What causes thermal energy transfer?

What causes thermal energy transfer? Thermal energy is transferred from hot places to cold places by convection. As the hot air above a radiator rises it pushes cooler air away from it. The cooler air eventually circulates back round to the radiator where it gets heated and the cycle continues. What is boundary condition in […]

What controls the direction of motion of actuator?

What controls the direction of motion of actuator? In simple terms, it is a “mover”. An actuator requires a control signal and a source of energy. The control signal is relatively low energy and may be electric voltage or current, pneumatic, or hydraulic fluid pressure, or even human power. Which of the following components are […]

What is the rate of customer demand called? Takt time Which of these is the best definition of takt time? Takt time is the rate at which you need to complete a product in order to meet customer demand. It comes from the German word “Takt,” meaning beat or pulse in music. Within manufacturing, takt […]

How is soil permeability measured?

How is soil permeability measured? Soil permeability, also termed hydraulic conductivity, is measured using several methods that include constant and falling head laboratory tests on intact or reconstituted specimens. Alternatively, permeability may be measured in the field using insitu borehole permeability testing (e.g. [2]), and field pumping tests. How many test in the lab can […]
