Heat can be diverted away from the area you want to cool using the refrigeration cycle, also known as a heat pump cycle. This is done by repeatedly compressing and expanding the working refrigerant (air, water, synthetic refrigerants, etc.) to change its pressure.

<h3>What is the cycle of a heat pump?</h3>
  • In order to heat the air within a building, a heat pump warms the air outside by drawing heat from it and adding it to it. The following procedure is used to achieve this: A gas is created when liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the ambient air in the "evaporator."
  • The pressure buildup from the compressor raises the temperature of the refrigerant, just like it does with everything that is put under pressure. The refrigerant is a heated vapor, ranging in temperature from 120° to 140°F, when it exits the compressor.
  • The chemical refrigerant, once transformed from a gas to a liquid state, has a remarkable capacity to absorb heat. The heat inside your house might be absorbed and released outside when the refrigerant undergoes a state shift as a result of compression and pressurization.

If a particle moving in a circular path of radius 5 m has a velocity function v = 4t2 m/s, what is the magnitude of its total ac
rjkz [21]

Answer:

8.62m/s²

Explanation:

the particle is experiencing both translational and circular motion

v=4t²

a_{t}=\frac{dv}{dt}=8t

at t=1s, \frac{dv}{dt}=8(1)=8m/s²

a_{c} = \frac{v^{2} }{r}

at t=1, v= 4(1)² = 4m/s

a_{c}=4²/5

a_{c}=3.2m/s²

∴ magnitude of total acceleration, a

a=\sqrt{a_{t} ^{2} + a_{c} {2} }

a=\sqrt{8^{2} +3.2^{2}  }

a=\sqrt{64+10.24}

a=\sqrt{74.24}

a=8.62m/s²

shepuryov [24]

Problem-Solving Tip: When cutting an FBD through an axial member, assume that the internal force is tension and draw the force arrow directed away from the cut surface. If the computed internal force value turns out to be a positive number, then the assumption of tension is confirmed.

In normal operation, a paper mill generates excess steam at 20 bar and 400◦C. It is planned to use this steam as the feed to a t
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The maximum power that can be generated is 127.788 kW

Explanation:

Using the steam table

Enthalpy at 20 bar = 2799 kJ/kg

Enthalpy at 2 bar = 2707 kJ/kg

Change in enthalpy = 2799 - 2707 = 92 kJ/kg

Mass flow rate of steam = 5000 kg/hr = 5000 kJ/hr × 1 hr/3600 s = 1.389 kg/s

Maximum power generated = change in enthalpy × mass flow rate = 92 kJ/kg × 1.389 kg/s = 127.788 kJ/s = 127.788 kW

A 1000 W iron utilizes a resistance wire which is 20 inches long and has a diameter of 0.08 inches. Determine the rate of heat g
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The rate of heat generation in the wire per unit volume is 5.79×10^7 Btu/hrft^3

Heat flux is 9.67×10^7 Btu/hrft^2

Explanation:

Rate of heat generation = 1000 W = 1000/0.29307 = 3412.15 Btu/hr

Area (A) = πD^2/4

Diameter (D) = 0.08 inches = 0.08 in × 3.2808 ft/39.37 in = 0.0067 ft

A = 3.142×0.0067^2/4 = 3.53×10^-5 ft^2

Volume (V) = A × Length

L = 20 inches = 20 in × 3.2808 ft/39.37 in = 1.67 ft

V = 3.53×10^-5 × 1.67 = 5.8951×10^-5 ft^3

Rate of heat generation in the wire per unit volume = 3412.15 Btu/hr ÷ 5.8951×10^-5 ft^3 = 5.79×10^7 Btu/hrft^3

Heat flux = 3412.15 Btu/hr ÷ 3.53×10^-5 ft^2 = 9.67×10^7 Btu/hrft^2
