Q

desuperheating

A

sensible heat is removed from a vapour or gas while it remains at its saturation or boiling pressure

17
Q

Threshold limit value (TLV)

A

The refrigerant concentration in air for a normal 8 hr workday and a 40 hr workweek to which nearly all workers may be repeatedly exposed, day-after-day, without adverse effect

18
Q

1 ton of refrigeration ==

A

288,000 Btu/24hrs
12,000 Btu/hr
200 Btu/min

19
Q

Sensible heat

A

heat we can sense by touch

20
Q

Specific heat

A

the amount of heat required to change 1lb of a substance by 1F

21
Q

Heat is

A

energy in the form of molecular motion

22
Q

subcooling types

A
  1. an increase in the subcooling of liquid refrigerant results in a decrease of sensible heat in the refrigerant
  2. a decrease in sensible heat results in a decrease in the amount of heat contained by the refrigerant
  3. a decrease in heat results in an increased capacity in the cooling section
23
Q

The greater the temp difference between two objects,

A

the faster heat transfers

24
Q

Conduction

25
Convection
liquid or gas
26
Radiation
purely gas
27
Thermodynamics
study of changing heat energy into mechanical energy and mechanical energy into heat energy
28
The first law of thermodynamics states
energy cannot be created or destroyed
29
The second law of thermodynamics states
heat energy moves from a zone of high heat to a zone of low heat high heat -> low heat
30
liquid water (specific heat value) ice (specific heat value) steam (specific heat value)
1.00 btu/lb/F 0.5 0.46
31
Sensible heat
a gain or loss of heat that is indicated by a rise or fall in temp
32
Latent heat
a gain or loss of heat that does not register a temp change
33
Total heat
the sum of latent heat and sensible heat
34
Q =
m x c x T Q = Quantity of Heat m = mass c = specific heat T = temperature difference
35
Temperature
the average amount of molecular motion in a substance
