AI Thread Summary

The term "no heat accumulation" refers to a condition where the temperature of a liquid remains constant, indicating that heat is neither being added nor lost. This concept is crucial for understanding how fluids in a storage tank behave, particularly in relation to heating systems. In a scenario with no heat accumulation, the water in the tank and the pipes maintains a stable temperature, which can impact efficiency and performance. This stability can be essential for applications requiring precise temperature control. Understanding this concept helps in optimizing heating systems and ensuring consistent output.

What is the meaning of the "no heat accumulation" ?

What is the meaning of the "no heat accumulation" ?and how it affects the fluid in the storage tank and the water being heated in the pipe inside the tank?

thanks

I would guess it means liquid is kept at constant temperature. But that's just a guess. Can you give some details about the context?

Thread 'I've come across another fluid pressure problem I don't understand'

Neglect gravity other than that of water; neglect friction. F1=ρgsh=1000*10*1*(1+4)=50000 N; F1=ρgsh=1000*10*0.1*4=4000 N; F3=50000-4000=46000 N?

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...

Thread 'Understanding Forces and their Vector Components'

I was told forces are vectors so they can be divided into x and y components, but what about the normal force or the force of static friction? do you divide those into x and y components if say you had a block that was lying on an angled surface?
