5.3. Ventilation: No matter the courtyard is small or big in these two buildings, the ventilation still has very small values, due to the closing massive walls towards the outside and opening towards the inside in the origin design, and the semi-closed windows later during the operation. Both buildings need an increase of ventilation ranging between 0.06-0.1 m/s comparing with 0.15 m/s of ANSI/ASHRAE Standard for occupant comfort (ANSI/ASHRAE 1992), taking into account the consideration of…
There are two ways to get a real tan - you can do outdoors in the sun, or you can do inside of a tanning booth at a salon. Each method of tanning has its benefits and weaknesses: Indoor Tanning -It allows you to control the amount of time you spend in the sun, ideally to reduce burning. It also allows you to tan during winter when it is too cold to do outdoors. Tanning booths however can be more dangerous, especially when they are used too often. Outdoor Tanning - It is arguably more enjoyable.…
Evaporation Model, Kohler modification and Surface Phenomena The process of microdroplet evaporation is associated with the mass and heat transport through the microdroplet surface [1,2] . [2]: [ 1] Where a is the droplet radius, Pa and Pcc are the saturated vapor pressures near the droplet surface and far from the droplet respectively. Ta and Tcc are the temperatures at the microdroplet surface and the reservoir. D is the diffusion constant of vapor in the ambient gas. M and are the…

A tossed pebble provides the energy to generate a traveling wave. http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/Sound/tralon.html Electromagnetic waves “A transverse wave that involves the transfer of electric and magnetic energy (Don Buckley, 2011)” they are made of vibrating magnetic and electric fields that move through a medium or space at the speed of light. B. SOUND “Sound is a disturbance that travels through a medium as a…
flux is known, the equation then becomes q_x "=q_x/A=-k dT/dx This is the Fourier’s law of heat conduction equation which states that the heat transfer rate in the x-direction is proportional to the negative gradient in the temperature and to the area (Bergman, Bergman, Lavine, Incropera, & DeWitt, 2007). The minus sign in the equation refers to the transfer of heat in the direction of decreasing temperature. The constant of proportionality k is the thermal conductivity and the dT/dx term is…
The three objectives of this experiment were to determine the experimental and theoretical overall heat transfer coefficient, the effects of insulation, and the number of fouled tubes in the shell and tube heat exchanger. The flow rates of the hot water supply to the tubes and the cold water supply to the shell were varied, and temperatures for the hot inlet, hot outlet, cold inlet, and cold outlet streams were recorded. These temperatures were recorded for each of the three experimental…
Outcome 3 explores what it takes for a writer to produce complex, analytical, persuasive arguments that contribute to the conversation of existing research and matter in academic contexts. It is important for a writer, when developing a complex and analytical claim, to implement the stakes of the argument, and why the argument matters to their field of research. If the argument has no purpose, then the writers desired audience have no reason to read it. It is also vital for the writer to…
Analysis and optimisation of heat transfer rate in rectangular fins with through holes Chinmay P Patil (Author) B.E Student, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, LTCoE, Koparkhairane. Abstract—The most important factor in any heatsink is to dissipate heat as quickly as possible. This is due to the fact that these heatsinks are used usually on electronic circuits which can’t not withstand extreme temperatures and can endure damages. Thus to prevent such a damage design of proper heat sink is…
in such models is limited in the literature. Amiri et al.[20] conducted numerical experiments on double diffusive convection in a lid driven cavity with its bottom wall kept hot and salted . They observed higher heat transfer rate at low Richardson number while higher mass transfer rates at higher Lewis number. Senthil kumar et al.[21] has attempted a study on double diffusive convection in lid driven cavity model with differentially heated and salted horizontal boundaries. They presented the…
II. Energy balance model The methodology adopted has been used to predict the heating and cooling requirements of different buildings. Energy needs, expressed in Kilowatt-hour (kWh) are given commonly by equation 1: (01) In the heating season, equation 1 is simplified as follows: (02) In the cooling season, equation 1 is transformed into the following form: (03) During inter-seasons periods, if the heat generated by energy sources (lights, occupants and their activities) is higher than the…
