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?

What does it mean for an engineering device that has steady-flow? (choose 3 answers) 1- it has been operating for a long time. 2- the properties do not change with time. 3- the property values can be different at different location in the device. 4- the total energy content in the control volume remains unchanged. 5- the rate of energy coming into the system equals to the rate of energy exits the system.
A 3.0-inch wall of fire brick, k = 8.0 Btu/ (ft)(hr) (CF/ in) has one surface at 335°F, the other at 80°F. Find the heat conducted through an area of 1.4 ft? in one day.
Air treated as an ideal gas and having a specific heat at constant volume Cv=1200 j/kg.K undergoes a process. During this process, heat is observed to exit the system with an amount of 10 kJ while work is provided to the system with an amount of 23 kJ. If the initial temperature of air was 20 C, what is the final temperature of air if the mass of air undergoing the process is 0.3 Kg. Select one: O a. 59.5 C O b. 48.73 C O c. 63.4 C O d. 56.1 C

Consider a flask, as shown in Figure Q1. The flask wall is designed with an air layer sealed between the inner container and the outer case. The inner container has a diameter of 8.5 cm, and the case has a diameter of 9.5 cm. The flask is 17 cm tall and the outer case is made of a very thin steel material. The cap and base of the flask are well insulated. a) During a steady-state condition, the ambient air temperature is 20°C with the convection heat transfer coefficient, ho of 4 W/m².K. Consider a uniform water temperature Twater of 95 °C with the inner container surface at the same temperature as the water temperature at any time. If the convection and the radiation heat transfer to be negligible within the air layer, obtain the temperature variation in the flask wall by using the heat conduction equation. b) Determine the outer case temperature (°C) and the rate of heat loss (kW) from the flask. c) If the air layer of the flask is replaced with a vacuum layer, will the rate of heat…
An open system is often referred to as control volume, which is a properly selected region in space in which mass and energy can flow across the boundaries as figure 1.2. The boundary of a open thermodynamic system is called the control surface Across the Boundaries E = Yes F 0 = Yes w =Yes Control surface ass YES W CONTROL VOLUME energy YES Figure 1.2. A cooling/heating radiator is an example of such a system – give two more examples of such a system.
Latent heat of fusion is the heat given up as a substance freezes. The latentheat of fusion for water is 144 British thermal units per pound (Btu/lb). Thismeans that 144 Btu are given up for each pound of water that freezes. Howmany British thermal units of heat are given up when 4,000 pounds of waterfreeze?
