Air enters a heating section at 95 kpa, 12°c, and 30 percent relative humidity at a rate of 16 m3 /min, and it leaves at 25°c. determine (a) the rate of heat transfer in the heating section and (b) the relative humidity of the air at the exit.

Explain the difference laminar and turbulent flow. explain it with the shear stress and the velocity profiles.

Apiston-cylinder with a volume of 0.25 m3 holds 1 kg of air (r 0.287 k/kgk) at a temperature of 100 c. heat transfer to the cylinder causes an isothermal expansion of the piston until the volume triples. how much heat is added to the piston-cylinder?

Awall of 0.5m thickness is to be constructed from a material which has average thermal conductivity of 1.4 w/mk. the wall is to be insulated with a material having an average thermal conductivity of 0.35 w/mk so that heat loss per square meter shall not exceed 1450 w. assume inner wall surface temperature of 1200°c and outer surface temperature of the insulation to be 15°c. calculate the thickness of insulation required.
