Assignment 4 (Revision)
Student Name Student ID4 Mechanism Description – Hair Dryer Submitted By Course Professor Date Introduction A hair dryer which is also known as blow dryer, is electrical device which is utilized for drying as well as style hair. The main working mechanism of blow dryer lies in electric fan which is utilized to blow air over a warming coil which heats up the internal device in blow dryer. At the point when the warm air arrives at wet hair it dissipates the water. Hair dryers might be utilized with an assortment of brushes or combs to accomplish diverse hair styles. Here, we are discussing the working mechanism of hair dryer in detail (Advameg, Inc., 2019). Principle As we know that the reason for controlling evaporation is relative humidity which is the ratio of the measure of water that the air holds to the amount it can hold. It can be understand by following example: If the relative humidity is 90%, that implies that the air is holding 90% of its maximum volume of water. With the increase in the heat of air, relative humidity diminishes. Despite everything it has a similar measure of water, yet it can hold more amount of water. And if relative humidity decreases, the more effectively water dissipates. Hence, hot air will dry our hair very easily and quickly, as the water in the hair will evaporate quickly (Butterfly Fields, 2019). Working Mechanism Hairdryer is electromagnetic device that mainly uses electricity for its working. As we turn on hairdryer, electricity is passed to start its motor that is responsible to spin a fan which is located in the dryer. The fan mainly brings room temperature in the hairdryer. This is electric fan that helps to evaporate water from the hair as well as heating component. When room temperature air passes into the hairdryer via vents, then this air passes through nichrome wire which can be used as heating element. Nichrome is a compound that is joined with both nickel as well as chromium. The nichrome wire goes about as a resistor of the electric energy, which thus makes the warmth that the room temperature air goes through to become hot enough to get the moisture out of the hair (Dever, 2016). Quality Control Every single electrical device might be risky if it is not properly used. Hair dryers are especially risky on the grounds that they may inadvertently dropped into a sink or bath tub which is full of water. Along these lines, exceptional quality control precautionary measures must be taken to minimize the risk of electric shock. But in case of modern dryers, they use GFCI to avert any power that flows in the device when it finds any type of short circuit. Constantly by 2000, the death rate had been reduced with the utilization of hair dryers , and it is foreseen that this extra wellbeing feature will totally anticipate coincidental electric shocks if old hair dryer models have vanished from the market (Advameg, Inc., 2019).
