The heat treatment process in which heating of steel is done to a temperature above the A3 temperature and it between 1000 - 1200°C and hold is for long time 10-20hr and followed by cooling is called
A large set of data for a given measurement has been found to be normally distributed around a mean 'μ' with standard deviation 'σ'. Which of the following limits would have about 95% of the data points around the mean and rest outside?
Two identical engineering components are made from alloys X and Y. The KIC of alloy X is greater than that of alloy Y. If these components are subjected to the same stress during operation under mode-I loading, which one of the following statements is true?
For a steady state two dimensional in-compressible flow of liquid iron, the x component of the velocity is given by μ = 5xy2 - xy where x and y are rectangular co-ordinates.
Using the continuity equation, the y component of the velocity would be
The two surfaces of a 5 mm thick plate of carbon steel are maintained at a carbon concentration of 104 mol. m-3 on one side and zero concentration on the other side. Taking the diffusion coefficient of carbon in austenite to be 10-11 m-2.s-1, the steady state flux (mol.m-3.s-1) through the thickness of the steel is
A cylindrical rod subjected to a tensile strain within the elastic limit undergoes a volume change. If the volume strain is equal to half the applied tensile strain then the poisson's ratio of the rod is
One face of a furnace wall is at 1030°C and the othere is exposed to the room temperature (30°C). If the thermal conductivity of the furnace wall is 3W. m-1 k-1 and the wall thickness is 0.3 m the maximum heat loss (in W/m2) is
