cent confidence, what must the service level be for each of the five components? (Assume the same service level for each component).

Answer:

The service level for each component must be 97.91%

Explanation:

If we want a 90% confidence of starting on time, that means we need

P_{\mbox{starting on time}}=P_{\mbox{every component being ready on time}}=0.9\\

As the probability of each component being ready is independent from the others, that means that the probability of the 5 components being ready is equal to multiply each probability:

0.9=P_{\mbox{component 1 ready on time} } * P_{\mbox{component 2 ready on time} } *\\ P_{\mbox{component 3 ready on time} } * P_{\mbox{component 4 ready on time} } *\\P_{\mbox{component 5 ready on time} }

The probability of being ready on time is equal to the service level (in fraction), and all 5 are equal so we can say:

0.9=(\mbox{service level(in fraction)})^5\\\\\sqrt[5]{0.9} =\mbox{service level(in fraction)}=0.9791\\\mbox{In percentage}: \mbox{service level (in fraction)}*100 = 97.91\%

zimovet [89]

Answer:

F = 0.0022N

Explanation:

Given:

Surface area (A) = 4,000mm² = 0.004m²

Viscosity = µ = 0.55 N.s/m²

u = (5y-0.5y²) mm/s

Assume y = 4

Computation:

F/A = µ(du/dy)

F = µA(du/dy)

F = µA[(d/dy)(5y-0.5y²)]

F = (0.55)(0.004)[(5-1(4))]

F = 0.0022N

For a cylindrical annulus whose inner and outer surfaces are maintained at 30 ºC and 40 ºC, respectively, a heat flux sensor mea
miskamm [114]

Answer:

k=0.12\ln(r_2/r_1)\frac {W}{ m^{\circ} C}

where r_1 and r_2 be the inner radius, outer radius of the annalus.

Explanation:

Let r_1, r_2 and L be the inner radius, outer radius and length of the given annulus.

Temperatures at the inner surface, T_1=30^{\circ}C\\ and at the outer surface, T_2=40^{\circ}C.

Let q be the rate of heat transfer at the steady-state.

Given that, the heat flux at r=3cm=0.03m is

40 W/m^2.

\Rightarrow \frac{q}{(2\pi\times0.03\times L)}=40

\Rightarrow q=2.4\pi L \;W

This heat transfer is same for any radial position in the annalus.

Here, heat transfer is taking placfenly in radial direction, so this is case of one dimentional conduction, hence Fourier's law of conduction is applicable.

Now, according to Fourier's law:

q=-kA\frac{dT}{dr}\;\cdots(i)

where,

K=Thermal conductivity of the material.

T= temperature at any radial distance r.

A=Area through which heat transfer is taking place.

Here, A=2\pi rL\;\cdots(ii)

Variation of temperature w.r.t the radius of the annalus is

\frac {T-T_1}{T_2-T_1}=\frac{\ln(r/r_1)}{\ln(r_2/r_1)}

\Rightarrow \frac{dT}{dr}=\frac{T_2-T_1}{\ln(r_2/r_1)}\times \frac{1}{r}\;\cdots(iii)

Putting the values from the equations (ii) and (iii) in the equation (i), we have

q=\frac{2\pi kL(T_1-T_2)}{\LN(R_2/2_1)}

\Rightarrow k= \frac{q\ln(r_2/r_1)}{2\pi L(T_2-T_1)}

\Rightarrow k=\frac{(2.4\pi L)\ln(r_2/r_1)}{2\pi L(10)} [as q=2.4\pi L, and T_2-T_1=10 ^{\circ}C]

\Rightarrow k=0.12\ln(r_2/r_1)\frac {W}{ m^{\circ} C}

This is the required expression of k. By putting the value of inner and outer radii, the thermal conductivity of the material can be determined.

