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.

Fluidized Bed Combustion Technology
Fluidized bed combustion (FBC) is defined as, "a combustion technology used to burn solid or low grade fuels".
Fuel particles are suspended in a hot bed of particulate materials (like ash, sand, limestone).
Since this allows coal plants to burn at cooler temperatures, less NOx is also emitted.
We have large coal reservoirs but it has high Sulphur content ↣ to deal with this issue, we have Fluidized Bed Combustion Technology.
This technology is used because:
Sulphur emission decreases by Lime.
NOx emission decreases by decrease in temperature.
Circulating Type Fluidized Bed Boiler
It is defined as, "a boiler which works on the fluidized bed combustion technology for producing heat". There are two types of Circulating Type Fluidized Bed (CFB) Boiler:
Circulating Type ↣ Particle velocity ranges between 5 - 10 m/s.
Bubbling Type ↣ Particle velocity ranges between 1 - 3 m/s.
Construction
Bed Drain Tube ↣ used to remove ash.
Grid Plate ↣ where combustion occurs.
Submerged Tube Bank ↣ for producing steam.
Plenum Chamber ↣ used for storing air.
Working
Air from fan enters furnace↣ pass through bed of finely divided particles (sand) ↣ air velocity increases, sand particles vibrate (which heat air)↣ desired fuel is added (first secondary then primary fuel is added) ↣ when self sustained temperature of coal is added, we cut primary fuel ↣ then coal is added ↣ initial combustion starts ↣ unburned coal particles leaves furnace ↣ Primary cyclone capturing then back into furnace.
Loop Seals ↣ maintains the pressure balance between the furnace and exit of the separators allowing the solid to flow back into the furnace.
High Performance particle steam heat exchanger ↣ Interax which extracts high temperature heat from hot particles in CFB to produce high temperature superheated steam.
Ques: What does fluidized means?
Ans: When air (or gas) is passed through finely divided bed of solid particles (sand), the particle remain undisturbed at low velocity. As velocity increase, particles start to vibrate remain suspended in air stream.
Fluidized combustion ↣ (840 - 950)℃ much lower than ash fusion temperature, ash and NOx reduces.
Ash can be used as Cement Raw Material.
Advantages
Very low quality fuel is used. Like coal, biomass, tyres).
Coal is used in coarse phase (not in powdered form).
TAPING CORRECTIONS There are two types of corrections depending upon the type of errors in tape due to the different conditions. 1. Systematic Errors : Slope Erroneous tape length Temperature Tension Sag 2. Random Errors : Slope Alignment Marking & Plumbing Temperature Tension & Sag 1. Temperature Correction It is necessary to apply this correction, since the length of a tape is increased as its temperature is raised, and consequently, the measured distance is too small. It is given by the formula, C t = 𝛼 (T m – T o )L Where, C t = the correction for temperature, in m. 𝛼 = the coefficient of thermal expansion. T m = the mean temperature during measurement. T o = the tempe...
Introduction Existence of perfect crystals (without defects) are ideal. Instead, we have kinds of imperfection. Ques: Why study imperfections in Solids? When pure metals alloyed (addition of impurities ) like Sterling Silver ↣ 92.5 % Ag and 7.5 % Cu , Cartridge Brass ↣ 70 % Cu and 30 % Zn . These impurities play an important role in semiconductors properties, steel composition, etc. Atomic defects are responsible for reduction gas pollutants emissions in automobiles. Ques: How polluting gases converted into non-pollutant gases? Ans: Molecules of pollutant gases become attached to surface defects of crystalline material. Hence it convert into less-polluting substance. Types of Defects (Imperfections) in Solids There are four types of defects: Point (or Zero-D) Defects Linear (or 1-D) Defects Planar (or 2-D) Defects Bulk (or 3-D) Defects 1. Point Defects It is defined as, " defects associated with one or two atomic position " . Point defects are further divided into tw...
Reynolds Number: Reynolds Number is the ratio of Inertial forces to the Viscous forces. By knowing this number, one can describe the flow whether the flow is laminar, turbulent or transitional flow. There are three possibilities of the range of Reynolds Number: If Reynolds number < 2100 or 2300 ⟺ Laminar Flow If Reynolds number > 4000 ⟺ Turbulent Flow If 2300 < Reynolds number < 4000 ⟺ Transitional Flow In case of different shapes other than circle, the formula for Reynolds Number remain the same however diameter involves in the formula become Hydraulic Diameter which is given by: For pipe: Critical Reynolds Number ⟾ The Reynolds number at which the flow becomes turbulent Re cr For different shapes, the hydraulic diameters are given by: Completely Filled Flow In Closed Channel: If pipe is is considered to filled completely with closed channel, then following are the conditions which...
