A heat engine that receives heat from a furnace at 1200°C and rejects waste heat to a river at 20°C has a thermal efficiency of
viktelen [127]

Answer:

second-law efficiency  = 62.42 %

Explanation:

given data

temperature T1 = 1200°C = 1473 K

temperature T2 = 20°C  =  293 K

thermal efficiency η = 50 percent

solution

as we know that thermal efficiency of reversible heat engine between same  temp reservoir

so here

efficiency ( reversible ) η1 = 1 - \frac{T2}{T1}      ............1

efficiency ( reversible ) η1  = 1 - \frac{293}{1473}  

so efficiency ( reversible ) η1  = 0.801

so here second-law efficiency of this power plant is

second-law efficiency = \frac{thernal\ efficiency}{0.801}

second-law efficiency = \frac{50}{0.801}  

second-law efficiency  = 62.42 %

Does the Diesel engine have engine knock or detonation problem? Why?
Luda [366]

Explanation:

Yes Diesel engine have problem of knocking.

We know that knocking is phenomenon in which suddenly large amount of power generates this large amount of power will cause the failure of diesel engine.

Actually when one set of fuel inject inside the cylinder to burn with already compressed air (in general up to 10-15 bar) then this fuel does not burn complete and accumulate inside the cylinder.After that second set of fuel inject inside the cylinder then that one set of fuel burns with second set of fuel and produces large amount of sudden power for engine and causes the breaks in the crank or connecting rod of engine.it leads to damage the engine.

Consider fully developed laminar flow in a circular pipe. If the viscosity of the fluid is reduced by half by heating while the
gladu [14]

Answer:

The pressure drop across the pipe also reduces by half of its initial value if the viscosity of the fluid reduces by half of its original value.

Explanation:

For a fully developed laminar flow in a circular pipe, the flowrate (volumetric) is given by the Hagen-Poiseulle's equation.

Q = π(ΔPR⁴/8μL)

where Q = volumetric flowrate

ΔP = Pressure drop across the pipe

μ = fluid viscosity

L = pipe length

If all the other parameters are kept constant, the pressure drop across the circular pipe is directly proportional to the viscosity of the fluid flowing in the pipe

ΔP = μ(8QL/πR⁴)

ΔP = Kμ

K = (8QL/πR⁴) = constant (for this question)

ΔP = Kμ

K = (ΔP/μ)

So, if the viscosity is halved, the new viscosity (μ₁) will be half of the original viscosity (μ).

μ₁ = (μ/2)

The new pressure drop (ΔP₁) is then

ΔP₁ = Kμ₁ = K(μ/2)

Recall,

K = (ΔP/μ)

ΔP₁ = K(μ/2) = (ΔP/μ) × (μ/2) = (ΔP/2)

Hence, the pressure drop across the pipe also reduces by half of its initial value if the viscosity of the fluid reduces by half of its value.

Hope this Helps!!!

A geothermal heat pump absorbs 15 KJ/s of heat from the Earth 15 m below a house. This heat pump uses a 7.45 kJ/s compressor.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

COP of the heat pump is 3.013

OP of the cycle is  1.124

Explanation:

W = Q₂ - Q₁

Given

a)

Q₂ = Q₁ + W

     = 15 + 7.45

     = 22.45 kw

COP = Q₂ / W = 22.45 / 7.45 = 3.013

b)

Q₂ = 15 x 1.055 = 15.825 kw

therefore,

Q₁ = Q₂ - W

Q₁ = 15.825 - 7.45 = 8.375

∴ COP = Q₁ / W = 8.375 / 7.45 = 1.124
