A Carnot refrigeration cycle absorbs heat at -12 °C and rejects it at 40 °C. a)-Calculate the coefficient of performance of this

refrigeration cycle b)-If the cycle is absorbing 15 kW at the -12C temperature, how much power is required? c)-If a Carnot heat pump operates between the same temperatures as the above refrigeration cycle, determine the COP of heat pump? d)-What is the rate of heat rejection at the 40°C temperature if the heat pump absorbs 15 kw at the -12 C temperature?

Answer:

a)COP=5.01

b)W_{in}=2.998 KW

c)COP=6.01

d)Q_R=17.99 KW

Explanation:

Given

T_L= -12°C,T_H=40°C

For refrigeration

  We know that Carnot cycle is an ideal cycle that have all reversible process.

So COP of refrigeration is given as follows

COP=\dfrac{T_L}{T_H-T_L}  ,T in Kelvin.

COP=\dfrac{261}{313-261}

a)COP=5.01

Given that refrigeration effect= 15 KW

We know that  COP=\dfrac{RE}{W_{in}}

RE is the refrigeration effect

So

5.01=\dfrac{15}{W_{in}}

b)W_{in}=2.998 KW

For heat pump

So COP of heat pump is given as follows

COP=\dfrac{T_h}{T_H-T_L}  ,T in Kelvin.

COP=\dfrac{313}{313-261}

c)COP=6.01

In heat pump

Heat rejection at high temperature=heat absorb at  low temperature+work in put

Q_R=Q_A+W_{in}

Given that Q_A=15KW

We know that  COP=\dfrac{Q_R}{W_{in}}

COP=\dfrac{Q_R}{Q_R-Q_A}

6.01=\dfrac{Q_R}{Q_R-15}

d)Q_R=17.99 KW

g A steel water pipe has an inner diameter of 12 in. and a wall thickness of 0.25 in. Determine the longitudinal and hoop stress
zvonat [6]

Answer:

a) \mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 4800 psi}

     \mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 0}

b)\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 6000 psi}

  \mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 3000 psi}

Explanation:

Given that:

diameter d = 12 in

thickness t = 0.25 in

the radius = d/2 = 12 / 2 = 6 in

r/t = 6/0.25 = 24

24 > 10

Using the  thin wall cylinder formula;

The valve A is opened and the flowing water has a pressure P of 200 psi.

So;

\sigma_{hoop} = \sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t}

\sigma_{long} = \sigma _2 = 0

\sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t} \\ \\ \sigma _ 1 = \frac{200(12)}{2(0.25)}

\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 4800 psi}

b)The valve A is closed and the water pressure P is 250 psi.

where P = 250 psi

\sigma_{hoop} = \sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t}

\sigma_{long} = \sigma _2 = \frac{Pd}{4t}

\sigma _ 1 = \frac{Pd}{2t} \\ \\ \sigma _ 1 = \frac{250*(12)}{2(0.25)}

\mathbf{\sigma _ 1 = 6000 psi}

\sigma _2 = \frac{Pd}{4t} \\ \\  \sigma _2 = \frac{250(12)}{4(0.25)}

\mathbf{ \sigma _2 = 3000 psi}
