The thermal conductivity of hydrogen is _____________ times that of air?
Correct answer: D. 7
- A. 2
- B. 3
- C. 5
- D. 7
Explanation
Hydrogen conducts heat about seven times better than air, which makes it effective for removing heat from large turbo-alternators. Its low density also reduces windage losses.
