Relative Plate Thickness Factor Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Relative Plate Thickness Factor?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

τ = t \cdot \sqrt{\frac{(T c - t a) \cdot ρ m \cdot Q c}{H net}}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

τ = 5mm \cdot \sqrt{\frac{(500°C - 37°C) \cdot 7850kg/m³ \cdot 4.184kJ/kg*K}{1000J/mm}}

Next Step Convert Units

∴

τ = 0.005m \cdot \sqrt{\frac{(500°C - 37°C) \cdot 7850kg/m³ \cdot 4184J/(kg*K)}{1E+6J/m}}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

τ = 0.005 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{(500 - 37) \cdot 7850 \cdot 4184}{1E+6}}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

τ = 0.616582460016501

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

τ = 0.6166
