Chapter 37, Problem 1RQ
What are the two primary functions of the electrodes in resistance welding?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The two primary functions of the electrode used in the resistance welding.
Explanation of Solution
The electrode used in the resistance welding must be conductive in nature because it is used to supply the current to the materials being joined. When the current passes through the materials, due to contact resistance between them heat is generated in the material which raises the temperature at the junction (interface) of the two materials.
The electrode is also used to exert required pressure on the work-piece which varies throughout the weld cycle. Initially the pressure is applied to hold the work-pieces together and to maintain the resistance between them. When the required temperature is attained the pressure is used to induce coalescence (merging of the two materials as a one mass).

You are asked to design a unit to condense ammonia. The required condensation rate is 0.09kg/s. Saturated ammonia at 30 o C is passed over a vertical plate (10 cm high and 25 cm wide).The properties of ammonia at the saturation temperature of 30°C are hfg = 1144 ́10^3 J/kg andrho_v = 9.055 kg/m 3 . Use the properties of liquid ammonia at the film temperature of 20°C (Ts =10 o C):Pr = 1.463
rho_l= 610.2 kf/m^3
liquid viscosity= 1.519*10^-4 kg/ ms
kinematic viscosity= 2.489*10^-7 m^2/s
Cpl= 4745 J/kg C
kl=0.4927 W/m C
hfg*=hfg+0.68Cpl(Tsat-Given Ts)
a) Instead of one plate you want to use small plates and install many of them. Calculate the requiredsurface temperature to achieve the desired condensation rate (0.09 kg/s) if you install 36vertical plates (with the same dimension as above: 10 cm high and 25 cm wide).

- A prismatic beam is built into a structure. You can consider the boundary conditions at A and B to be fixed supports. The beam was originally designed to withstand a triangular distributed load, however, the loading condition has been revised and can be approximated by a cosine function as shown in the figure below. You have been tasked with analysing the structure. As the beam is prismatic, you can assume that the bending rigidity (El) is constant. wwo cos 2L x A B Figure 3: Built in beam with a varying distributed load In order to do this, you will: a.

The pin acts as a moment release, i.e. no moments are transferred through this pinned connection. Shear forces can be transferred through the pinned connection. Beam ABC has a pinned support at point A and a roller support at Point C. Beam CD has a roller support at Point D. A concentrated load, P, is applied to the mid span of beam CD, and acts at an angle as shown below. Two concentrated moments, MB and Mc act in the directions shown at Point B and Point C respectively. The magnitude of these moments is PL.