A plane wall of thickness 0.1 m and thermal conductivity 25 W/m·K having uniform volumetric heat generation of 0.3 MW/m3 is insu
Contact [7]

Answer:

T = 167 ° C

Explanation:

To solve the question we have the following known variables

Type of surface = plane wall ,

Thermal conductivity k = 25.0 W/m·K,  

Thickness L = 0.1 m,

Heat generation rate q' = 0.300 MW/m³,

Heat transfer coefficient hc = 400 W/m² ·K,

Ambient temperature T∞ = 32.0 °C

We are to determine the maximum temperature in the wall

Assumptions for the calculation are as follows

  • Negligible heat loss through the insulation
  • Steady state system
  • One dimensional conduction across the wall

Therefore by the one dimensional conduction equation we have

k\frac{d^{2}T }{dx^{2} } +q'_{G} = \rho c\frac{dT}{dt}

During steady state

\frac{dT}{dt} = 0 which gives k\frac{d^{2}T }{dx^{2} } +q'_{G} = 0

From which we have \frac{d^{2}T }{dx^{2} }  = -\frac{q'_{G}}{k}

Considering the boundary condition at x =0 where there is no heat loss

 \frac{dT}{dt} = 0 also at the other end of the plane wall we have

-k\frac{dT }{dx } = hc (T - T∞) at point x = L

Integrating the equation we have

\frac{dT }{dx }  = \frac{q'_{G}}{k} x+ C_{1} from which C₁ is evaluated from the first boundary condition thus

0 = \frac{q'_{G}}{k} (0)+ C_{1}  from which C₁ = 0

From the second integration we have

T  = -\frac{q'_{G}}{2k} x^{2} + C_{2}

From which we can solve for C₂ by substituting the T and the first derivative into the second boundary condition s follows

-k\frac{q'_{G}L}{k} = h_{c}( -\frac{q'_{G}L^{2} }{k}  + C_{2}-T∞) → C₂ = q'_{G}L(\frac{1}{h_{c} }+ \frac{L}{2k} } )+T∞

T(x) = \frac{q'_{G}}{2k} x^{2} + q'_{G}L(\frac{1}{h_{c} }+ \frac{L}{2k} } )+T∞ and T(x) = T∞ + \frac{q'_{G}}{2k} (L^{2}+(\frac{2kL}{h_{c} }} )-x^{2} )

∴ Tmax → when x = 0 = T∞ + \frac{q'_{G}}{2k} (L^{2}+(\frac{2kL}{h_{c} }} ))

Substituting the values we get

T = 167 ° C

One method that is used to grow nanowires (nanotubes with solid cores) is to initially deposit a small droplet of a liquid catal
7nadin3 [17]

Answer: maximum length of the nanowire is 510 nm

Explanation:

 

From the table of 'Thermo physical properties of selected nonmetallic solids at At T = 1500 K

Thermal conductivity of silicon carbide k = 30 W/m.K

Diameter of silicon carbide nanowire, D = 15 x 10⁻⁹ m  

lets consider the equation for the value of m

m = ( (hP/kAc)^1/2 )  = ( (4h/kD)^1/2 )  

m =  ( ((4 × 10⁵)/(30×15×10⁻⁹ ))^1/2 ) = 942809.04    

now lets find the value of h/mk    

h/mk = 10⁵ / ( 942809.04 × 30) =  0.00353

lets consider the value θ/θb by using the equation

θ/θb = (T - T∞) / (T - T∞)

θ/θb =  (3000 - 8000) / (2400 - 8000)

= 0.893

the temperature distribution at steady-state is expressed as;

θ/θb = [ cosh m(L - x) + ( h/mk) sinh m (L - x)]   / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

θ/θb = [ cosh m(L - L) + ( h/mk) sinh m (L - L)]   / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

θ/θb = [ 1 ]  / [cosh mL+  (h/mk) sinh mL]

so we substitute

0.893 =  [ 1 ]  / [cosh (942809.04 × L) +  (0.00353) sinh (942809.04 × L)]

L = 510 × 10⁻⁹m

L = 510 nm

therefore maximum length of the nanowire is 510 nm
