Subjective Question

1. Temperature and pressure are measures of the physical state of a substance. They are closely related to the energy contained in the substance. As a result, measurements of temperature and pressure provide a means of determining energy content.

Temperature

It is the degree of hotness or coldness measured on a definite scale. Heat is a form of energy; temperature, a measurement of its thermal effects. In other words, temperature is a means of determining sensible heat content of the substance

Pressure

It is the force per unit area applied to outside of a body. When we heat a gas in a confined

2. Specific heat is defined as the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of a substance through 1 OC. Heat capacity is defined as the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of the object by 1 OC.

3. Reactive power (kVAr) is the portion of the apparent power that does no work. This type of power must be supplied to all types of magnetizing equipment, such as motors, transformers etc. larger the magnetizing requirement, larger the kVAr. Active power is the work producing part of the apparent power.

4. Energy Audit is defined as “the verification, monitoring and analysis of use of energy including submission of technical report containing recommendations for improving energy efficiency with cost benefit analysis and an action plan to reduce energy consumption”.

5.

6. The specific energy consumption is defined as the energy required to produce a unit of output.

e.g. : Compressors:

A compressor generates 100 cfm of air at 7 kg/cm2 pressure. The power drawn by the motor is 18 kW.

i.e. Specific energy consumption is = 18/100

=0.18kW/cfm@7kg/cm2

7. In material and energy balance study by assessing the input, conversion efficiency, output and losses helps in establishing the basis for improvements and potential savings. It helps in finding improvements in a prioritised manner.

8. Exothermic reaction: A chemical reaction in which Heat is released.

Endothermic reaction: A chemical reaction in which heat is absorbed.
