Practice Problems Set – 1 MEC301: Heat Transfer Q.1 The slab shown in the figure is embedded on five sides in insulation materials. The sixth side is exposed to an ambient temperature through a heat transfer coefficient. Heat is generated in the slab at the rate of 1.0 kW/m3. The thermal conductivity of the slab is 0.2 W/m-K. (a) Solve for the temperature distribution in the slab‚ noting any assumptions you must make. Be careful to clearly identify the boundary conditions. (b) Evaluate T at the

DETERMINATION OF THE HEAT OF SOLUTION BY THE VANT HOFF ISOCHORE METHOD Jan Vincent Arafiles‚ Merry Joy Arzaga‚ Anne Louise Ayson‚ Lovely Jenny Buenaflor Group 2 3A-Biochemistry chem401 laboratory ABSTRACT Thermodynamic values can be determined using the Vant Hoff isochore method. This method entails the use of equilibrium systems to determine the change in enthalpy of the solution‚ which can b related to the change in internal energy of the solution. The van ’t Hoff isochore relates

The hypothesis about heat death of the universe Our knowledge of the universe is still negligible‚ and we can not confidently assert that the universe is not under the influence of external forces‚ or may be considered as a thermodynamic system. However‚ it is the concept of heat death was the first step to realize the possible finiteness of the Universe‚ although we do not know when and on what scenario will happen of its destruction. At the present stage of existence (13.72 billion years)‚

AIR-STANDARD ANALYSIS: INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES Air-standard analysis treats the fluid flow through the entire engine as air and approxi¬mates air as an ideal gas. In a real engine inlet flow may be all air‚ or it may be mixed‚ up with 7% fuel‚ either gaseous or as liquid droplets‚ or both. In air-standard analysis‚ even if all fluid in an engine cycle were air‚ some error would be introduced by assuming it to be an ideal gas with constant specific heats. At the low pressures of inlet and

Experiment #1: Introduction to Experimentation Submitted by: Neann Klara M. De Jesus BS Psychology II Submitted to: Dr. Geraldine E. Tria ABSTRACT SUMMARY The first experiment done by the class was called “Introduction to Experimentation”. Its main objective is to give basic knowledge about some of the logic of experimentation. The class was divided into groups of 2. In each group there was an experimenter (E) and a subject (S). The experimenter instructed

Austin Vandermey GS-1140 April 4th‚ 2015 Experiment We as a society have one big problem on our hands. This problem is sleep deprivation because there are not enough hours in the day to get stuff done. Between work‚ school‚ family‚ and leisure it seems like we do not have enough time to get are daily tasks done let alone have time for sleep. It is recommended by the U.S Department of Health that people need a solid eight hours of sleep to maintain good health. I don’t know about you

Spark in I.C. Engine Abstract It is very interesting to know about complete combustion in automobile engineering‚ because in actual practice‚ perfect combustion is not at all possible due to various losses in the combustion chamber as well as design of the internal combustion engine. Moreover the process of burning of the fuel is also not instantaneous. However an alternate solution to it is by making the combustion of fuel as fast as possible. This can be done by using two spark plugs which

EXPERIMENT 5 REDOX TITRATION: TITRATION USING SODIUM THIOSULPHATE Objectives 1. 2. To prepare a standard solution of potassium iodate for use to determine the concentration of sodium thiosulphate solution accurately. To acquire the proper techniques of carrying out a titration. Introduction Redox titrations using sodium thiosulphate as a reducing agent is known as iodometric titration since it is used specifically to titrate iodine. The reaction involved is: I2 + 2Na2S2O3 I2 + 2S2O322NaI + Na2S4O6
