Consider a general case where soil moisture may limit the surface specific humidity. In this case actual latent heat can be modeled using Equation (8.5.12). Consider two cases: 1) a saturated soil as mentioned above; and 2) a water-limited case (volumetric soil moisture is 80% of the field capacity) where the multiplicative reduction factor is given by Equation (8.3.20). Use an appropriate model to compute the latent heat flux using the above measurements for each of these cases. How do the values of the fluxes between the water-limited case and the saturated soil case compare

Ashielded metal arc-welding operation is accomplished in a work cell by a fitter and a welder. the fitter takes 5.5 min to load components into the welding fixture at the beginning of the work cycle, and 1.5 min to unload the completed weldment at the end of the cycle. the total ength of the weld seams 1200 mm, and the travel speed used by the welder averages 300 mm/min. every 600 mm of seam length, the welding stick must be changed, which takes 0.8 min. while the fitter is working, the welder is idle (resting): and while the welder is working the fitter is idle. (a) determine the average arc-on time as a fraction of the work cycle time. (b) how much improvement in arc-on time would result if the welder used flux-cored arc welding (manually operated), given that the spool of weld wire must be changed every 10 weldments, and it takes the welder 5.0 min to accomplish the change? (c) what are the production rates for these two cases (weldments completed per hour)? attach your work and solutions.
