A dispersion-strengthened cutting tool will be made of a 80 vol % commercial purity nickel matrix and 20 vol % synthetic diamond. Nickel has an elastic modulus, given in Table 6.1, of 200 GPa and a tensile fracture strength of 400 MPa, and synthetic diamond has an elastic modulus of 900 GPa and a tensile fracture strength of 1000 MPa. Estimate the tensile strength and elastic modulus of this alloy.

What will be an ideal response?


The tensile strength is estimated as

Two parallel plates of infinite extent perpendicular to the page are situated relative to each other as shown in the figure. The upper plate is at 300°C and the lower plate is at 100°C. Determine the net rate of radiation heat transfer from the upper and lower plate assuming the environment is at a temperature below 100°C. Assume that both the lower surface of the upper plate and the upper surface of the lower plate are black.


GIVEN
• Two parallel plates of infinite extent perpendicular to the page.
• Upper plate temperature (T2) = 3000C
• Lower plate temperature (T1)= 1000C
• Length of the plates L1 = L2 = 2 m
• Distance between the plates (R) = 1 m
FIND
(a) Net rate of radiation heat transfer from upper and lower plate.
ASSUMPTIONS
• Lower surface of upper plate and upper surface of lower plate are black.
