    Heat Transfer

    • 4676 Words
    • 19 Pages

    Heat transfer Heat transfer is the transition of thermal energy from a hotter object to a cooler object ("object" in this sense designating a complex collection of particles which is capable of storing energy in many different ways). When an object or fluid is at a different temperature than its surroundings or another object‚ transfer of thermal energy‚ also known as heat transfer‚ or heat exchange‚ occurs in such a way that the body and the surroundings reach thermal equilibrium‚ this means that

    Syracuse[1] formulated this principle‚ which bears his name. Practically seen‚ the Archimedes principle allows us to measure the volume of our container‚ by measuring the volume of the liquid it displaces after the submerging and b) to calculate the buoyancy of an object immersed into a liquid. We may observe for any immersed object that the volume of the submerged portion equals the volume of fluid it displaces. E.g.‚ by submerging in water half of a sealed 1-liter container‚ we displace a half-liter volume of

    Student Instructions: Why does a hot air balloon float even though it is so heavy? Hot air balloons float because the buoyancy force of the hot air is more than the weight. Buoyancy occurs because the hot air has a lower density than the cooler outside air. This lower density air weighs less than the air it replaces and that difference is the buoyancy. What makes balloons float when they are full of air but not float when they are deflated? Balloons float when they are full of hot air

    point B is the centre of buoyancy (the centroid of the displaced volume of fluid) where the upward buoyancy force‚ FB‚ acts. When the body is tilted the centre of buoyancy moves to a new position‚ B’‚ because the shape of the displaced volume changes. A new point‚ M‚ may be defined‚ called the METACENTRE. This is the point where a vertical line drawn upwards from the new centre of buoyancy‚ B’‚ of the tilted body intersects the line of symmetry of the body. The buoyancy force‚ FB‚ now acts through

    take the mean of the two temperatures you have measured as the effective temperature of the water during the calibration. Calculations 1. Find the mean of the four trials. The mean volume can now be determined from the mean mass and the density of water at the temperature you determined in 6 above. However‚ there is a correction to be made for the upthrust of air on the water during the weighing. In normal day-to-day use of balances we neglect this correction‚ but now that we are interested

    and sink in freshwater. Research: Since the egg’s density is higher than the density of freshwater the egg will sink. Density is mass per unit volume‚ which means a measure of how much mater is in a certain volume. If you add enough salt the egg will float again. The salt makes the water denser because the salt creates more mass and some what keeps the volume at the same level. When enough salt is add that means that the water has a higher density level than the egg. The ability of making something

    the angle of the tilt. The theory behind the inclination test goes as follows. A floating body shall experience net vertical buoyancy force B (upward) that balance with its weight W (downward)‚ i.e.‚ B=W. The weight of the floating body W acts through its center of gravity (xG‚ zG) while the buoyancy force B acts through the centriod of the displaced volume (called buoyancy center). When the barge is inclined at an angle ‚ the balance of moments
