Briefly describe the function of the thermostatic expansion valve in a vapour compression refrigeration system

Engineering
1 answer:
dalvyx [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Thermostatic expansion valve is mainly a throttling device commonly used in air conditioning systems and refrigerators.

It is an automatic valve that maintains proper flow of refrigerant in the evaporator according to  the load inside the evaporator. When the load in the evaporator is higher the valve opens and  allows the increase in flow of refrigerant and when the load reduces the valve closes a bit and  reduces the flow of refrigerant. This process leads to higher efficiency of compressor as well as the whole refrigeration system.  Thus TEV works to reduce the pressure of refrigerant from higher condenser pressure to the lower evaporator pressure. It also keeps the evaporator active.

Answer:

The current through each lamp is 0.273 Amperes

Power dissipated in each lamp is 0.082W

Explanation:

Battery v = 1.5 V

Each lamp has resistance, r = 1.1 Ohms

The 5 lamps in series will therefore have total resistance, R = 5 * 1.1 = 5.5 Ohms

The current through each lamp, I = v/R = 1.5 / 5.5 = 0.273 Amperes

Power dissipated in each lamp = I² * r = 0.273² * 1.1 = 0.082W

Answer:

A civil engineer.

Explanation:

Civil engineering is the science that deals with the design, creation and maintenance of constructions for civil use on the earth's surface. Thus, this specialty seeks to adapt soils to the needs of life in society, creating buildings, bridges, and all other constructions adapted to civil life, while taking care of the correct use of soils and the correct distribution of spaces and resources. to be used for such constructions.

Why does an object under forced convection reach a steady-state faster than an object subjected to free-convection?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Free convection:

   When heat transfer occurs due to density difference between fluid then this type of heat transfer is know as free convection.The velocity of fluid is zero or we can say that fluid is not moving.

Force convection:

   When heat transfer occurs due to some external force then this type of heat transfer is know as force convection.The velocity of fluid is not zero or we can say that fluid is moving in force convection.

Heat transfer coefficient of force convection is high as compare to the natural convection.That is why heat force convection reach a steady-state faster than an object subjected to free-convection.

We know that convective heat transfer given as

 q = h  A ΔT

h=Heat transfer coefficient

A= Surface area

ΔT = Temperature difference
