    Gas Law Calculation: Pressure Effects of Temp from 17-22C

    So the pressure is 200Pa gauge or 101525 absolute @ 22'C or 295Kelvin. I'm trying to find P2 after a 1'C pressure drop so 21'C. P2 = P1*T2/T1 therefore P2 = 101525*294/295. The answer for that is coming out as 101180.85 absolute or -144.15Pa gauge.

    Gas Law Calculation: Pressure Effects of Temp from 17-22C

    So this appears to make a fairly big difference, unless I'm doing something wrong. Results: 200Pa @ 22'C -144Pa @ 21'C -488 @ 20'C -831 @ 19'C So fairly substantial changes there.

    Gas Law Calculation: Pressure Effects of Temp from 17-22C

    What about pressure? Do I have to use absolute... e.g. 200Pa gauge is 101525Pa absolute (assuming atmospheric pressure is 101325Pa)?

    Gas Law Calculation: Pressure Effects of Temp from 17-22C

    Okay thanks. One last question and sorry to be a pain, what units should I be using? I'm assuming temperature in kelvins right?

    Gas Law Calculation: Pressure Effects of Temp from 17-22C

    So I should be able to calculate my constant and work backwards from that to see how pressure changes as temperature does.

    Gas Law Calculation: Pressure Effects of Temp from 17-22C

    Sorry, I probably should have been a bit more detailed and specific. The 1m X 1m X 1.5m chamber is empty (other than the air) and positioned in a room that is currently 17'C. The room is also positive 30Pa to atmospheric. The chamber is temperature/humidity controlled and sits at 21'C and when...

    Gas Law Calculation: Pressure Effects of Temp from 17-22C

    [Moderator's note: Recategorized thread to "Basic".] I'm having an issue at work that I think may be down to temperature. I have a sealed chamber that is 1m X 1m X 1.5m. The chamber has to be pressure tested but the results are all over the show. The only variable is temperature. So my...

    Does Shaking Harder Create More Charge in a Faraday Flashlight?

    Thanks for the reply. So do you think a single pass through a 1m long coil could produce the same amount as multiple passes through a 0.1m long coil?

    Does Shaking Harder Create More Charge in a Faraday Flashlight?

    So I have a very basic question, but I have next to no electrical understanding so can't answer it myself. With a Faraday torch you shake a magnet in a coil to create electrical charge. They say the harder you shake the more charge you create, so my question is this... is it the increased...

    How to calculate torque on a shaft?

    I have designed and built a steam powered turbine that I am trying to get to run a compressor. In order to choose a compressor I've been trying to calculate how much torque my turbine is producing. The only figures i have are... RPM - found using a tachometer Combined weight of turbine blade...

    Calculating Heat in Exhaust Pipes: Internal Temperature

    Im trying to calculate how hot the gas inside my exhaust pipe is. I have several numbers and a calculation on how to find heat transfer, but no way of finding inside temperature if i don't already know it. Length= 0.5m k (heat coefficient for stainless steel)= 25 Internal Diameter= 73.2mm...

    Find D in A: Transposition Help

    In it's actual form it's: Heat Transfer = ((2 * pi * heat coefficient * length) / Ln(Outside Diameter - Inside Diameter)) X (Inside Temperature - Outside Temperature) That gives you heat transfer. My problem is i know all the figures for one end of the pipe to give me an answer. But I'm...

    Find D in A: Transposition Help

    Just need a bit of help with this. A = ( ( 2 X pi X k X L ) / (Ln(1.041) ) X (D - E) I know everything except D. How do i find it?
