what are the instruments/materials used by scientist to study Thermoclines under water.
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?
Water enters a boiler at 20 degrees Celsius [°C]. The boiler operates for 5 minutes [min] to heat 25 gallons [gal] of water. The boiler requires an input power of 15.5 kilowatts [kW] and is 85% efficient. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 kilojoules per kilogram kelvin [kJ /(kg K)]. What is the temperature of the water in degrees Celsius [°C] as it exits the boiler?

Project 4: Pipe lagging is an insulation fitted around pipes to maintain energy loss at minimum and prevent any freezing or bursting. Your part in the HTU thermodynamics and heat transfer lab is to conduct an experiment to explore the heat losses that would occur in both lagged and unlagged hot water pipe. The required tools and main apparatus are shown in Figure.4 and general schematic is shown in Fugure.5. Figure.1, shows the pump for providing running the cycle, thermocouple for measuring the temperature and the pipe coil. Your lab instructor asked you to perform the following tasks: • Fit the lagging around the pipe • Connect the pump to inlet of coil • Measure the hot water terampere at the inlet (make sure the temperature reaches its steady state before measuring it) • Operate the cycle by turn on the pump • Measure the cold water terampere at the outlet in steady state. • Repeat the previous step with unlagged pipe • Search for an appropriate video where a test to measure the…
