The mass flow rate in a 4.0-m wide, 2.0-m deep channel is 4000 kg/s of water. if the velocity distribution in the channel is linear with depth what is the surface velocity of flow in the channel?

The thermal expansion or contraction of a given metal is a function of the f a)-density b)-initial temperature c)- temperature difference d)- linear coefficient of thermal expansion e)- final temperature f)- original length

Along 8-cm diameter steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 900c connects two buildings. the pipe is exposed to ambient air at 70c with a wind speed of 50 km/hr blowing across the pipe. determine the heat loss from the pipe per unit length. (b) air at 500c enters a section of a rectangular duct (15 cm x 20 cm) at an average velocity of 7 m/s. if the walls of the duct are maintained at 100c. a) the length of the tube for an exit temperature of the air to be 40 0c. b)the rate of heat transfer from the air. c) the fan power needed to overcome the pressure drop in this section of the duct.

In the winter, in order to keep the classroom steadily at 68 f before 10 pm, heating with an average rate of 42,000 btu/hr is provided. assume the outdoor temperature maintains at 32°f, determine the electrical power (kw) required to (a) operate a reversible heat pump (b) operate a real heat pump with a cop (7) of 4.5 and (c) operate an electrical-resistance heater.
