Fundamentals of Industrial Instrumentation and Process Control

| 1. | Convert the following temperatures to Fahrenheit: 115 C, 456 K, and 423 R. |
|
| 2. | Convert the following temperatures to Rankine: -13 C, 645 K, and -123 F. |
|
| 3. | Convert the following temperatures to Centigrade: 115 F, 356 K, and 533 R. |
|
| 4. | Convert the following temperatures to Kelvin: -215 C, -56 F, and 436 R. |
|
| 5. | How many calories of energy are required to raise the temperature of 3 ft 3 of water 15 F? |
|
| 6. | A 15-lb block of brass with a specific heat of 0.089 is heated to 189 F and then immersed in 5 gal of water at 66 F. What is the final temperature of the brass and water? Assume there is no heat loss. |
|
| 7. | A 4.3-lb copper block is heated by passing a direct current through it. If the voltage across the copper is 50 V and the current is 13.5 A, what will be the increase in the temperature of the copper after 17 min? Assume there is no heat loss. |
|
| 8. | A 129 kg lead block is heated to 176 C from 19 C, how many calories are required? |
|
| 9. | One end of a 9-in long 7-in diameter copper bar is heated to 59.4 F, the far end of the bar is held at 23 C. If the sides of the bar are covered with thermal insulation, what is the rate of heat transfer? |
|
| 10. | On a winter's day the outside temperature of a 17-in thick concrete wall is -29 F, the wall is 15 ft long and 9 ft high. |
