Q

Heat Transfer always acts ______________________________
Rate of heat transfer increases ________________________________

A

Heat Transfer always acts from a higher temperature to a lower temperature
Rate of heat transfer increases as temperature difference increases (Heat gradient)

Q

Explain what is being measured at each of these pentometers

A

Left - Static Pressure - Pressure exerted by parts of the fluid that are stagnant or a constant velocity (Pressure of static fluid compared to atmospheric pressure)

Middle - Total Pressure - Pressure exerted by the dynamic parts of the fluid coming to a stop (pressure of dynamic fluid compared to atmospheric pressure)

Right - Dynamic Pressure - Pressure exerted by the by the dynamics parts of the fluid (pressure of dynamic fluid compared to static pressure, takes into account the kinetic energy of the particles

Q

What does the wind speed need to be in the wind tunnel to achieve dynamic similarity

Explain at potential problem with the model

A

Wind speed is approaching half the speed of sound
Compressibility or the air will be different at this speed, resulting in different air behaviour
