Questions and Answers

What are the purposes of electrical heating?

  • Room heaters for domestic purposes, melting of metals for industrial purposes (correct)
  • Electric irons for domestic purposes, moulding of glass for industrial purposes
  • Hot plates for cooking, making of insulators for industrial purposes
  • Immersion heaters for water heating, electric toasters for domestic purposes
  • What are the advantages of electrical heating?

  • The system does not produce any flue gas, simple and accurate temperature control, economical (correct)
  • Complex temperature control, high initial cost, no protection against overheating
  • High maintenance cost, no protection against overcurrents, not suitable for accurate heating
  • Produces flue gas, requires high cost of cleaning, no temperature control
  • Explain briefly the following modes of heat transfer:

  • Convection: under what conditions heat transfer by convection is efficient. Radiation: different methods of heat transfer.
  • Conduction: different methods of heat transfer. Convection: under what conditions heat transfer by convection is efficient.
  • Radiation: describe the modes of heat transfer. Conduction: under what conditions heat transfer by conduction is efficient.

    What are the advantages of electric heating?

    <p>The advantages of electric heating include the absence of flue gas production, cleanliness requiring minimum cost of cleaning, simple and accurate temperature control, economical cost in terms of initial and maintenance costs, automatic protection against overcurrents or overheating, and the ability to perform special types of heating accurately.</p> Signup and view all the answers

    Explain the modes of heat transfer and under what conditions heat transfer by radiation is efficient.

    <p>The modes of heat transfer include conduction, convection, and radiation. Heat transfer by radiation is efficient under conditions where direct line of sight between the heat source and the object to be heated is available, and the intervening medium does not absorb or scatter the radiation significantly.</p> Signup and view all the answers
