A heat pump and a refrigerator are operating between the same two thermal reservoirs. Which one has a higher COP?

Engineering
1 answer:
Mkey [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Heat pump

Explanation:

COP:

 As we know that COP can be defines as the ratio of desired effect to the work in put.

The desired effect can be different for heat pump our desired effect to heat the space and for refrigeration our desired effect is cooled the space.

So

COP_{pump}=\dfrac{T_H}{T_H-T_L}

COP_{refri}=\dfrac{T_L}{T_H-T_L}

When heat pump and refrigerator are operating with same temperature limits then from expression we can say that

COP of heat pump = 1 + COP of refrigeration.

- Viscoelastic stress relaxation
My name is Ann [436]

Explanation:

The correct answers to the fill in the blanks would be;

1. Viscoelastic stress relaxation refers to scenarios for which the stress applied to a polymer must decay over time in order to maintain a constant strain. Otherwise, over time, the polymer chains will slip and slide past one another in response to a constant applied load and the strain will increase (in magnitude).

2. Viscoelastic creep refers to scenarios for which a polymer will permanently flow over time in response a constant applied stress.

The polymer whose properties have been mentioned above is commonly known as Kevlar.

It is mostly used in high-strength fabrics and its properties are because of several hydrogen bonds between polymer molecules.

A specimen of commercially pure copper has a strength of 240 MPa. Estimate its average grain diameter using the Hall-Petch equat
romanna [79]

Answer:

3.115× 10^{-3} meter

Explanation:

hall-petch constant for copper is given by

      S_0=25 MPa

      k=0.12 for copper

now according to hall-petch equation

S_Y=S_0 +\frac{K}{\sqrt{D}}

240=25+\frac{0.12}{\sqrt{D}}

D=3.115× 10^{-3} meter

so the grain diameter using the hall-petch equation=3.115×  10^{-3} meter

The Stefan-Boltzmann law can be employed to estimate the rate of radiation of energy H from a surface, as in
Mazyrski [523]

Explanation:

A.

H = Aeσ^4

Using the stefan Boltzmann law

When we differentiate

dH/dT = 4AeσT³

dH/dT = 4(0.15)(0.9)(5.67)(10^-8)(650)³

= 8.4085

Exact error = 8.4085x20

= 168.17

H(650) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10^-8)(650)⁴

= 1366.376watts

B.

Verifying values

H(T+ΔT) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10)^-8(670)⁴

= 1542.468

H(T+ΔT) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10^-8)(630)⁴

= 1205.8104

Error = 1542.468-1205.8104/2

= 168.329

ΔT = 40

H(T+ΔT) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10)^-8(690)⁴

= 1735.05

H(T-ΔT) = 0.15(0.9)(5.67)(10^-8)(610)⁴

= 1735.05-1059.83/2

= 675.22/2

= 337.61

A triangular plate with a base 5 ft and altitude 3 ft is submerged vertically in water. If the base is in the surface of water,
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Hydrostatic force = 41168 N

Explanation:

Complete question

A triangular plate with a base 5 ft and altitude 3 ft is submerged vertically in water  so that the top is 4 ft below the surface. If the base is in the surface of water, find the force against onr side of the plate. Express the hydrostatic force against one side of the plate as an integral and evaluate it. (Recall that the weight density of water is 62.5 lb/ft3.)

Let "x" be the side length submerged in water.

Then

w(x)/base = (4+3-x)/altitude

w(x)/5 = (4+3-x)/3

w(x) = 5* (7-x)/3

Hydrostatic force = 62.5 integration of  x * 4 * (10-x)/3 with limits from 4 to 7

HF = integration of 40x - 4x^2/3

HF = 20x^2 - 4x^3/9 with limit 4 to 7

HF = (20*7^2 - 4*7^(3/9))- (20*4^2 - 4*4^(3/9))

HF = 658.69 N *62.5 = 41168 N

A second inventor was driving down the highway in her Prius one day with her hand out the window. She happened to be driving thr
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Explanation:

It wouldn't work because the wind energy she would be collecting would actually come from the car engine.

The relative wind velocity observed from a moving vehicle is the sum of the actual wind velocity and the velovity of the vehicle.

u' = u + v

While running a car will generate a rather high wind velocity, and increase the power generated by a wind turbine, the turbine would only be able to convert part of the wind energy into electricity while adding a lot of drag. In the end, it would generate less energy that what the drag casuses the car to waste to move the turbine.

Regenerative braking uses an electric generator connected to the wheel axle to recover part of the kinetic energy eliminated when one brakes the vehicle. Normal brakes dissipate this energy as heat, a regenerative brake uses it to recharge a batttery. Note that is is a fraction of the energy that is recovered, not all of it.

A "regenerative accelerator" makes no sense. Braking is taking kinetic energy out of the vehicle, while accelerating is adding kinetic energy to it. Cars accelerate using the power from their engines.
