What does the line strung between the batter boards represent?

2 answers:

7 0

Batter boards (or battre boards, Sometimes mispronounced as "battle boads") are temporary frames, set beyond the corners of a planned foundation at precise elevations. These batter boards are then used to hold layout lines (construction twine) to indicate the limits (edges and corners) of the foundation.

Batter boards are temporary boards set up so string lines can be attached between them. These lines represent the final height, length and depth of the slab. Drive some stakes into the ground next to the batter boards you just placed on the ground.

Answer:

1) The exergy of destruction is approximately 456.93 kW

2) The reversible power output is approximately 5456.93 kW

Explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

P₁ = 8 MPa

T₁ = 500°C

From which we have;

s₁ = 6.727 kJ/(kg·K)

h₁ = 3399 kJ/kg

P₂ = 2 MPa

T₂ = 350°C

From which we have;

s₂ = 6.958 kJ/(kg·K)

h₂ = 3138 kJ/kg

P₃ = 2 MPa

T₃ = 500°C

From which we have;

s₃ = 7.434 kJ/(kg·K)

h₃ = 3468 kJ/kg

P₄ = 30 KPa

T₄ = 69.09 C (saturation temperature)

From which we have;

h₄ = $h_{f4}$ + x₄× $h_{fg}$ = 289.229 + 0.97*2335.32 = 2554.49 kJ/kg

s₄ = $s_{f4}$ + x₄× $s_{fg}$ = 0.94394 + 0.97*6.8235 ≈ 7.563 kJ/(kg·K)

The exergy of destruction, $\dot X_{dest}$ , is given as follows;

$\dot X_{dest}$ = T₀ × $\dot S_{gen}$ = T₀ × $\dot m$ × (s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)

$\dot X_{dest}$ = T₀ × $\dot W$ ×(s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)/(h₁ + h₃ - h₂ - h₄)

∴ $\dot X_{dest}$ = 298.15 × 5000 × (7.563 + 6.958 - 6.727 - 7.434)/(3399 + 3468 - 3138 - 2554.49) ≈ 456.93 kW

The exergy of destruction ≈ 456.93 kW

2) The reversible power output, $\dot W_{rev}$ = $\dot W_{}$ + $\dot X_{dest}$ ≈ 5000 + 456.93 kW = 5456.93 kW

The reversible power output ≈ 5456.93 kW.

Anna makes arrangements to reuse waste water that has been used in sinks and showers. Which term refers to the waste water that

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Greywater.

Explanation:

Greywater is also known as sullage and it can be defined as any form of gently used wastewater derived from sources within a residential or office building such as showers, washing machines, bathroom sinks, bathroom tub, etc.

Generally, greywater or sullage is completely free of fecal materials (faeces) because it is independent from all toilet activities. However, greywater is not clean for direct use because it usually contains food particles, dirt, oil from dishes, hair, etc.

In this scenario, Anna makes arrangements to reuse waste water that has been used in sinks and showers. Greywater is a term which refers to the waste water that Anna reuses to conserve resources.

Therefore, Anna reuses greywater to conserve resources.
