Refrigerant-134a at 700 kPa, 70°C, and 7.2 kg/min is cooled by water in a condenser until it exists as a saturated liquid at the

same pressure. The cooling water enters the condenser at 300 kPa and 15°C and leaves at 25°C at the same pressure. Determine the mass flow rate of the cooling water required to cool the refrigerant. The enthalpies of R-134a at the inlet and exit states are 308.34 kJ/kg and 88.82 kJ/kg. The enthalpies of compressed water at both states are 62.98 kJ/kg and 104.83 kJ/kg.

Answer:

The mass flow rate of cooling water required to cool the refrigerant is 123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}.

Explanation:

A condenser is a heat exchanger used to cool working fluid (Refrigerant 134a) at the expense of cooling fluid (water), which works usually at steady state. Let suppose that there is no heat interactions between condenser and surroundings.The condenser is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics, which states:

\dot Q_{ref} - \dot Q_{w} = 0

\dot Q_{ref} = \dot Q_{w}

\dot m_{ref}\cdot (h_{ref, in} - h_{ref,out}) = \dot m_{w}\cdot (h_{w, out} - h_{w,in})

The mass flow rate of the cooling water is now cleared:

\dot m_{w} = \dot m_{ref }\cdot \frac{h_{ref,in}-h_{ref,out}}{h_{w,out}-h_{w,in}}

Given that h_{ref,in} = 808.34\,\frac{kJ}{kg}, h_{ref, out} = 88.82\,\frac{kJ}{kg}, h_{w,out} = 104.83\,\frac{kJ}{kg} and h_{w,in} = 62.98\,\frac{kJ}{kg}, the mass flow of the cooling water is:

\dot m_{w} = \left(7.2\,\frac{kg}{min} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{808.34\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-88.82\,\frac{kJ}{kg} }{104.83\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-62.98\,\frac{kJ}{kg} } \right)

\dot m_{w} = 123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}

The mass flow rate of cooling water required to cool the refrigerant is 123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}.

The sliders A and B are connected by a light rigid bar of length l = 20 in. and move with negligible friction in the slots, both
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

- The Length of the rigid bar L = 20 in

- The position of slider a, x_a = 16 in

- The position of slider b, y_b

- The velocity of slider a, v_a = 3 ft /s

- The velocity of slider b, v_b

- The acceleration of slider a, a_a

- The acceleration of slider b, a_b

Find:

-Determine the acceleration of each slider and the force in the bar at this instant.

Solution:

- The relationship between the length L of the rod and the positions x_a and x_b of sliders A & B is as follows:

                               L^2 = x_a^2 + y_b^2   ....... 1

                               y_b = sqrt( 20^2 - 16^2 )

                               y_b = 12

- The velocity expression can derived by taking a derivation of Eq 1 with respect to time t:

                               0 = 2*x_a*v_a + 2*y_b*v_b

                               0 = x_a*v_a + y_b*v_b   ..... 2

                               0 = 16*36 + 12*v_b

                               v_b = - 48 in /s = -4 ft/s

- Similarly, the acceleration expression can be derived by taking a derivative of Eq 2 with respect to time t:

                               0 = v_a^2 + x_a*a_a + v_b^2 + y_b*a_b

                               0 = 9 + 4*a_a/3 + 16 + a_b

                               4*a_a/3 + a_b = -25

                               4*a_a + 3*a_b = -75  .... 3

- Use dynamics on each slider. For Slider A, Apply Newton's second law of motion in x direction:

                               F_x = m_a*a_a

                               P - R_r*16/20 = m_a*a_a

                               

- For Slider B, Apply Newton's second law of motion in y direction:

                               F_y = m_b*a_b

                               - R_r*12/20 = m_b*a_b

- Combine the two dynamic equations:

                               P - 4*m_b*a_b / 3 = m_a*a_a

                               3P = 3*m_a*a_a + 4*m_b*a_b  ... 4

- Where,                  P = Is the force acting on slider A

                               P , m_a and m_b are known quantities but not given in question. We are to solve Eq 3 and Eq 4 simultaneously for a_a and a_b.
