An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle that uses refrigerant-134a as its working fluid maintains a condenser at 800 kPa

and an evaporator at -20°C. Determine this system’s COP and the amount of power required to service a 150 kW cooling load. (Take the required values from saturated refrigerant-134a tables.)

Answer:

COP = 3.828

W' = 39.18 Kw

Explanation:

From the table A-11 i attached, we can find the entropy for the state 1 at -20°C.

h1 = 238.43 KJ/Kg

s1 = 0.94575 KJ/Kg.K

From table A-12 attached we can do the same for states 3 and 4 but just enthalpy at 800 KPa.

h3 = h4 = hf = 95.47 KJ/Kg

For state 2, we can calculate the enthalpy from table A-13 attached using interpolation at 800 KPa and the condition s2 = s1. We have;

h2 = 275.75 KJ/Kg

The power would be determined from the energy balance in state 1-2 where the mass flow rate will be expressed through the energy balance in state 4-1.

W' = m'(h2 - h1)

W' = Q'_L((h2 - h1)/(h1 - h4))

Where Q'_L = 150 kW

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

W' = 150((275.75 - 238.43)/(238.43 - 95.47))

W' = 39.18 Kw

Formula foe COP is;

COP = Q'_L/W'

COP = 150/39.18

COP = 3.828

How did engineers help to create a ceiling fan
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The electric ceiling fan was invented in 1882 by engineer and inventor, Philip Diehl. He had earlier invented an electric sewing machine and adapted the motor from this invention to create the ceiling fan. He called his invention the “Diehl Electric Fan” and it was such a success that he soon had many other people competing with him.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The correct answer is 'velocity'of liquid flowing out of an orifice is proportional to the square root of the 'height'  of liquid above the center of the orifice.

Explanation:

Torricelli's theorem states that

v_{exit}=\sqrt{2gh}

where

v_{exit} is the velocity with which the fluid leaves orifice

h is the head under which the flow occurs.

Thus we can compare the given options to arrive at the correct answer

Velocity is proportional to square root of head under which the flow occurs.
