Which of the following Identifies the challenges faced by scientists experimenting with using artificial photosynthesis as

Engineering
1 answer:
bezimeni [28]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The cost and size of materials needed to produce energy

Explanation:

Artificial photosynthesis is a chemical process that uses solar cells instead of chlorophyll to absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity. This process uses artificial leaves that require man-made catalyst to spilt water present in the air into hydrogen and oxygen. It is clear that the reaction requires heat from the sun for energy production thus the technology is expensive to be applied in most areas of the world. Additionally, results obtained from previous undertaken projects of this type has been ineffective and unsustainable because it involves a lot of trial and error.

Liquid flows at steady state at a rate of 2 lb/s through a pump, which operates to raise the elevation of the liquid 100 ft from
Greeley [361]

Answer:

D) 1.04 Btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.

Explanation:

Given that:

flow rate (m) = 2 lb/s

liquid specific enthalpy at the inlet (h_{1}=40.09 Btu/lb)

liquid specific enthalpy at the exit (h_{2}=40.94 Btu/lb)

initial elevation (z_1=0ft)

final elevation (z_2=100ft)

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 32.174 ft/s²

W_{cv} = 3 Btu/s

The energy balance equation is given as:

Q_{cv}-W{cv}+m[(h_1-h_2)+(\frac{V_1^2-V_2^2}{2})+g(z_1-z_2)]=0

Since  kinetic energy effects are negligible, the equation becomes:

Q_{cv}-W{cv}+m[(h_1-h_2)+g(z_1-z_2)]=0

Substituting values:

Q_{cv}-(-3)+2[(40.09-40.94)+\frac{32.174(0-100)}{778*32.174} ]=0\\Q_{cv}+3+2[-0.85-0.1285 ]=0\\Q_{cv}+3+2(-0.9785)=0\\Q_{cv}+3-1.957=0\\Q_{cv}+1.04=0\\Q_{cv}=-1.04\\

The heat transfer rate is 1.04 Btu/s from the liquid to the surroundings.

An alloy fin with a thermal conductivity of 200 W/ሺm ∙ Kሻ has a length of 2.5 cm and a thickness of 3.5 mm. The base of the fin
Svetllana [295]

Answer: heat flux into the fun is 21.714 mW/m^2

Explanation:

Heat flux Q = q/A

q = heat transfer rate W

A = area m^2

q = area * conductivity * temperature gradient

Temperature gradient = difference in temperature of the metal faces divided by the thickness.

Therefore Q = k * ( temp. gradient)

Q = 200 * ((400-20)/3.5*10^-2)

Q = 21714285.71 = 21.714 mW/m^2

Answer 2: convective heat transfer flux between fin and air

is 3800W/m^2

Explanation :

q = hA*(Ts-Ta)

h = convective heat transfer coefficient

Ts = temperature of fin

Ta = temperature of air

Q = q/A

Q = h(Ts-Ta)

Q = 10(400 - 20)

Q = 3800 W/m^2

Estimate the heating energy requirements for a residential building using the degree-day method (a) in Denver, Colorado, and (b)
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

a) 600°F  days

b) 103°F  days

Explanation:

Given data :

overall heat loss coefficient = 400 Btu/h.oF

Furnace efficiency = 0.78

applying the degree- day method the heating energy requirement per day can be obtained by subtracting the average temperature for a particular day from the acceptable mid/balance point temperature

lets assume the mid/balance point temperature = 65°F

a) heating energy requirement in Denver Colorado

 we will have 600°F days  ; considering the  the average temperature - balance point temperature

= 665 - 65 = 600°F

b) heating energy requirement in Little Rock Arkansas

 we will have 103°  days
