3. This problem will help you understand why the wind blowing makes you feel colder, especially in the winter. You are outside on a cold day. The air temperature overall is around 5° C; assume your skin temperature is 16° C a) If you stay outside for a while and there is no wind, the air around you will eventually increase in temperature past 5° C. Explain why the air heats up, using the idea of conduction. b) What is the highest temperature the air around you can reach? Explain. c) As the air around you warms up, explain why you start cooling down more slowly. d) If the wind blows, convection happens: the warm air around your body is blown away, replaced by more 5° C cold air. In this case, will you cool down more quickly or more slowly? Explain.

In a concentrated solar power plant, molten salt tank is used to store the thermal energy from the sun during the day. The tank wall thickness is 3cm containing molten salt at a temperature of 390 degree Celsius. There is atmospheric air outside the tank at a temperature of 30 degree Celsius. Suppose heat is lost as a result of heat transfer from the molten salt to the atmospheric air. What is the mode of heat transfer in this condition? conduction then convection convection then conduction convection then conduction then convection conduction then convection then conduction
1.)An aluminum tank with a volume of 1000 liters is filled with gasoline. Both are at a temperature of 12°C. The tank is transported to a place where the temperature is 37° and, due to the difference between the volumetric expansion coefficients of the metal and the liquid, the ebb of the tank. Assuming the tank expands like a massive volume of aluminum, how many liters of gasoline overflow from the tank? Data: βaluminum=7*10-5/ºC and βgas=9.5*10-4/ºC
Consider that the tropical ocean is exposed to direct sunlight for many hours every day. If the top 1cm of an area of water 10,000,000 cm by 10,000,000 cm warms from 25 to 27 degrees, how much heat energy, in Joules, has the water absorbed? (Every cm' of water has one gram of mass.) Remember the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C
8) Consider two liquids, A and B. with temperatures Te > TA. The two objects are put into thermal contact for a time period. Without just saying 'heat flows from hot to cold' how would you prove to someone that a quantity of heat flowed from B to Á. (think of James Joule's experiments) 9) If the temperature of the sun were to suddenly double, by what multiplicative factor would the thermal radiation change ? Show Work

XYZ Company Ltd has consulted your firm Zig-Zag Energy over an intention to generate electricity in Ghana. Being the senior project engineer for Zig-Zag Energy, management has asked you to prepare a detailed technical report in respect to the project. a) Discuss the major factors to take into consideration when consulting on such projects. A tank containing air is stirred by a paddle wheel. The work input to the paddle wheels is 2000KJ and the heat transferred to the surrounding from the tank is 6000KJ. b) Determine the change in the internal energy of the system There has been a sharp differences between the board of Blue-Blue Energy over which of the energy sources (hydroelectric power plant-HEP and Coal fired plant) is best for power generation. As an energy expert, you were confronted by the debating faction for your opinion. You…
Wind power is defined as the use of air flow through wind turbines to provide the mechanical force to generate electricity. Wind power is an alternative to burning fossil fuels, and is renewable and produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation. Modern horizontal-axis wind turbines often use three blades. Theoretically, the maximum power P (unit: watts) that a three-blade wind turbine can extract from the wind power can be calculated as: P = pAv³C₁. . (Equation 1) where p is the air density (kg/m³), A is the sweep area of the turbine (m²) and can be calculated from the length of the turbine blades, and v is the wind speed (m/s). Cp is the power coefficient that is unique to each turbine type. This coefficient represents the amount of kinetic energy from the wind that is captured by the turbine. From the Betz's limit law we know that the best power conversion possible is Cp,max = 0.59. Part 1 Given the following data: Blade length /= 50 m Air density p= 1.5 kg/m³ Power…
Which two of the following are best correct statements for the wall with the temperature distribution shown below: A) The heat flux would be constant at any location in the wall B) It is unclear if heat is being generated within the wall C) Heat does not flow across the centerline D) Everywhere inside the wall, heat flows only to the right( same direction as the x-direction E) If the convection outside the wall is occuring with a normal magnitude of h, then it can be expected that Ts >> Tinfinity
Q1: If a calorimeter is not assumed to be adiabatic, how would one calculate the heat transfer? Guide Questions: What are the parameters to be considered and the equations to be used? What law of thermodynamics does this transfer of heat to the surroundings touch? Is an adiabatic system automatically considered as a closed system? Please help me understand by also attaching a reference/book/journal article. This would help me in my essay. Thank you.

Question 4: A person informs an engineer that he frequently feels cooler in the summer when standing in front of an open refrigerator. The engineer tells him that he is only “imagining things” because there is no fan in the refrigerator to blow the cool air over him. A lively argument ensues. Whose side of the argument do you take? Why?
