Radiation Heat Transfer

Image
View Factor Orientation (or View factor or shape factor) plays an important role in radiation heat transfer. View factor is defined as, "fraction of radiation leaving surface 'i' and strike 'j' ". Summation Rule (View Factor) If there is are similar surfaces 'i' and 'j' , then: Blackbody Radiation Exchange Radiation Exchange between Opaque, Diffuse, Gray surfaces in an Enclosure 1. Opaque 2. Surfaces 3. Two surface enclosure Radiation Shield It is used to protect surfaces from radiation act like a reflective surface.

Friction

Friction And it's Characteristics:

It is defined as;
A force which resists the movement of two contacting surface that slide relative to one another.

 The force always acts tangent to the point of contact and is directed opposite to the existing motion between the surfaces.

Types of Dry Friction Problems:

There three types of problems of Dry Friction:

1. No Apparent Impending Motion:

The body is about to slip. For the body not to slip Fs ≥ Us N, otherwise the body may slip. Only equilibrium equations are used.

2. Impending Motion at all Points of Contact:

In this scenario, equilibrium equations as well as frictional motion equation are used.

3. Impending Motion at some Points of Contact:

The body might get slip. In this scenario, number of unknowns are less than the equilibrium and frictional motion equation.

Impending Motion:

Impending motion refers to the state just before the surfaces start to slip.

Tipping Effect:

The effect in which body rotate and fall on its side when the moment due to pushing force becomes greater than the moment due to the force of gravity.
Mpushing force > Mgravity force

Difference Between Slipping and Tipping of a Body:


1. Slipping Effect:

When the pushing force will exceed the maximum static friction force and the box will begin to slide across the surface.
Fpushing force > Ffrictional force

2. Tipping Effect:


When the pushing force and the friction force will create a strong enough couple that the box will rotate and fall on its side.
Mpushing force > Mgravity force

Tipping Point:

When a body's center of gravity is above the area formed by the support base, the normal force can provide the necessary moment to remain in rotational equilibrium.
