Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

The isohyetal method is one used in estimating Rainfall whereby the mean precipitation across an area is gotten by drawing lines that have equal precipitation. This is done by the use of topographic and other data to yield reliable estimates.

Whereas, the arithmetic method is used to calculate true precipitation by the way of getting the arithmetic mean of all the points or arial measurements that will be considered in the analysis.

A pipe of 0.3 m outer diameter at a temperature of 160°C is insulated with a material having a thermal conductivity of k = 0.055

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Q=0.95 W/m

Explanation:

Given that

Outer diameter = 0.3 m

Thermal conductivity of material

$K= 0.055(1+2.8\times 10^{-3}T)\frac{W}{mK}$

So the mean conductivity

$K_m=0.055\left ( 1+2.8\times 10^{-3}T_m \right )$

$T_m=\dfrac{160+273+40+273}{2}$

$T_m=373 K$

$K_m=0.055\left ( 1+2.8\times 10^{-3}\times 373 \right )$

$K_m=0.112 \frac{W}{mK}$

So heat conduction through cylinder

$Q=kA\dfrac{\Delta T}{L}$

$Q=0.112\times \pi \times 0.15^2\times 120$

Q=0.95 W/m

Suppose a large amount of power is required. Which engine would you choose between Otto and Diesel? Why?

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Otto engine

Explanation:

As we know that

Power = Torque x speed

So we can say that when speed of engine then power of engine also will increases.

The speed of Otto engine is more as compare to Diesel engine so the power of Otto engine is more.But on the other hand torque of Diesel engine is more as compare to Otto engine but the speed is low so the product of speed and torque is more for Otto engine .It means that when requires large amount of power then Otto engine should be use.
