Measurements are made at two depths. The total head is 100 cm at depth 0.2 m and is 250 cm at depth 1.2 m, respectively. The soil moisture content and hydraulic conductivity are modeled by Campbell equations ( Hb  50 cm, n  0.33 , and  =1). If the soil moisture flux between these two points is 0.04 (cm/day) downward, calculate the saturated hydraulic conductivity (cm/day).

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
