Climate change isn't just about temperature! The amount of rain and snow (precipitation) in certain regions of the U. S. is also changing. In some areas, the amount of precipitation has decreased. Scientist predict that these dry areas will get even drier in the future. If the warmer areas on the map also become drier, what will happen to wildfire risk?

Drier conditions will likely result in fewer wildfires

Along 8-cm diameter steam pipe whose external surface temperature is 900c connects two buildings. the pipe is exposed to ambient air at 70c with a wind speed of 50 km/hr blowing across the pipe. determine the heat loss from the pipe per unit length. (b) air at 500c enters a section of a rectangular duct (15 cm x 20 cm) at an average velocity of 7 m/s. if the walls of the duct are maintained at 100c. a) the length of the tube for an exit temperature of the air to be 40 0c. b)the rate of heat transfer from the air. c) the fan power needed to overcome the pressure drop in this section of the duct.
