Answer:

The temperature drop is 61.1 °C

The final specific volume of the refrigerant is 1.236 m^3/kg

Explanation:

Initial pressure of refrigerant = 800 kPa = 800/100 = 8 bar

Final pressure of refrigerant = 140 kPa = 140/100 = 1.4 bar

From steam table

At 8 bar, initial saturated temperature is 170.4 °C

At 1.4 bar, final saturated temperature is 109.3 °C

Temperature drop = initial saturated temperature - final saturated temperature = 170.4 - 109.3 = 61.1 °C

Also, from steam table

At 1.4 bar, specific volume is 1.236 m^3/kg

Final specific volume of the refrigerant is 1.236 m^3/kg

Π/4 = 1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9 ...
leva [86]

Answer: Pi= 4 - 4/3 + 4/5 - 4/7 + 4/9 ...

Explanation:

Is the same as the example,

If Π/4 = 1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9 ...

Then

(Π/4 )*4= 4*(1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9 ...)

Π =4 - 4/3 + 4/5 - 4/7 + 4/9 ...

The way to write this is

Sum(from n=0 to n=inf) of (-1)^n 4/(2n+1)

The temperature of a system rises by 10 °C during a heating process. Express the rise in temperature of K, R, and °F.
Lorico [155]

Explanation:

Given T = 10 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T = (10 + 273.15) K = 283.15 K

<u>T = 283.15 K </u>

The conversion of T( °C) to T(F) is shown below:

T (°F) = (T (°C) × 9/5) + 32  

So,

T (°F) = (10 × 9/5) + 32 = 50 °F

<u>T = 50 °F</u>

The conversion of T( °C) to T(R) is shown below:

T (R) = (T (°C) × 9/5) + 491.67

So,

T (R) = (10 × 9/5) + 491.67 = 509.67 R

<u>T = 509.67 R</u>

3. A 4-m × 5-m × 7-m room is heated by the radiator of a steam-heating system. The steam radiator transfers heat at a rate of 10
Natali [406]

Answer:

14.52 minutes

<u>OR</u>

14 minutes and 31 seconds

Explanation:

Let's first start by mentioning the specific heat of air at constant volume. We consider constant volume and NOT constant pressure because the volume of the room remains constant while pressure may vary.

Specific heat at constant volume at 27°C = 0.718 kJ/kg*K

Initial temperature of room (in kelvin) = 283.15 K

Final temperature (required) of room = 293.15 K

Mass of air in room= volume * density= (4 * 5 * 7) * (1.204 kg/m3) = 168.56kg

Heat required at constant volume: 0.718 * (change in temp) * (mass of air)

Heat required = 0.718 * (293.15 - 283.15) * (168.56) = 1,210.26 kJ

Time taken for temperature rise: heat required / (rate of heat change)

Where rate of heat change = 10000 - 5000 = 5000 kJ/hr

Time taken = 1210.26 / 5000 = 0.24205 hours

Converted to minutes = 0.24205 * 60 = 14.52 minutes
