is negligible. Numerical analysis technique the numerical analysis is performed by combining the governing equations related to the conservation of energy, conservation of mass and conservation of electrical charge to examine fluid distributions, heat transfers, mass transfers and electrochemical reactions. The assumptions used in developing the model are as follow: 1) Ideal gas law was employed for gaseous species. 2) The fluid flow in the fuel cell was laminar due to the low flow…

1.1 Power Flow Theory Power, as we know, consists of two components, active and reactive power. The total sum of active and reactive power is called as apparent power. 1.1.1 Active Power “Power is a measure of energy per unit time. Power therefore gives the rate of energy consumption or production. The units for power are generally watts (W). For example, the watt rating of an appliance gives the rate at which it uses energy. The total amount of energy consumed by this appliance is the wattage…

8.1 Cooking definition: • Cooking is an art of application of heat to prepare food. • The objective of cooking is to bring chemical and physical change in food to make it a complete dish. • Cooking makes the food easier to digest, makes the food eatable, improves foods flavor, makes eye appealing, creates an appetite, kills harmful bacteria etc. 8.2 Methods of cooking: Moist / Wet Media: 1- Boiling: • In this cooking method, food items are totally submerged in hot water and cooked at 100…

oC as shown in Table 12. In a solar process heat system, interfacing of the collectors with conventional energy supplies must be done in a way compatible with the process. The easiest way to make this is by using heat storage, which can also allow the system to work in periods of low irradiation. Table 12: Process temperatures in Textile industry. (Source: Kalogirou (2002)) At the Kombolcha Textile Share Company exists a central system for heat supply that uses steam at a pressure…

The thermal conductivity is depend upon porosity when the porosity increase thermal conductivity is gradually decrease due to that water and air are less conductive as compare to minerals, and on the other hand heat capacity increase with higher water content. During the installation of heat exchanger soil loss it structure due to drilling then the thermal conductivity is determined by mineral contain. The porosity of soil varies from place to place some kind of soil having less porosity but on…

Chemical thermodynamics is the study of the interrelation of heat and work with chemical reactions or with physical changes of state within the confines of the laws of thermodynamics. It involves not only laboratory measurements of various thermodynamic properties, but also the application of mathematical methods to the study of chemical questions and the spontaneity of processes. The structure of chemical thermodynamics is based on the first two laws of thermodynamics. Starting from the first…

first conducted trial. The linear trendline was created for the last three data points, where the water was allowed to cool, which was then extrapolated backwards to account for the total decrease in the temperature of the water due to a loss of heat energy to the surrounding environment. The difference between the highest and lowest temperature values will then be used to calculate the total change in…

THE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY OF WATER AND METAL INTRODUCTION. When the same amount of heat is transferred to two different objects, there is an increase in internal energy by the same amount but this does not necessarily cause a rise in temperature (Hudson, ND). The effect of heat transfer on temperature depends on the amount of heat energy transferred, the mass of the object and the specific heat capacity of the material of which the material involved is made (Hudson, ND).…

Much has been made recently of the DIY foam roofing options that can be incorporated in your homes. Insulation is important to help keep away too much heat and cold outside temperatures inside the house. The great advantage to using foam roofing is the ease of installation. Since it is relatively easy to do, many can attempt do it on their own. This is one of the reasons why it has become popular. Insulation is necessary to protect the roof from weather getting into the cracks of the wood…

red band, where no light was able to be seen. Due to the position, it forms infrared radiation. This type of radiation is would be called,” heat wave.” Instead, it called misnomer. Say if the heat is the transfer of the internal energy from one region to another region. Then all forms of the electromagnetic radiation transfer internal energy are called,” heat waves.” Thermal radiation is produced by a heated surface in all directions and moves directly to its point of absorption at the speed of…
