2. The vapor-compression refrigeration cycle is the most broadly used cycle for refrigerators, air conditioning systems, and heat pumps. It consists of four processes: Process 1-2 Isentropic compression in a compressor. Process 2-3 Constant- pressure heat rejection in a condenser. Process 3-4 Throttling in an expansion device. Process 4-1 Constant –pressure heat absorption in an evaporator. In the ideal vapour-compression refrigeration cycle, the refrigerant enters as a saturated…

The experiment of fluidization in packed column was determined by using air as the conveying media. The fluidized bed is when the air make the solid to behave like a fluid. For this experiment, two columns are use which one column are filled with sand and the other one filled with aluminum oxide. The bed height of aluminum oxide is 100 mm and have a particle size about 250 micron (mesh 60). The minimum fluidization velocity is used to determine the pressure drop. As mentioned above, when the…

Description of the proposed heat release rate model. The cylinder gas is considered as a spatially homogeneous thermodynamic system occupying in a single zone for the compression, expansion, intake, exhaust processes and two zones (burned and unburned zone) for the combustion process. The instantaneous composition of cylinder gases are obtained from the mass fraction of fuel burned. The instantaneous thermodynamic properties are computed by the established equations [20-21, 28]. The…

Omar Lab 1 Cover letter Dear Dr. …………., This experiment aims at determining carbon (IV) dioxide bubble and dew points as a single component by the use of PVT stimulator at four distinctive temperatures. Besides, it determines the increasing of pressure effect on the carbon (IV) dioxide two-phase envelope. The starting pressure was set at two thousand psi with a (±0.1 psi precision. The beginning volume for carbon (IV) dioxide gas was set at zero while the liquid carbon (IV) dioxide at 14.7 cc…

If your AC starts blowing hot air it may be due to the fact that it is freezing up. The coil is an important part of cooling your house up. The coils works by taking the warm air from your home and releasing them outside. If the coils in your AC unit become too cold they can freeze up. When your coils are frozen the ice can cause blockages, this results in you AC unit to run without cooling the home, whilst using a lot more electricity than usual. Why Do the Coils Continually Freeze Up? One…

All metal manufacturing includes a solidification process. The metal is either atomised to a powder, or it is cast. There is several casting methods used today. Many of the methods use the mould only once, for example sand mould casting, the lost-wax method and precision casting. For larger quantities of liquid metal, there are basically two methods: ingot casting and continuous casting. Ingot casting normally uses a permanent mould made by cast iron isolated by ceramic material. There are…

Many people wonder what the best conditions are for growing crystals. Crystals are ordinarily made out of silicon dioxide molecules formed into an interlaced pattern ,or quartz, moreover sodium with chlorine ions interweaved (Science Line). Crystals are often found in mines everywhere, rocks, or even in your own home. These beautiful minerals are very intriguing. It is a worthwhile subject to research. My scientific question is in “In what temperature do crystals grow the longest ?”My hypothesis…

curtain wall system is consisted of double skin with an exterior wall separated by 80 centimeters from the interior wall. This structure provides comport space through main components such as spaced walls and air. The two walls insulate and protect from heat loss and the air space helps to keep the temperature and avoid noise from outside(figure…

There are six principles of pressure. One will explain each of the six principles of pressure. Also, state why it is important that the fire and emergency services personnel understand these six principles. The first principle is stating that the water is trying to burst out, therefore, it pushes and applies pressure to all confining contacting walls within a system. Water will behave differently in open containers than in confined spaces of firefighting systems (Sturzenbecker, Adams, &…

the absorption of heat. This is when the pack gets hotter. Exothermic is the release of heat. This is when the pack gets colder. The enthalpy of dissolution for these salts determines rather they can be used in the hot or cold packs. The enthalpy of dissolution is the measurement of energy released or absorbed when a solute dissolves in a solvent. In this case the measurement of energy released or absorbed when the salt dissolves in the water.…
