Cl 242 Tutorial 1: Conduction 1. The rear window of an automobile is defogged by attaching a thin heating element to its inner surface. By electrically heating the element‚ a uniform heat flux may be established at the inner surface. For 4 mm thick window glass‚ determine the electrical power required per unit window area to maintain an inner surface temperature of 150C when the interior air temperature and convection coefficient are Ti = 25 0C and hi = 10 W/m2.K‚ while the exterior (ambient )

Diffusion is one of several transport phenomena that occur in nature. A distinguishing feature of diffusion is that it results in mixing or mass transport without requiring bulk motion. Thus‚ diffusion should not be confused with convection or advection‚ which are other transport mechanisms that use bulk motion to move particles from one place to another. In Latin‚ "diffundere" means "to spread out". There are two ways to introduce the notion of diffusion: either a phenomenological approach starting

As the title of this lesson suggests‚ this lesson focuses on the efficiency of appliances and how we can calculate this‚ introduces ourselves to the various forms of energy‚ how this energy is transformed‚ and discusses recommendations to conserve it. This lesson started by stating the importance and multiple uses that we give electricity. This is the main (and only as far as I can tell) source of energy that our electrical devices need to work and give us all of the amenities that we have come

Homeostasis Homeostasis Is a technical term for the process of maintain a constant internal environment despite external changes. The internal environment‚ compromises; blood‚ tissue fluid‚ body cell contents and all the metabolic processes taking place. Constant in this instance is not absolute or fixed it is much more flexible and dynamic as it refers to the physical and chemical composition being kept within a limited range or variables for maximum efficiency‚ well-being of the whole body and

Figure 1.3 Possible combinations of renewable sources with water desalination [11] The potential use of renewable energy sources in small-scale desalination in remote communities has received increasing attention in recent years. The integration of renewable energy sources such as solar‚ wind and geothermal energy with desalination systems holds great promise for tackling water shortage and is a potential for viable solution of climate change problems

Why an ice cube at 0°C is more effective in cooling soft drink than the same mass of water at 0 °C? Enthalpy of fusion is the change in enthalpy resulting from heating a given quantity of a substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid. The temperature at which this occurs is the melting point would

If the warm air is at T∞‚i = 40oC and the corresponding convection coefficient is hi =30 W/m2.K‚ what are the inner and outer surface temperatures of 4 mm thick window glass‚ if the outside ambient air temperature is T∞‚o = -10oC and the associated convection coefficient is ho = 65 W/m2.K? 3) The steady-state temperature
