Do plastic materials have high or low ductility? Explain why.

1 answer:

3 0

The impact behavior of plastic materials is strongly dependent upon the temperature. At high temperatures, materials are more ductile and have high impact toughness. At low temperatures, some plastics that would be ductile at room temperature become brittle.

A sheet of steel 3-mm thick has nitrogen atomospheres on both sides at 900 C and is permitted to achieve a steady-state di usion

kati45 [8]

Answer:

$X_B = 1.8 \times 10^{-3} m = 1.8 mm$

Explanation:

Given data:

Diffusion constant for nitrogen is $= 1.85\times 10^{-10} m^2/s$

Diffusion flux $= 1.0\times 10^{-7} kg/m^2-s$

concentration of nitrogen at high presuure = 2 kg/m^3

location on which nitrogen concentration is 0.5 kg/m^3 ......?

from fick's first law

$J = D \frac{C_A C_B}{X_A X_B}$

Take C_A as point on which nitrogen concentration is 2 kg/m^3

$x_B = X_A + D\frac{C_A -C_B}{J}$

Assume X_A is zero at the surface

$X_B = 0 + ( 12\times 10^{-11} ) \frac{2-0.5}{1\times 10^{-7}}$

$X_B = 1.8 \times 10^{-3} m = 1.8 mm$

Briefly describe the function of the thermostatic expansion valve in a vapour compression refrigeration system

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Thermostatic expansion valve is mainly a throttling device commonly used in air conditioning systems and refrigerators.

It is an automatic valve that maintains proper flow of refrigerant in the evaporator according to the load inside the evaporator. When the load in the evaporator is higher the valve opens and allows the increase in flow of refrigerant and when the load reduces the valve closes a bit and reduces the flow of refrigerant. This process leads to higher efficiency of compressor as well as the whole refrigeration system. Thus TEV works to reduce the pressure of refrigerant from higher condenser pressure to the lower evaporator pressure. It also keeps the evaporator active.
