I understand the major components of the refrigeration cycle should be sized to match the cooling load. What is the downside to using a compressor that is too big for the application or an evaporator for that matter?
I have the performance data of a small DC powered centrifugal forward curve fan. According to this data, the rpm increases and amp draw decreases as the static pressure increases. The voltage is constant at 13.5vdc. I would have expected the fan to run at full speed with no static pressure and...
I have converted the data collected from a 1 hour long test in my DAQ (data aquisition)system. I have collected 29 different data points. The default orientation of Excel is to put the headings across the top and the readings below this. Since I have thousands of readings this makes sense to me...
Does anyone have a torque value table for brass fasteners? I am specifically looking for 5-16"-18 brass to mount a ground lug to the stud. I would like the preload and finish torque values.
I have two similar 2D drawings in AutoCAD 2000. Both drawings have been purged. However, one drawing is 300 kbytes and the other is 2500 kbytes. How can I clean up the second file?
A box 10ft.x7ft.x6.5ft.high on the back of a truck. Walls and ceiling insulated with R5 and floor insulated with R3. Outside temp 0ºF. Assume 10% infiltration. One mandoor and not ventilation. What is heat load to maintain 70ºF in box with 200cfm fan?
Secondly, if we assume the box is...
