Study Notes
Mechanics Equations
- Frictional Force (F): F = μN (μ = coefficient of friction, N = newtons)
- Forces and Distances: F₁D₁ = F₂D₂
- Force (F): Measured in newtons
- Distance (D): Measured in meters
- Velocity (v): v = v° + at (v° = original velocity, a = acceleration, t = time)
- Displacement (s): s = vt + (at²)/2 (v = initial velocity)
- Final Velocity (v): v² = v°² + 2as (v° = initial velocity, a = acceleration)
- Acceleration (a): the rate of change of velocity (meters per second squared)
Energy Equations
- Kinetic Energy (K.E.): K.E. = (mv²)/2 (m = mass, v = velocity)
- Potential Energy (P.E.): P.E. = mgh (m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height)
- Elastic Potential Energy (P.E.): P.E. = (kx²)/2 (k = spring constant, x = amount of compression)
- Momentum (p): p = mv (m = mass, v = velocity)
Other Equations
- Force (F): F = ma (m = mass, a = acceleration)
- Work (W): W = Fs (F = force, s = distance)
- Amount of Work from Gravity: W = mg (m = mass, g = gravitational acceleration
- Ergonomics (Lifting Index): LI = L/RWL (LI = lifting index, RWL = recommended weight limit. RWL = LC × HM × VM × DM × AM × FM × CM (factors for further calculation))
Heat Stress and Relative Humidity
- Indoor Heat Stress: 0.7WB + 0.3GT (WB = wet-bulb temperature, GT = globe temperature)
- Outdoor Heat Stress: 0.7WB + 0.2GT = 0.1DB (WB = wet-bulb temperature, GT = globe temperature, DB = dry-bulb temperature)
Concentrations of Vapors and Gases
- ppm (Parts per Million): ppm = mg/m³ * 24.45 / MW (mg/m³ = measured mg/m³ of the contaminant, MW = molecular weight of the contaminant)
- TLV (Threshold Limit Value): TLV = f₁/TLV₁ + f₂/TLV₂ +... + fₙ/TLVn (fi = fraction of chemical in the mixture, TLV = threshold limit value of the chemical)
- LFL (Lower Flammability Limit): LFLm = f₁/LFL₁ + f₂/LFL₂ +... + f/LFLn
Ventilation
- Volumetric Flow Rate (Q): Q = VA (V = air velocity, A = cross-sectional area of duct)
- Velocity (V): V = 4005√SP₁ (C = coefficient of entry loss, SP₁ = static pressure of hood)
- Static Pressure (SP): SP = VP + he (VP = duct velocity pressure, he = overall hood entry loss)
Additional Considerations
- For calculations involving corrections (e.g., incomplete mixing, corrections for sound pressure), consult the relevant section in the text.
- Units (e.g., meters, newtons, kilograms) are essential for accurate calculation or reference.
- Specific values for constants (e.g., g, K) and variables (e.g., temperatures) should be noted.
