Answer:
the action or process of differentiating or distinguishing between two or more things or people.
Answer:
Basically there are two principal differences between the convection and conduction heat transfer
Explanation:
The conduction heat transfer is referred to the transfer between two solids due a temperature difference, while for, the convective heat transfer is referred to the transfer between a fluid (liquid or gas) and a solid. Also, they used different coefficients for its calculation.
We can include on the explanation that conduction thermal transfer is due to temperature difference, while convection thermal transfer is due to density difference.
Complete question:
A structural component in the form of a wide plate is to be fabricated from a steel alloy that has a plane strain fracture toughness of 98.9 MPa root m (90 ksi root in.) and a yield strength of 860 MPa (125,000 psi). The flaw size resolution limit of the flaw detection apparatus is 3.0 mm (0.12 in.). If the design stress is one-half of the yield strength and the value of Y is 1.0, determine whether or not a critical flaw for this plate is subject to detection.
Answer:
Since the flaw 17mm is greater than 3 mm the critical flaw for this plate is subject to detection
so that critical flow is subject to detection
Explanation:
We are given:
Plane strain fracture toughness K 
Yield strength Y = 860 MPa
Flaw detection apparatus = 3.0mm (12in)
y = 1.0
Let's use the expression:

We already know
K= design
a = length of surface creak
Since we are to find the length of surface creak, we will make "a" subject of the formula in the expression above.
Therefore
![a= \frac{1}{pi} * [\frac{k}{y*a}]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20a%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bpi%7D%20%2A%20%5B%5Cfrac%7Bk%7D%7By%2Aa%7D%5D%5E2%20)
Substituting figures in the expression above, we have:
![= \frac{1}{pi} * [\frac{98.9 MPa \sqrt{m}} {10 * \frac{860MPa}{2}}]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bpi%7D%20%2A%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B98.9%20MPa%20%5Csqrt%7Bm%7D%7D%20%7B10%20%2A%20%5Cfrac%7B860MPa%7D%7B2%7D%7D%5D%5E2)
= 0.0168 m
= 17mm
Therefore, since the flaw 17mm > 3 mm the critical flow is subject to detection
Answer:
Relative density = 0.545
Degree of saturation = 24.77%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Water content, w = 5%
Bulk unit weight = 18.0 kN/m³
Void ratio in the densest state,
= 0.51
Void ratio in the loosest state,
= 0.87
Now,
Dry density, 

= 17.14 kN/m³
Also,

here, G = Specific gravity = 2.7 for sand

or
e = 0.545
Relative density = 
= 
= 0.902
Also,
Se = wG
here,
S is the degree of saturation
therefore,
S(0.545) = (0.05)()2.7
or
S = 0.2477
or
S = 0.2477 × 100% = 24.77%
Answer:
401.3 kg/s
Explanation:
The power plant has an efficiency of 36%. This means 64% of the heat form the source (q1) will become waste heat. Of the waste heat, 85% will be taken away by water (qw).
qw = 0.85 * q2
q2 = 0.64 * q1
p = 0.36 * q1
q1 = p /0.36
q2 = 0.64/0.36 * p
qw = 0.85 *0.64/0.36 * p
qw = 0.85 *0.64/0.36 * 600 = 907 MW
In evaporation water becomes vapor absorbing heat without going to the boiling point (similar to how sweating takes heat from the human body)
The latent heat for the vaporization of water is:
SLH = 2.26 MJ/kg
So, to dissipate 907 MW
G = qw * SLH = 907 / 2.26 = 401.3 kg/s
