What is cohesionless granular materials?
Materials which have a low to zero moisture content, where the individual particles do not bond and material will flow at a relatively low angle due to the low particle friction.
Effects of moisture on electricity?
In foods, this indicates the percentage of water in the total weight of the food. This exceeds the dry weight, and is a portion of the water used in processing. In lumber, this indicates the remaining water after drying of the wood. Kiln-dried lumber will normally have a lower moisture content than air-dried.
Why sheet steel with high silicon content is used in transformer core whereas lower silicon content sheet for rotating machine?
high permeability ,low hysterisis,increased resistivity
Looking for the composition of electrolytic tough pitch copper?
ETP is 99.5%+ pure copper that is very low in oxygen content it is the most common wire used for transformers Silver content in the wire is consider copper for purity analysis
How do you tanalise timber?
Timber is 'TANALISED' (treated) in an industrial treatment vessel using TANALITH preservative applied using vacuum pressure technology. TANALITH and TANALISED are registered trade marks of the preservative manufacturer, Arch Timber Protection, and may only be used to describe industrial timber treatment using TANALITH preservative. The treatment process consists of 5 stages: 1. Timber is loaded into the treatment vessel. An initial vacuum is applied, and the timber cells are evacuated of air. This vacuum is held. 2. The cylinder is flooded under vacuum with TANALITH wood preservative. 3. Hydraulic pressure is applied, forcing the preservative deep into the structure of the timber. 4. A final vacuum extracts excess preservative solution, which is then pumped back into storage. 5. Low pressure inside timber draws in surface solution when vented to atmosphere. The treated timber is then left to dry - a minimum holding time of 48 hours is recommended. In Europe, TANALITH E preservative is used, which contains copper and triazole biocides, which are commonly used to protect food crops. TANALISED E pressure treated timber can be used in a range of applications, from construction timbers through to heavy duty, highway fencing applications, where a desired service life of 15 years plus can reasonably be expected. Note that where TANALISED treated timber is cross cut, notched or bored following treatment, liberal coating of ENSELE end grain preservative is required to maintain the integrity of the preservative system. Further information on TANALITH E and the treatment process can be found on the Arch Timber Protection website at www.archtp.com. General information regarding timber treatments is available on the Wikipedia site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/wood_preservation
What would be the most likely cause for the movement of air shown?
low moisture content and low temperature
How does wind direction affect moisture content?
Wind direction can affect moisture content by influencing the source of air masses. If winds are coming from a moisture source, such as an ocean, they can bring more moisture. Conversely, winds coming from drier regions can reduce moisture content.
What is youngest and softest type of coal is called?
lignite
How is harmatten worsening desertification in the region of Africa?
harmattan winds have a low moisture content making it unpleasant
Is considered a potentially hazardous food?
Bread is not potentially hazardous because of it's low moisture content/
What are organisms that can grow on substances with very low moisture content?
Organisms like xerophiles can grow on substances with very low moisture content. Xerophiles are a type of extremophile that have adapted to thrive in environments with little moisture, such as deserts or salt flats. They have evolved mechanisms to withstand dehydration and utilize scarce water sources efficiently.
How does a moisture meter give a reading of the moisture content of wood?
A moisture meter measures the electrical resistance or capacitance of the wood, which can vary with moisture content. The meter is calibrated to convert this electrical signal into a percentage of moisture content. This reading helps determine if the wood is at an appropriate level of dryness for its intended use.
Honey can be kept without decaying?
Honey has a low water content and acidic pH, which creates an inhospitable environment for bacteria and microorganisms to grow. Its natural properties, such as high sugar content and low moisture, help prevent spoilage and decay. Properly stored honey can essentially remain stable indefinitely.
What is the difference between LOD and Moisture Content?
LOD (Loss on Drying) is a method used to measure the moisture content of a material by weighing it before and after drying to remove the moisture. Moisture content is the amount of water present in a material, usually expressed as a percentage of the total weight. LOD is a specific analytical technique, while moisture content is a more general term describing the water content in a substance.
What is cohesionless granular materials?
Materials which have a low to zero moisture content, where the individual particles do not bond and material will flow at a relatively low angle due to the low particle friction.
Different kinds of coal?
The three main types of coal are anthracite, bituminous, and lignite. Anthracite is the highest rank of coal, known for its high carbon content and low moisture content. Bituminous is the most common type of coal, with a balance of carbon and volatile matter. Lignite is the lowest rank of coal, with high moisture content and low carbon content.
What does millar afpa 23 s-p-f kd-hi 2 mean on lumber that I bought from a friend mean?
H1 The treatment level for low hazard situations where timber is not exposed to the weather. Its major use is for framing timber and interior linings. This is split into two categories. H1.1 Timber used in situations protected from the weather, dry in service and where resistance to borer only is required. H1.2 Timber used in situations protected from the weather but where there is a risk of moisture exposure conducive to decay.
