Common questions

What problem could arise with taking temperature measurements if the reaction being monitored was very slow?

What problem could arise with taking temperature measurements if the reaction being monitored was very slow?

If the temperature reading governing the process is slow, there is obvious opportunity for overheating.

What is the response time of a thermocouple?

The response time for a thermocouple is usually defined as the time taken for the thermal voltage (output) to reach 63% of maximum for the step change temperature in question.

What are 5 factors that affect reaction rate?

Five factors typically affecting the rates of chemical reactions will be explored in this section: the chemical nature of the reacting substances, the state of subdivision (one large lump versus many small particles) of the reactants, the temperature of the reactants, the concentration of the reactants, and the …

What happens if thermoregulation is not maintained properly?

Maintaining this optimum temperature is called thermoregulation. When this stops working properly, high temperatures can cause dehydration, heat stroke and death if untreated. Low temperatures can cause hypothermia and then also death if untreated. The body’s temperature is monitored by the brain.

What happens to the body if the temperature is too low?

Low temperatures can cause hypothermia and then also death if untreated. The body’s temperature is monitored by the brain. If you are too hot or too cold, the brain sends nerve impulses to the skin, which has three ways to either increase or decrease heat loss from the body’s surface. These are:

Which is the most important control of body temperature?

These are: 1 trapping more or less warm air to insulate 2 sweating and shivering 3 control of blood flow (vasodilation or vasoconstriction)

How does A thermoconforming organism avoid thermoregulation?

Thermoregulation. Thermoregulation is the ability of an organism to keep its body temperature within certain boundaries, even when the surrounding temperature is very different. A thermoconforming organism, by contrast, simply adopts the surrounding temperature as its own body temperature, thus avoiding the need for internal thermoregulation.

What to do if your thermostat does not turn on?

Thermostat is calling for Heat (Heat on) or Cool (Cool on) but no heating or cooling is running. Heating or cooling equipment is not operating. Check wiring. Check Installer Setup Number 0170 and make sure correct system type is chosen. Verify operation of equipment in System Test mode. Heat does not turn on (Heat On is solid in the display).

What happens when outside temp is below Lev-El?

Reconfigure system. (Stat) The outside temperature is below the lev- el where the heat pump is programmed to heat the home. The system will not use the heat pump to warm your home. Notification only – Outdoor Temp is below the Low Balance Point. Heat Pump will not be used to service a heating demand.

What should I do if my Lennox thermostat does not come on?

Check Installer Setup Number 0670 to change keypad locked options. Heating or cooling does not come on. Thermostat minimum off- time is activated. Wait up to five minutes for the system to respond. System selection not set to Heat or Cool.
