Mechanically liquid mixing, objective

Convection involves the transfer of heat by means of a fluid, including gases and liquids. Typically, convection describes heat transfer from a solid surface to an adjacent fluid, but it can also describe the bulk movement of fluid and the associate transport of heat energy, as in the case of a hot, rising gas. Recall that there are two general types of convection forced convection and natural (free) convection. In the former, fluid is forced past an object by mechanical means, such as a pump or a fan, whereas the latter describes the free motion of fluid elements due primarily to density differences. It is common for both types of convection to occur simultaneously in what is termed mixed convection. In such instance, a modified form of Fourier s Law is applied, called Newton s Law of Cooling, where the thermal conductivity is replaced with what is called the heat transfer coefficient, h ... [Pg.341]

Explosives are solid or liquid ) substances, alone or mixed with one another, which are in a metastable state and are capable, for this reason, of undergoing a rapid chemical reaction without the participation of external reactants such as atmospheric oxygen. The reaction can be initiated by mechanical means (impact, -> Impact Sensitivity friction, -> Friction Sensitivity), by the action of heat (sparks, open flame, red-hot or white-hot objects), or by detonating shock (-> Blasting Cap with or without a - Booster charge). The resistance of the metastable state to heat is known as - Stability. The ease with which the chemical reaction can be initiated is known as -> Sensitivity. [Pg.131]
