature is 90°C, estimate the temperature between layers and calculate the heat loss in KJ/h-m2. Assume k for fire brick 4 KJ/m-h°C, k for common brick= 2.8 KJ/m-h°C, k for 85% magnesia = 0.25 KJ/m-h°C and k for steel 240 KJ/m-h°C, k

Answer:

  • fire brick / common brick : 1218 °C
  • common brick / magnesia : 1019 °C
  • magnesia / steel : 90.06 °C
  • heat loss: 4644 kJ/m^2/h

Explanation:

The thermal resistance (R) of a layer of thickness d given in °C·m²·h/kJ is ...

  R = d/k

so the thermal resistances of the layers of furnace wall are ...

  R₁ = 0.200/4 = 0.05 °C·m²·h/kJ

  R₂ = 0.120 2.8 = 3/70 °C·m²·h/kJ

  R₃ = 0.05/0.25 = 0.2 °C·m²·h/kJ

  R₄ = 0.003/240 = 1.25×10⁻⁵ °C·m²·h/kJ

So, the total thermal resistance is ...

  R₁ +R₂ +R₃ +R₄ = R ≈ 0.29286 °C·m²·h/kJ

__

The rate of heat loss is ΔT/R = (1450 -90)/0.29286 = 4643.70 kJ/(m²·h)

__

The temperature drops across the various layers will be found by multiplying this heat rate by the thermal resistance for the layer:

  fire brick: (4543.79 kJ/(m²·h))(0.05 °C·m²·h/kJ) = 232 °C

so, the fire brick interface temperature at the common brick is ...

  1450 -232 = 1218 °C

For the next layers, the interface temperatures are ...

  common brick to magnesia = 1218 °C - (3/70)(4643.7) = 1019 °C

  magnesia to steel = 1019 °C -0.2(4643.7) = 90.06 °C

_____

<em>Comment on temperatures</em>

Most temperatures are rounded to the nearest degree. We wanted to show the small temperature drop across the steel plate, so we showed the inside boundary temperature to enough digits to give the idea of the magnitude of that.

A satellite is launched 600 km from the surface of the earth, with an initial velocity of 8333.3 m./s, acting parallel to the ta
Vikki [24]

Answer:

eccentrcity of orbit is 0.22

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

Initial velocity of satellite = 8333.3 m/s

distance from the sun is 600 km

radius of earth is 6378 km

as satellite is acting parallel to the earth therefore\theta angle = 0

and radial component of given velocity is zero

we haveh = r_o v_r_o = 6378+600 =6.97*10^6 m

h = 6.97*10^6 *8333.3 = 58.08*10^9 m^2/s

we know that

\frac{1}{r} =\frac{GM}{h^2} \times ( i + \epsilon cos\theta)

GM = gr^2 = 9.81*(6.37*10^6)^2 = 398*10^{12} m^3/s

so

\frac{1}{6.97*10^6} =\frac{398*10^{12}}{(58.08*10^9)^2} \times ( i + \epsilon cos0)

solvingt for \epsilon)

\epsilon = 0.22)

therefore eccentrcity of orbit is 0.22

technician A says that in any circuit, electrical current takes the path of least resistance. technician B says that while this
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

  technician A is correct

Explanation:

Technician B has circuit topologies confused. In a series circuit, there is only one path for electrical current to take. In a parallel circuit, the current will divide between paths in proportion to the inverse of their resistance. The least resistance path will have the most current.

Technician A is mostly correct.

what is an example of an innovative solution to an engineering problem? Explain briefly why you chose this answer.
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

robotic technology    

Explanation:

Innovation is nothing but the use of various things such as ideas, products, people to build up a solution for the benefit of the human. It can be any product or any solution which is new and can solve people's problems.

Innovation solution makes use of technology to provide and dispatch new solutions or services which is a combination of both technology and ideas.

One such example of an innovative solution we can see is the use of "Robots" in medical science or in any military operations or rescue operation.

Sometimes it is difficult for humans to do everything or go to everywhere. Thus scientist and engineers have developed many advance robots or machines using new ideas and technology to find solutions to these problems.

Using innovations and technologies, one can find solutions to many problems which is difficult for the peoples. Robots can be used in any surveillance operation or in places of radioactive surrounding where there is a danger of humans to get exposed to such threats. They are also used in medical sciences to operate and support the patient.

What might cause a shotgun to explode?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

When you pull the trigger to shoot a shotshell from a shotgun or a cartridge from a rifle or handgun, the firing pin strikes the primer in the base of the cartridge or shotshell. This causes the primer to explode. The spark from the primer ignites the gunpowder, which burns rapidly and converts to a gas.
