- Problem 4 Consider the simple diffusion equation with a source term: ft-Dfxx = kf Use the central-space, forward-time difference method to: a) Drive the modified equation and determine the accuracy and consistency of this scheme. b) Find the stability condition (or conditions) for this scheme by von Neumann's method. LIarrow_forwardThe amount of heat conducted through a wall of length r is given by Fourier's Law:. CONDUCTION RATE EQUATION T FOURIER'S LAW q, = -k A dT dx T, >T, where q, is the heat flux, k is a proportionality factor, Ais the wall's cross-sectional area, and 4 is the temperature gradient throughout the wall. Our friend Matt Labb wants to find T2 (temperature of the wall's rightmost edge) given q,, k, and A. Is this possible? If so, briefly explain how to find Tp. If not, briefly explain why.arrow_forwardGeochemical Box Models - please use same terminology found in question Consider an element X exchanging between two geochemical reservoirs A and B. Let MA and MB be the masses of X in reservoirs A and B, respectively; let tA and tB be the residence times of X in reservoirs A and B, respectively. Further let M = MA + MB be the total mass of X in the two reservoirs combined. Consider a situation where additional mass M' is injected into reservoir A at time t=0 increasing the total amount of element X in the system from M0 to M1, with no further injection at later times; further assume that tA >> tB, that the total mass in the altered system is M1 = M0 + M', and that M0 << M'. Give an expression for MB(t) as a function of M1, tA, tB, and t. What is the characteristic time for MB to approach steady state? What is the characteristic time for MA to approach steady state?arrow_forward

- Please show with steps principle of superpositionarrow_forwardThe Helmholtz free energy of a liquid column that rises, due to surface tension, inside a capillary tube (Figure 1), as a function of the height, h, is given by: F(h) =(ro)gr^2h^2/2 = -2 pi sigma r h cos teta, where r is the radius of the tube, g is the local ac- celaration of gravity, is the surface tension of the liquid, and is the contact angle of the liquid in contact with the wall of the tube. (a) From this expression, obtain the value of h as a function of the other physical parameters at equilibrium.Calculate the height that water will rise in a capil-lary of diameter 0.05mm. Assume that the contactangle between the water and the tube is zero. Thesurface tension of water at experimental conditionsisσ= 7.73×10−2N/m, and the local accelarationof gravity isg= 9.7m/s2.arrow_forwardI1 Give an example how it is applied in molecular dynamics simulation and Monte carlo simulation? Typical distributions of particles in a volume (e.g. crystal structure for a solid, or distribution of masses and velocities in a “typical” galaxy) - Distributions of particle velocities/energies (e.g. Boltzmann distribution at a fixed temperature) - E.g. for a liquid it is common to start with a solid crystal structure and let the structure “melt” (by setting appropriate velocities corresponding to the liquid phase temperature!) - E.g. to setup a collision of two galaxies, you could try to generate a stable distribution of masses and velocities for a single galaxy first by performing a separate simulation -E.g. A simple model of a phase transition between a low temperature ordered phase (ferromagnet) and high temperature disordered phase (paramagnet) whats the difference in phase space in Molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation?arrow_forward

[Ans. 1/r dldr(rdTldr) + ġ" Ik = 0].arrow_forwardSurface tension is due to uneven molecular attraction between immiscible fluid media and solid surface. Its importance is governed by dimensionless parameter Which of the Inertia force called Weber number given by We = Surface tension force™ following statements are correct? (i) Surface tension becomes important when the length scale L is small such as in ink jet printing, coating of thin film, oxygenation of water by falling rain drops. (ii) 111 Super-hydrophobicity can be achieved by micro/nano texturing of surface such as in lotus leave, butterfly and dragonfly wing. During oil spill in ocean, oil floats and spreads out due to gravity. By conservation of mass, the oil film becomes thinner as it spreads. Finally, the surface tension force becomes important causing the formation of tiny oil droplets. (A) (B) (C) (D) (i) and (ii) (i) and (iii) (ii) and (iii) All of the abovearrow_forward(6) A dimensionless group called the Reynolds number is defined for a flow in a pipe or tube DV p NRe %3D uV/D Where V is the average velocity in the pipe, p is the fluid density, u is the fluid viscosity, D is the tube diameter. The second form of the group indicates that it is a ratio of the convective (turbulent) momentum flux to the molecular (viscous) momentum flux, or the ratio of inertial forces (which are destabilizing) to viscous forces (which are stabilizing). When viscous forces dominate over inertial forces, the flow is laminar and fluid elements flow in smooth, straight streamlines, whereas when inertial forces dominate, the flow is unstable and the flow pattern break up into random fluctuating eddies It is found that laminar flow in a pipe occurs as long as the value of Reynolds number is less than 2000. Calculate the maximum velocity and the corresponding flow rate (in cm'/s) at which lamina: tlow of water is possible in tubes with the following diameters: 0.64, 1.27,…arrow_forward
