A Carnot heat engine receives heat from a reservoir at 900oC at a rate of 800 kJ/min and rejects the waste heat to the ambient a

ir at 27oC. The entire work output of the heat engine is used to drive a refrigerator that removes heat from the refrigerated space at -5oC and transfers it to the same ambient air at 27oC. Determine (a) the maximum rate of heat removal from the refrigerated space and (b) the total rate of heat rejection to the ambient air.

Answer:

a) \dot Q_{L} = 4987.776\,\frac{kJ}{min}, b) \dot Q = 5787.776\,\frac{kJ}{min}

Explanation:

a) The efficiency of the Carnot heat engine is:

\eta_{th} = \left(1-\frac{T_{L}}{T_{H}} \right)\times 100\,\%

\eta_{th} = \left(1-\frac{300.15\,K}{1173.15\,K} \right)\times 100\,\%

\eta_{th} = 74.415\,\%

The power output used to drive the refrigerator is:

\dot W = (0.744)\cdot \left(800\,\frac{kJ}{min}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{1}{60}\,\frac{min}{s} \right)

\dot W = 9.92\,kW

The coefficient of performance of the refrigerator is:

COP_{R} = \frac{T_{L}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}

COP_{R} = \frac{268.15\,K}{300.15\,K-268.15\,K}

COP_{R} = 8.380

The heat removal from the refrigerated space is:

\dot Q_{L} = \dot W\cdot COP_{R}

\dot Q_{L} = (9.92\,kW)\cdot \left(60\,\frac{s}{min} \right)\cdot (8.380)

\dot Q_{L} = 4987.776\,\frac{kJ}{min}

b) The heat rejected from the Carnot heat engine to the ambient air is:

\dot Q_{L} = (1-0.744)\cdot \left(800\,\frac{kJ}{min} \right)

\dot Q_{L} = 204.8\,\frac{kJ}{min}

Now, the heat rejected from the refrigerator to the ambient air is:

\dot Q_{H} = \dot W + \dot Q_{L}

\dot Q_{H} = (9.92\,kW)\cdot (60\,\frac{s}{min} ) + 4987.776\,\frac{kJ}{min}

\dot Q_{H} = 5582.976\,\frac{kJ}{min}

Finally, the total rate of heat rejection to the ambient air is:

\dot Q = 5582.976\,\frac{kJ}{min} + 204.8\,\frac{kJ}{min}

\dot Q = 5787.776\,\frac{kJ}{min}

simple Brayton cycle using air as the working fluid has a pressure ratio of 10. The minimum and maximum temperatures in the cycl
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

a) 764.45K

b) 210.48 kJ/kg

c) 30.14%

Explanation:

pressure ratio = 10

minimum temperature = 295 k

maximum temperature = 1240 k

isentropic efficiency for compressor = 83%

Isentropic efficiency for turbine = 87%

<u>a) Air temperature at turbine exit </u>

we can achieve this by interpolating for enthalpy

h4 = 783.05 kJ/kg ( calculated in the background ) at state 4 using Table A-17  for  Ideal gas properties of air

T4 ( temperature at Turbine exit ) = 760 + ( 780 - 760 ) (\frac{783.05-778.18}{800.13-778.18} ) = 764.45K

<u>b) The net work output </u>

first we determine the actual work input to compressor

Wc = h2 - h1  ( calculated values )

     = 626.57 - 295.17 =  331.4 kJ/kg

next determine the actual work done by Turbine

Wt = h3 - h4  ( calculated values )

     = 1324.93 - 783.05 = 541.88 kJ/kg

finally determine the network output of the cycle

Wnet = Wt - Wc

         = 541.88 - 331.4  = 210.48 kJ/kg

<u>c) determine thermal efficiency </u>

лth = Wnet / qin  ------ ( 1 )

where ; qin = h3 - h2

<em>equation 1 becomes </em>

лth = Wnet / ( h3 - h2 )

      = 210.48 / ( 1324.93 - 626.57 )

      = 0.3014  =  30.14%

Andreas93 [3]

A lot of manufacturer often uses 5G machines. How these capabilities could help improve safety of the operators is that it does includes an emergency switch for the operator so that one can manually shut off when needed.

<h3>Edge computing with 5G</h3>

  • The edge computing along with 5G network and IoT devices can help put together  different safety features and limitations and on can use them to known the unsafe action and also data can be communicated.

Edge computing when use with 5G produces good opportunities in all industry. It is known to help bring computation and data storage close to where data is been produced and it enable good data control, reduced costs, etc.

What is the composition of the two phases that form when a stream of 40% A, 39% B, and 21% C separates into two phases? Label th
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

vapor fraction = 0.4 and 0.08

Explanation:

At reasonably high temperatures, a mixture will exist in the form of a sub cooled liquid. Between these extremes, the mixture exists in a two phrase region where it is a vapor liquid equilibrium. From a vapor-liquid phase diagram, a mixture of 40% A, 39% B, and 21% C separates to give the vapor compositions of 0.4 and 0.08.

A reciprocating compressor takes a compresses it to 5 bar. Assuming that the compression is reversible and has an index, k, of 1
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

final temperature is 424.8 K

so correct option is e 424.8 K

Explanation:

given data

pressure p1 = 1 bar

pressure p2 = 5 bar

index k = 1.3

temperature t1 = 20°C = 293 k

to find out

final temperature  t2

solution

we have given compression is reversible and has an index k

so we can say temperature is

\frac{t2}{t1}= [\frac{p2}{p1}]^{\frac{k-1}{k} }  ...........1

put here all these value and we get t2

\frac{t2}{293}= [\frac{5}{1}]^{\frac{1.3-1}{1.3} }

t2 = 424.8

final temperature is 424.8 K

so correct option is e
