Aluminum-jacketed calcium silicate insulation with an emissivity factor of 0.05. To convert inches to milhmeters, multiply hy 25.4 to convert miles per hour to kilometers per hour, multiply hy 1.609 and to convert dollars per 1 milhon British thermal units to dollars per 1 million kilojoules, multiply hy 0.948 = 5/9 ( F — 32). [Pg.1103]

Those seals work w ell within theii" designed life. Theii designed life is about 2,000 hours. An automotive drive shaft spinning at about 1,800 rpni w onld move the ear at approximately 50 miles per hour. 2,000 hours would be ee]uivalent to about 100,000 miles on a ear. 2,000 hours (at 1,800 rpm) on a pump w ould be equivalent to about 83 days at 24/7 operation. Many meehanies have questioned the logie of installing a 3-month seal to proteet a 5-year bearing. [Pg.170]

Hydraulic shock Visualize what happens at home when a faucet is open. A solid shaft of water is moving through the pipes from file point where it enters the house to the faucet. This could be 100 pounds of water moving at 10 feet per second, about seven miles per hour. [Pg.313]

The pilots shall be designed for stability with wind conditions up to 160 mile per hour. [Pg.305]

When a driver commands an increase in vehicle velocity, that vehicle obeys Newton s first law of motion, which states that when a force (F) acts on a body of mass (M) and initially at rest, that body tvill experience an acceleration (a). For an automobile, typical units for acceleration, which is the rate of change of velocity, would be miles per hour per sec-... [Pg.98]

The same rule is true of automobile travel. An automobile traveling at 70 miles per hour will need nearly twice the energy to overcome wind resistance as if it made the same trip at 50 miles per hour. Again, the difference in fuel consumption will be less due to the effect of rolling friction (nearly independent of speed), the fuel used to accelerate up to speed after eveiy stop, and the energy used to operate lights, air conditioner, etc. [Pg.967]

In this formula, w is the weight in tons per axle b is a coefficient of flange friction (0.03 for passenger cars) V is the speed in miles per hour C is the air drag coefficient (0.0017 for locomotives, 0.00034 for trailing passenger cars) and A is the cross-sectional area of locomotives and cars (120 sq ft for locomo-Uves, 110 sq ft for passenger cars). [Pg.971]

Power consumption is the product of drag force and speed—and four tires on a typical American sedan consume approximately 10 horsepower of engine output at 65 miles per hour. [Pg.1140]

Nature of climate. Consider seasonal and daily temperature variations, dust, fog, tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes. Define duration of conditions for design. Determine from U.S. Weather Bureau yearly statistics for above, as well as rainfall. Establish if conditions for earthquakes, hurricanes prevail. For stormy conditions, structural design for 100 miles per hour winds usually sufficient. For hurricanes, winds of 125 miles per hour may be design basis. [Pg.46]

Rotor speed is the final factor that must be considered. Most rotating elements are balanced at their normal running speed or over their normal speed range. As a result, they may be out of balance at some speeds that are not included in the balancing solution. As an example, the wheel and tires on your car are dynamically balanced for speeds ranging from zero to the maximum expected speed (i.e., 80 miles per hour). At speeds above 80 miles per hour, they may be out of balance. [Pg.938]
