A smoking lounge is to accommodate 19 heavy smokers. The minimum fresh air requirement for smoking lounges is specified to be 30

L/s per person (ASHRAE, Standard 62, 1989). Determine the minimum required flow rate of fresh air that needs to be supplied to the lounge and the diameter of the duct if the air velocity is not to exceed 8 m/s. (Round the final answers to two and three decimal places, respectively.) The minimum required flow rate of fresh air that needs to be supplied to the lounge is m3/s. The diameter of the duct if the air velocity is not to exceed 8 m/s is m.

Answer 1: minimum required flow rate of fresh air is 0.57 m^3/ses

Explanation: since the minimum requirement per person is 30 L/sec

Converting to m^3 it becomes

30/1000 = 0.03 m^3/sec

For 19 heavy smoker we will require

19 * 0.03 = 0.57m^3/sec

Answer 2: diameter of the duct will be 0.3m

Explanation: since flow rate is

Q =0.57m^3/sec

Also

Q = AV (continuity equation)

Where A is the duct area and V is the velocity of air flow in m/sec

0.57m^3/sec = A * 8m/sec

A = 0.57/8 = 0.071m^2

Area of the duct is that of a circle

A = 3.142 *(d^2 ÷4)

d^2 = (0.017 * 4)/3.142 = 0.09

d is square root of 0.09

d = 0.3m

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

In ferrous metal iron present but on the other hand in the non ferrous material iron does not present.That is why there is a different heat treatment process for ferrous and nonferrous materials.

Ferrous materials contains iron is the main constitute.Like steel ,cast iron ,wrought iron .Steel and cast iron are  the alloy element of iron ans carbon.Wrought iron is the purest from of iron.

Heat treatment process for  ferrous materials :

1.Normalizing

2.Annealing

3.Quenching

4.Surface hardening

Heat treatment process for non ferrous materials :

Mostly annealing process is used for non ferrous materials.After annealing non ferrous will become soft.

When two metal plates are joined then they form a bimetallic structure.The bimetallic structure is used to find the relationship of thermal temperature and the mechanical displacement.

The use of bimetallic structure -In clock ,thermometers ,engines.

Why is it important to know the accuracy and precision of a measuring device? Do you think that the dial caliper manufacturer’s
Leto [7]

Answer:

Accuracy and precision allow us to know how much we can rely on a measuring device readings. ±.001 as a "accuracy" claim is vague because there is no unit next to the figure and the claim fits better to the definition of precision.

Explanation:

Accuracy and Precision: the golden couple.

Accuracy and precision are key elements to define if a measuring device is reliable or not for a specific task. Accuracy determines how close are the readings from the ideal/calculated values. On the other hand, precision refers to repeatability, that is to say how constant the readings of a device are when measuring the same element at different times. One of those two key concepts may not fulfill the criteria for measuring tool to be used on certain engineering projects where lack of accuracy (disntant values from real ones) or precision (not constant readings) may lead to malfunctons and severe delays on the project development.

±.001 what unit?

The manufacturer says that is an accuracy indicator, nevertheless there is now unit stated so this is not useful to see how accurate the device is. Additionally, That notation is more used to refer to device tolerances, that is to say the range of possible values the instrument may show when reading and element. It means it tells us more about the device precision during measurments than actual accuracy. I would recommend the following to the dial calipers manufacturers to better explain its measurement specifications:

  1. Use  ±.001 as  a reference for precision. It is important to add the respective unit for that figure.
  2. Condcut test to define the actual accuracy value an present it using one of the common used units for that:  Error percentage or ppm.

technician a says that hydrogen exists by itself in nature. technician b says that hydrogen has better specific energy than foss
Nikitich [7]

Technician b says that hydrogen has better specific energy than fossil fuels. so technician b is correct.

<h3>Does hydrogen have the highest specific energy?</h3>
  • Although hydrogen has the highest energy density per mass of any fuel, it has the lowest energy density per unit volume due to its low ambient temperature density, necessitating the development of new storage technologies with the potential for higher energy density.
  • Hydrogen is utilized as a rocket fuel and in fuel cells to generate power on some spacecraft because it is beneficial as an energy source or fuel due to its high energy content per unit of weight.
  • Since hydrogen has a significantly higher energy content than fossil fuels, less of it is required to carry out any given task.
