Abstract Enhancing the heat transfer is one of the techniques to increase the performance of the heat exchanger system. Among the enhancement methods, passive techniques attract the researchers due to its lower power requirement. Literatures particularly indicate that insertion of tape is the economical method to enhance the heat transfer rate. Here, the heat transfer from circular cross section tube fitted with pierced twisted tape and

The influence of using the pierced twisted tape and wire coil on heat transfer is significant for all Reynolds number. With increase in twist ratio the performance factor decreases. With increase in coil pitch ratio the thermal performance decreases.
4. CONCLUSION Studies on the heat transfer characteristics in a circular tube fitted with pierced twisted tape and wire coil for various twist ratio has been done experimentally. The results indicate that the nusselt number increases with decrease in the twist ratio. The thermal performance factor is more than 1.44 while using the pierced twisted tape with lower twist ratio and lower wire coil ratio.

In the first part of the experiment, Part A, the standard solutions were prepared. As a whole, the experiment was conducted by four people, however, for Part A, the group was split in two to prepare the two different solutions. Calibrations curves were created for the standard solutions of both Red 40 and Blue 1. Each solution was treated with a serial 2-fold dilution to gain different concentrations of each solution.
Determination of the Heat Exchanged in Chemical Reactions Introduction: Calorimetry is the science of determining heat and energy exchange in various situations and reactions. It is used for many things everyday including solid and liquid fuel testing, waste disposal, and explosive testing. In our lab, we will are applying calorimetry to determine the change in enthalpy of a weak acid-strong base reaction. My beginning question was: How can we apply Hess’ law and calorimetry to chemical equations to determine the heat exchanged in a reaction?
However the Steel Wool on the table and graph show different results. This is because the initial temperature of the water inside the can was affected with by some errors. The worst insulator out of the three materials would be the Bubble Wrap because it did not keep its heat during the time intervals. Bubble wrap was not a good insulator because it had so many cold spots, the bubbles popped and the places between the bubbles, where heat readily
In the generations of the immigrant labor of a Slovak family, the Dorejacks demonstrates the tough labor in America. In the novel “Out This Furnace” a captivating, non-fiction story, Thomas Bell suggests that immigrant labor in the early days was tough and factors like labor inequality, the relationship between companies and politics, and essential money shaped immigrants freedom. In the mid-1800’s George Kracha fled his country, Austria, under the ruler of Frank Josef, because of the lack of money and employment, Kracha couldn’t sustain his wife and mother (p.3). Moreover, Kracha’s story began when he arrived in New York to White Hill, he then migrates to several other cities but still in America.
The diction of fire in Fahrenheit is pretty confusing because it's not just one word. There’s multiple words to describe fire that may even seem shocking because of the ways it’s presented. In this analysis, you’ll find that Ray Bradbury is taking fire to a whole other level. He’s not just describing the physical appearance, but also the literal sense of fire. By the end, Bradbury’s message will be clear.
Is it possible to find the specific heat of a metal by experimenting and by using the SMΔT formula? Background Information: The experiment deals with finding the different factors in the formula SMΔT to find the specific heat of the metal, which is iron in this case. ΔH=SMΔT, which means that the change in heat equals the specific heat times the mass times the change in temperature. There are many new concepts that are necessary to know for this formula, such as specific heat, mass and how to find the change in temperature. To begin with specific heat is the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1℃.
The capillary tube was conjoined with a thermometer and heated. Once all of the alum disappeared from the capillary tube we recorded the temperature. On our first trial we recorded 100℃ Our second trial measured at 96C. The alum has a literature melting point at 92.5℃ so our results were in a fair range to assume our results were correct.
Introduction The intent of this experiment is to understand how hot and cold water interact with each other by combining clear hot water and black ice cold water. I hope to learn more about how hot and cold water interact with each other. As of now, I know that cold water is denser than hot water. Knowing this I formed my hypothesis.
One factor that would make it difficult to observe from a city like Tempe is the city lights; light pollution are common in cities which makes observing difficult. For a better observing, we need a dark sky so that more star or objects in the sky are visible. Secondly, on mountain top above dust and water vator also makes observing better: we are closer to the sky and far away any conditions that would negatively affect our view. Finally good weaher and lots of clear nights also positevly affects
Rachel 's hand immediately moved away from the hot burner due to an automatic reflex and this prevented her from burning herself. The skin receptors in her hand was stimulated and then nerve impulse were sent to the central nervous system through the sensory neurons this is where the brain coordinates the response but not always this is known as the reflex action and in Rachel 's case her hand instantly moved from the hot burner without to much thinking.(Bbc.co.uk, 2017) In this type of automatic reflex actions are overseen by combination of neurons called the reflex arcs. In the spinal cord, the nerve impulses move from the sensory neurons to the interneurons and signals are then sent to the motor neurons which project out the spinal cord to stimulate the effector to contract like instantly moving your hand away from the hot burner this is known as the reflex arc (Owlcation, 2015).The reflex in which the hand immediately moves away from the stove is known as the polysynaptic reflex, this is a spinal reflex which is intended to protect the body from damaging the stimuli leading to stimulation of sensory and motor neurons. {(Boundless, 2017).
Synopsis This laboratory report gives an outline of the experiment which was carried out in order to measure the density of water at different temperatures via two different methods. The lab consisted of two parts. In the first part the density of water was measured by hydrometer. At first the density of water at room temperature was measured.
In “Prayer in the Furnace,” Phil Klay demonstrates the cruelty of war times, and the severe consequences it has on its Marines. The war is so appalling that it leaves the Marines barely able to sleep due to nightmares, they have thoughts of suicide, and they are hardly alive due to the substandard state of their health. Rodriguez, a Marine, talks to a chaplain about the issues that he has. He “pulled a plastic sandwich bag full of little pills out of his cargo pockets and held it at eye level. ‘How do you think any of us sleep?’”
The observed emission data for the different elements did not look how they were supposed to. However the “peaks” for Hydrogen were found to be 534.52 and 631.24, 534.70 and 569.11 for Helium and 529.73 and 630.71 for Mercury. The Rydberg’s Constant found to 1.1x107 8.5x104 while the known constant is 10967758.34m-1. The percent error of 0.29% and the accuracy of this reading is 99.7. The slope and intercept of the linear regression line is -0.01 3.3x10-5 and 0.02x10-1 1.9x10-6 respectfully.
Heat stress is a condition in which the increase in core body temperature overwhelms the body’s homeostatic thermoregulation abilities, thus producing and absorbing more heat than the body could dissipate [1]. This results in a wide spectrum of heat-related illnesses, ranging from minor conditions such as heat cramps and heat exhaustion to the more severe condition known as heat stroke. Heat stroke is defined as a core body temperature of beyond 40.60C, commonly associated with the dysfunction of the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the failure of multiple organ systems, which may ultimately result in disability or death. [2] Heat stress can be categorized into two different entities: classical and exertional. Classical or environmental heat
