Chestermiller's latest activity

Here's a focus problem: I have a spherical shell of low density polyethylene of inner radius 10 cm and outer radius 10.1 cm. The shell...

Yes. Check out the phase diagram for water Phase Diagram of Water Also, the water experiences an increase in volume in the deformed...

The container could impose compressive stress on the ice which alters the thermodynamic relationship between ice and water, and can...

The volume expansion from water to ice is an intrinsic property of water specifically under the constraint of negligible confining...

Henry's Law tells us that the concentration of oxygen in the rubber at its outer surface is equal to the partial pressure of oxygen in...

What are the parameters in your equations, and what criterion are you using for failure?

Counter current heat exchangers, flash vaporizers, cooling towers, heat pumps, refrigeration units, mixing with ice, '''

Have you considered all possible scenarios. I think you should read up on the concept of exergy.

What do you mean by the term "cooling can be generated," and are you saying that this broad statement has no constraints? For example...

If I understand you correctly, right for an adiabatic process.

Here's a big surprise: The surroundings doing adiabatic compression work on a gas causes its internal energy and temperature to...

From a fundamental materials point of view, if the metal is isotropic and the sample in not constrained or loaded mechanically...

It's an interpretation, so not testable as far as we know. It's far and away the most popular interpretation, and fits well with the...

Cooling by expansion can be done with less energy consumption than by what? This seems to me to be basically just a standard reversible...

Here are my calculations for scenario 1. Given: Initial Temperature = ##T_i=300.2K## Initial Pressure = ##P_i=101325\ Pa## Number of...
