KiwiMace: Sorry for the unclear explanation. While I was testing, the bath started at 30 degrees Celsius one day because the tower water that I switch off was warm on that day and with our test unit running, the bath temperature stayed constant so I was able to use the equations for constant...
The project I am working on at work is determining the cooling system requirements for wire drawing machines. This involves the wire being pulled through sets of dies to reduce the diameter. This process is done while submerged in the "bath" of the machine. The bath liquid has to stay under a...
Thanks for the response pmover. The process is open to the atmospheric conditions in the building where it can get hot and humid in the summer time. The machine is a wet wire drawing machine and it has a "soap" bath for lubrication and cooling of the dies. We would like to know if there is a...
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how the ambient air temperature and humidity affects a bath containing a liquid (specific heat is unknown right now, but we will find that out soon). I would like to know how to calculate the affect of the ambient conditions on the heating or cooling of the...
