A common procedure for measuring the velocity of an air stream involves insertion of an electrically heated wire (called a hot-w

ire anemometer) into the air flow, with the axis of the wire oriented perpendicular to the flow direction. The electrical energy dissipated in the wire is assumed to be transferred to the air by forced convection. Hence, for a prescribed electrical power, the temperature of the wire depends on the convection coefficient, which, in turn, depends on the velocity of the air. Consider a wire of length L - 20 mm and diameter D = 0.5 mm, for which a calibration of the form. V = 6.25 times 10-5 h2, has been determined. The velocity V and the convection coefficient h have units of m/s and W/m2 K, respectively. In an application involving air at a temperature of Tx = 25 degree C, the surface temperature of the anemometer is maintained at Ts = 75 degree C with a voltage drop of 5 V and an electric current of 0.1 A. What is the velocity of the air?

Answer:

V = 6.33 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

- The length of the wire L = 0.02 m

- The diameter of the wire D = 0.0005 m

- The calibration expression V = 0.0000625*h^2

- Environment temperature T_inf = 298 K

- Surface temperature T_s = 348 K

- The voltage drop dV = 5 V

- The electric current I = 0.1 A

Find:

- the velocity of Air

Solution:

- Calculate the surface area of the wire:

                             A = pi*D*L

                             A = pi*(0.0005)*(0.02) = 0.00003142 m^2

- The rate of energy in the wire P:

                             P = I*dV = 0.1*5 = 0.5 W

- Apply Newton's Law of Cooling:

                            P = h*A*(T_s - T_inf)

                            h =  P /A*(T_s - T_inf)

Plug in the values:

                             h= 0.5/ 0.00003142*(348 - 298)

                             h = 318.27 W /m^2K

- Using the calibration relationship given, compute the velocity of air:

                             V = 6.25*10^-5 * h^2

                             V = 6.25*10^-5 * (318.27)^2

                             V = 6.33 m/s

while performing a running compression test how should running compression compare to static compression
algol [13]

Answer:

The idle speed of a running compression should be between 50-75 PSI and that is about half of the static compression.

Explanation:

The Running or Dynamic compression is used to determine how well the cylinder in an engine  is absorbing air, reserving it for the proper length of time, and releasing it to the exhaust. The static or cranking compression test is used to check the sealing of the cylinder. Before performing the running compression test, the static compression test is first performed to rule out other issues like bent valves.

The standard value for the static compression is given by;

Compression ratio * 14.7 = Manufacturers Specification

The running compression should always be half of the static compression.
