Well your fluid discharge temp is higher than your input fluid temp so the pumped fluid is .... so the answer would be.........

Actually Lyn... looking at a scan of some questions they posted in another thread - I'd recommend not taking that class again... doesn't appear to be accredited... among other things.

That would be fore you as you where the only stumped by the question and now you feel all that education you paid for was insufficient to the other post! Don't feel bad it happens and like I showed you use google don't be afraid it's there for you to use.

I didn't know we were back in school. That was a very basic question and you had difficulty with it? What class is the question for?

You seem to all over think it and went out of way to see what the test was about! Well there 6 hours of lives we won't get back! I do appreciate the negative attitude as that is what was expected when I asked the question. Goal served! And class is over and I passed so thanks for the hugely and the negative attitude! Glad to stir the pot and get a rise out of you.

First, you didn't get a rise out of us... we are naturally this way.

Second, if that - as you said - was the intention and expectation when you asked for assistance, then please don't ask for any more. Do you forget that you are a student, asking for help from those more experienced than you likely ever will be, and then question their ability because they don't want to 'give' you the answers to 'your' school work? I think it is you that has the negative attitude... the only thing we have is an ethical and moral obligation to not 'give' you answers to your school work.

Third, that was a final examination, and you passed the class?! Then I am seriously afraid for the quality of education you are receiving.

But I do appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to read an email I didn't even read except for I didn't get a rise and then I stopped at that point did not read the rest of your email but thank you again for your help I did pass the class and I know longer need your services so again thank you for your time

A rise out of me? No you didn't!

It took me about 30 seconds out of my busy day to answer your homework question you spent 6 hours on and you still needed the help of a very experienced technician to answer a very, VERY basic homework question that he should have told you to study and do your own work.

If your intention was to get a rise out of this forum, you failed miserably!

And you wonder why we get tired of telling lazy students to study?

Oh, by the way. Still no rise!

Again it's not home work question of me trying to be lazy! We again we were told to get the correct answer then write a paper on 6 questions! That is where the work comes in not getting the answer. Glad it took you seconds to get the answer as I have the answer as well which was rise! I don't work in the industrial side and others in the class are having just as hard a time as me. But all is good thanks for your support and no wonder no one wants to get in the hvac trade!

Hopeless! He passed it and is a high fly now. Nothing can stop him now. He is young, he no needs any more knowledge, the passing of the class makes him superior. The old ones can go home.

It will fly until the next fall.

Its Icarus!
