Fluid Kinematics

The branch of science that deals with objects which are either in motion or stationary are studied under the branch of classical mechanics. Fluid mechanics is a subcategory of classical mechanics that deals with the behavior of fluids at rest (fluid stat…

Consider a room house that has a base of 10 m × 20 m and a wall 3 m high. The four walls of the house have an R value of 2.31 m2C/W. The two walls of 10 m × 3 m have no windows. The remaining two walls have six clear glass windows 0.6 cm thick, 1.2 m × 1.8 m each. The roof of the house consists of a 15 cm thick concrete slat whose emission, both on the interior and on the exterior surface, is estimated at 0.9. Heat gains or losses from radiation through windows and walls are negligible. For windows it is recommended to use the thermal properties, U value, reported by glass manufacturers. The heat transfer coefficients on the interior and exterior surfaces of the walls and the ceiling must be estimated using the correlations according to the corresponding conditions and configurations. On a clear winter night, it is reported that the ambient air is at 5 C, while the effective temperature of the sky is estimated at 100 K. It is desired to maintain a comfort temperature inside the house…

A single degree damped vibrating system is formed of a block of mass m = 7 kg, a spring of K = 100 N/m and a damper of damping constant C. The initial position of the block is at x = 100 mm. The system was initially at rest. The figure below represents the variation of the displacement of the block with respect to time. Determine the response of at t = 1s for x₁ = 10 mm. Хо X1 0 t 3
