Study Notes
Mechanics
- Frictional Force (F): Frictional force is measured in newtons and calculated as F = μN, where μ is the coefficient of friction and N represents Newtons.
- Force (F): Force is measured in newtons.
- Distance (D): Distance is a measure of length.
- Velocity (v): Velocity is calculated as v = v° + at, where v° represents the original velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is time.
- Acceleration (a): Acceleration is calculated using the appropriate formula.
- Displacement (s): Displacement is the change in position of an object.
- Final Velocity (v): This is determined by v² = v² + 2as, considering initial velocity (v), acceleration (a), and displacement or distance covered (s).
Energy
- Kinetic Energy (K.E.): Kinetic energy (K.E.) is calculated as K.E. = 1/2mv², calculated from the mass (m) of the object and its speed or velocity (v).
- Potential Energy (P.E.): Potential energy is measured in joules and calculated as P.E. = mgh. Variables include the mass (m) of the object, acceleration due to gravity (g), and height (h) above a reference surface.
- Potential Energy (Elastic P.E.): Elastic potential energy is calculated as P.E. = 1/2kx², using the spring constant (k) and the amount of compression (x).
Momentum & Force
- Momentum (p): Momentum (p) is determined by the product of mass (m) and velocity (v). p = mv
- Force (F): Force (F) is determined by the product of mass (m) and acceleration (a). F = ma
- Work Done by Gravity (W): Work done by gravity equals mg where m is the mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Ergonomics (NIOSH Lifting Equations)
- Lifting Index (LI): The LI is calculated as LI = L/RWL, where L is the weight of the object and RWL is the recommended weight limit.
- Recommended Weight Limit (RWL): This is calculated using various multipliers (horizontal, vertical, distance, asymmetric, frequency, and coupling).
Heat Stress & Relative Humidity
- Indoor Heat Calculation: 0.7 WB + 0.3 GT where WB is wet-bulb temperature, and GT is globe temperature, as well as Indoor Calculation which involves no solar load.
Concentrations of Vapors and Gases
- Parts per million (ppm): ppm is a unit of concentration, converting to mg/m³ using MW and the constant 24.45.
- Threshold Limit Value (TLV): TLV is a limit value for a chemical's concentration in the air, relevant to different fractions (weight percent).
Ventilation
- Volumetric Flow Rate (Q): Volumetric flow rate (Q) is calculated from velocity (V) and cross-sectional area (A) using Q = VA.
- Velocity (V): Velocity (V) is calculated using 4005 √SPh.
- Static Pressure (SP): Includes factors of duct velocity pressure (VP) and an entry loss term (h), where SP = VP + he .
Noise
- Sound Intensity (I): Sound intensity (I) is equal to p²/(ρc), calculated from sound pressure level (p), the medium's density (ρ), and the speed of sound (c).
- Combined Sound Pressure Level (Lpt): This combines individual measured sound pressure levels (Lpi).
- Sound Power Level (Lw): Sound power level (Lw), is measured in decibels (dB) and calculated by 10log₁₀(W⁄W').
Reliability
- Probability of Failure (P₁): Probability of failure is determined by P₁ = 1 – R(t) where R is reliability.
- Reliability (R(t)): Reliability is calculated as R(t) = e⁻λt where t represents the time and λ represents the failure rate.
Radiation
- Intensity (I): Intensity, calculated by the ratio of intensities I₂ / I₁=(d₁/d₂)²
- Linear Attenuation Coefficient (μ): Relevant to calculating intensity through shielding or materials.
Engineering Economy
- Future Value (F): Future value (F) of an investment is described by F = P(1 + i)ⁿ where P is the present value, i is interest rate in decimal, and n is the number of periods.
- Present Value (P): Present value (P) of a future value (F) is given by P = F/(1 + i)ⁿ
