    for non abet, you will need 6 years of acceptable eng experience. If someone worked for 10 yrs but only 2.5 years of acceptable and verified "engineering" experience under pe supervision then he cannot be admitted to sit in for pe exam. apply and pass the fe exam first. I suggest not to rely on...

    why a ball valve has less resistance than gate valve when wide open?

    Because the gate valve's seat tends to slow down the flow. While ball valve's ball conforms to the exact inside diameter of the piping therefore less resistance.

    Q=Cp*(T2-T1)

    Sorry, I thought we're talking about water. For hvac and aerodyn calcs, use the initial temp as reference to find the Cp of air since this will greatly influence ur answer. Same as when the working substance is water. Avoid assuming it's always constant. Getting the correct Cp will not take 1...

    Q=Cp*(T2-T1)

    Q=Cp(T2-T1) is always used in heat absorbed by water. Avoid using the "constant 0.24". Use the initial temp as reference to find the correct Cp since this is the property of the water entering the heat exchanger.
