What is the Principle of Entropy Increase?

Engineering

Hunter-Best [27]3 years ago

7 0

Answer and Explanation:

The increase in entropy principle is defined as the process in which the total change in entropy of system with its adiabatic surroundings is always positive or equal to zero. The increase in entropy mostly takes place when a solid becomes liquid because randomness is increases when solid becomes liquid so entropy is also increases.

example of increase of entropy is when solid burns and become ash, ice melting

In using the drag coefficient care needs to be taken to use the correct area when determining the drag force. What is a typical

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that Drag force $F_D$

$F_D=\dfrac{1}{2}C_D\rho AV^2$

Where

$C_D$ is the drag force constant.

A is the projected area.

V is the velocity.

ρ is the density of fluid.

Form the above expression of drag force we can say that drag force depends on the area .So We should need to take care of correct are before finding drag force on body.

Example:

When we place our hand out of the window in a moving car ,we feel a force in the opposite direction and feel like some one trying to pull our hand .This pulling force is nothing but it is drag force.

Consider a Carnot heat pump cycle executed in a steady-flow system in the saturated mixture region using R-134a flowing at a rat

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

7.15

Explanation:

Firstly, the COP of such heat pump must be measured that is,

$COP_{HP}=\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_L}$

Therefore, the temperature relationship, $T_H=1.15\;T_L$

Then, we should apply the values in the COP.

$=\frac{1.15\;T_L}{1.15-1}$

$=7.67$

The number of heat rejected by the heat pump must then be calculated.

$Q_H=COP_{HP}\times W_{nst}$

$=7.67\times5=38.35$

We must then calculate the refrigerant mass flow rate.

$m=0.264\;kg/s$

$q_H=\frac{Q_H}{m}$

$=\frac{38.35}{0.264}=145.27$

The $h_g$ value is 145.27 and therefore the hot reservoir temperature is 64° C.

The pressure at 64 ° C is thus 1849.36 kPa by interpolation.

And, the lowest reservoir temperature must be calculated.

$T_L=\frac{T_H}{1.15}$

$=\frac{64+273}{1.15}=293.04$

$=19.89\°C$

the lowest reservoir temperature = 258.703 kpa

So, the pressure ratio should be = 7.15
