Answer:

option B

Explanation:

given,

heating tap water from 16° C to 50° C

at the average rate of 0.2 kg/min

the COP of this heat pump is 2.8

power output = ?

$COP = \dfrac{Q_H}{W_{in}}\\W_{in} = \dfrac{Q_H}{COP}\\W_{in} = \dfrac{\dfrac{0.2}{60}\times 4.18\times (50-16)}{2.8}\\W_{in} = 0.169$

the required power input is 0.169 kW or 0.17 kW

hence, the correct answer is option B

physical properties

$r= 1.05 \frac{kg}{m^{3}}$

$c_p = 1.02 \frac{kJ}{Kg \times K}$

$m= 231 \times 10^{7} \frac{N \times s }{m^2}$

υ = $21.8 \times 10^{6} \frac{m^2}{s}$

$k = 32.5 \times 10^{3} \frac{W}{m \times K}$

$\alpha = 30.1 \times 10^{6} \frac{m^{2}}{s}$

$Pr = 0.725$

Apart from these other data arr given below,

$v= 3 \frac{m}{s} \\ p= 1 atm \\ L_c = 1.5m \\T_g= 220 C \\ T_s = 80 C$

To find the local convection heat transfer coefficient at 1 m from the leading edge, we use correlation used for laminar flow over flat plate,

$Nu = \frac{ h \times L }{k} = 0.332 \times (Re^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (Pr^{\frac{1}{3} })$

where h= Average heat transfer coefficient

L= Length of a plate

k= Thermal Conductivity of carbon dioxide

Re = Reynold's Number

Pr = Prandtle Number

(a) Convection heat transfer coefficient at 1 m from the leading edge

is referred as local convection heat transfer coefficient.

To find convection heat transfer coefficient at 1 m from leading edge,

$Nu = \frac{ h_local \times L }{k} = 0.332 \times (Re^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (Pr^{\frac{1}{3} })$

Here, first we have to find Re and Pr,

$Re = \frac{r \times v \times L}{m}$

$Re = \frac{1.0594 \times 3 \times 1}{231 \times 10^{7}}$

$Re = 20.63 \times 10^{-10}$

Pr number is take from physical property data and Pr is 0.725.

Putting value of Re and Pr in main equation,

we get

$Nu = \frac{ h_local \times 1 }{32.5 \times 10^{3}} = 0.332 \times ( (20.63 \times 10^{-10})^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (0.725^{\frac{1}{3} })$

$h_local = 32.5 \times 10^{3} \times 0.332 \times ( (20.63 \times 10^{-10})^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (0.725^{\frac{1}{3} })$

$h_local = 0.44 \frac{W}{m^{2} \times K}$

(b) To find average convection heat transfer coefficient,

it can be find out as case (a), only difference is that instead of L=1 m, L=1.5 m would come,

Therefore,

$Nu = \frac{ h \times 1.5 }{32.5 \times 10^{3}} = 0.332 \times ( (20.63 \times 10^{-10})^{\frac{1}{2} }) \times (0.725^{\frac{1}{3} })$

Finally,

$h = \frac{0.44}{1.5}$

$h = 0.293 \frac{W}{m^{2} \times K}$

(C) Total heat flux transfer to the plate is found out by,

$Q = h \times (T_g - T_s)$

$Q = 0.293 \times (220-80) \\ Q= 0.293 \times 140 \\ Q= 61.6 KJ$

Anni [7]

Answer:

a) The expression for electrical current: i = -0.134*e^(-10,000*t) + 0.174*e^(-40,000*t) A

The expression for voltage: v = 26.8*e^(-10,000*t) - 139.2*e^(-40,000*t) V

b) For t<=0 the inductor is storing energy and for t > 0 the inductor is delivering energy.

Explanation:

The question text is corrupted. I found the complete question on the web and it goes as follow:

The current in a 20 mH inductor is known to be: i = 40 mA at t<=0 and i = A1*e^(-10,000*t) + A2*e^(-40,000*t) A at t>0. The voltage across the inductor (passive sign convention) is -68 V at t = 0.

a. Find the numerical expressions for i and v for t>0.

b. Specify the time intervals when the inductor is storing energy and is delivering energy.

A inductor stores energy in the form of a magnetic field, it behaves in a way that oposes sudden changes in the electric current that flows through it, therefore at moment just after t = 0, that for convenience we'll call t = 0+, the current should be the same as t=0, so:

i = A1*e^(-10,000*(0)) + A2*e^(-40,000*(0))

40*10^(-3) = A1*e^(-10,000*0) + A2*e^(-40,000*0)

40*10^(-3) = (A1)*1 + (A2)*1

40*10^(-3) = A1 + A2

A1 + A2 = 40*10^(-3)

Since we have two variables (A1 and A2) we need another equation to be able to solve for both. For that reason we will use the voltage expression for a inductor, that is:

V = L*di/dt

We have the voltage drop across the inductor at t=0 and we know that the current at t=0 and the following moments after that should be equal, so we can use the current equation for t > 0 to find the derivative on that point, so:

di/dt = d(A1*e^(-10,000*t) + A2*e^(-40,000*t))/dt

di/dt = [d(-10,000*t)/dt]*A1*e^(-10,000*t) + [d(-40,000*t)/dt]*A2*e^(-40,000*t)

di/dt = -10,000*A1*e^(-10,000*t) -40,000*A2*e^(-40,000*t)

By applying t = 0 to this expression we have:

di/dt (at t = 0) = -10,000*A1*e^(-10,000*0) - 40,000*A2*e^(-40,000*0)

di/dt (at t = 0) = -10,000*A1*e^0 - 40,000*A2*e^0

di/dt (at t = 0) = -10,000*A1- 40,000*A2

We can now use the voltage equation for the inductor at t=0, that is:

v = L di/dt (at t=0)

68 = [20*10^(-3)]*(-10,000*A1 - 40,000*A2)

68 = -400*A1 -800*A2

-400*A1 - 800*A2 = 68

We now have a system with two equations and two variable, therefore we can solve it for both:

A1 + A2 = 40*10^(-3)

-400*A1 - 800*A2 = 68

Using the first equation we have:

A1 = 40*10^(-3) - A2

We can apply this to the second equation to solve for A2:

-400*[40*10^(-3) - A2] - 800*A2 = 68

-1.6 + 400*A2 - 800*A2 = 68

-1.6 -400*A2 = 68

-400*A2 = 68 + 1.6

A2 = 69.6/400 = 0.174

We use this value of A2 to calculate A1:

A1 = 40*10^(-3) - 0.174 = -0.134

Applying these values on the expression we have the equations for both the current and tension on the inductor:

i = -0.134*e^(-10,000*t) + 0.174*e^(-40,000*t) A

v = [20*10^(-3)]*[-10,000*(-0.134)*e^(-10,000*t) -40,000*(0.174)*e^(-40,000*t)]

v = [20*10^(-3)]*[1340*e^(-10,000*t) - 6960*e^(-40,000*t)]

v = 26.8*e^(-10,000*t) - 139.2*e^(-40,000*t) V

b) The question states that the current for the inductor at t > 0 is a exponential powered by negative numbers it is expected that its current will reach 0 at t = infinity. So, from t =0 to t = infinity the inductor is delivering energy. Since at time t = 0 the inductor already has a current flow of 40 mA and a voltage, we can assume it already had energy stored, therefore for t<0 it is storing energy.
