A thermal energy storage unit consists of a large rectangular channel, which is well insulated on its outer surface and encloses

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

the temperature of the aluminum at this time is 456.25° C

Explanation:

Given that:

width w of the aluminium slab = 0.05 m

the initial temperature $T_1$ = 25° C

$T{\infty} =600^0C$

h = 100 W/m²

The properties of Aluminium at temperature of 600° C by considering the conditions for which the storage unit is charged; we have ;

density ρ = 2702 kg/m³

thermal conductivity k = 231 W/m.K

Specific heat c = 1033 J/Kg.K

Let's first find the Biot Number Bi which can be expressed by the equation:

$Bi = \dfrac{hL_c}{k} \\ \\ Bi = \dfrac{h \dfrac{w}{2}}{k}$

$Bi = \dfrac{hL_c}{k} \\ \\ Bi = \dfrac{100 \times \dfrac{0.05}{2}}{231}$

$Bi = \dfrac{2.5}{231}$

Bi = 0.0108

The time constant value $\tau_t$ is :

$\tau_t = \dfrac{pL_cc}{h} \\ \\ \tau_t = \dfrac{p \dfrac{w}{2}c}{h}$

$\tau_t = \dfrac{2702* \dfrac{0.05}{2}*1033}{100}$

$\tau_t = \dfrac{2702* 0.025*1033}{100}$

$\tau_t = 697.79$

Considering Lumped capacitance analysis since value for Bi is less than 1

Then;

$Q= (pVc)\theta_1 [1-e^{\dfrac {-t}{ \tau_1}}]$

where;

$Q = -\Delta E _{st}$ which correlates with the change in the internal energy of the solid.

So;

$Q= (pVc)\theta_1 [1-e^{\dfrac {-t}{ \tau_1}}]= -\Delta E _{st}$

The maximum value for the change in the internal energy of the solid is :

$(pVc)\theta_1 = -\Delta E _{st}max$

By equating the two previous equation together ; we have:

$\dfrac{-\Delta E _{st}}{\Delta E _{st}{max}}= \dfrac{ (pVc)\theta_1 [1-e^{\dfrac {-t}{ \tau_1}}]} { (pVc)\theta_1}$

Similarly; we need to understand that the ratio of the energy storage to the maximum possible energy storage = 0.75

Thus;

$0.75= [1-e^{\dfrac {-t}{ \tau_1}}]}$

So;

$0.75= [1-e^{\dfrac {-t}{ 697.79}}]}$

$1-0.75= [e^{\dfrac {-t}{ 697.79}}]}$

$0.25 = e^{\dfrac {-t}{ 697.79}}$

$In(0.25) = {\dfrac {-t}{ 697.79}}$

$-1.386294361= \dfrac{-t}{697.79}$

t = 1.386294361 × 697.79

t = 967.34 s

Finally; the temperature of Aluminium is determined as follows;

$\dfrac{T - T _{\infty}}{T_1-T_{\infty}}= e ^ {\dfrac{-t}{\tau_t}}$

$\dfrac{T - 600}{25-600}= e ^ {\dfrac{-967.34}{697.79}$

$\dfrac{T - 600}{25-600}= 0.25$

$\dfrac{T - 600}{-575}= 0.25$

T - 600 = -575 × 0.25

T - 600 = -143.75

T = -143.75 + 600

T = 456.25° C

Hence; the temperature of the aluminum at this time is 456.25° C

A dielectric material, such as Teflon®, is placed between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor without altering the structur

Lina20 [59]

Answer: The electric field decreases because of the insertion of the Teflon.

Explanation:

If the charge on the capacitor is held fixed, the electric field as a consequence of this charge distribution (directed from the positive charged plate to the negative charged one remains unchanged.

However, as the Teflon is a dielectric material, even though doesn't allow the free movement of the electrons as an answer to an applied electric field, it allows that the electrons be displaced from the equilibrium position, leaving a local negative-charged zone close to the posiitive plate of the capacitor, and an equal but opposite charged layer close to the negative plate.

In this way, a internal electric field is created, that opposes to the external one due to the capacitor, which overall effect is diminishing the total electric field, reducing the voltage between the plates, and increasing the capacitance proportionally to the dielectric constant of the Teflon.
