A completely reversible heat pump produces heat ata rate of 300 kW to warm a house maintained at 24°C. Theexterior air, which is

at 7°C, serves as the source. Calculate the rate of entropy change of the two reservoirs and determine if this heat pump satisfies the second law according to the increase of entropy principle.

Answer:

Change in entropy S = 0.061

Second law of thermodynamics is satisfied since there is an increase in entropy

Explanation:

Heat Q = 300 kW

T2 = 24°C = 297 K

T1 = 7°C = 280 K

Change in entropy =

S = Q(1/T1 - 1/T2)

= 300(1/280 - 1/297) = 0.061

There is a positive increase in entropy so the second law is satisfied.

marin [14]

Answer:

(a) Increases

(b) Increases

(c) Increases

(d) Increases

(e) Decreases

Explanation:

The tensile modulus of a semi-crystalline polymer depends on the given factors as:

(a) Molecular Weight:

It increases with the increase in the molecular weight of the polymer.

(b) Degree of crystallinity:

Tensile strength of the semi-crystalline polymer increases with the increase in the degree of crystallinity of the polymer.

(c) Deformation by drawing:

The deformation by drawing in the polymer results in the finely oriented chain structure of the polymer with the greater inter chain secondary bonding structure resulting in the increase in the tensile strength of the polymer.

(d) Annealing of an undeformed material:

This also results in an increase in the tensile strength of the material.

(e) Annealing of  a drawn material:

A semi crystalline material which is drawn when annealed results in the decreased tensile strength of the material.

Tanya [424]

Answer:

a) 23.89 < -25.84 Ω

b) 31.38 < 25.84 A

c) 0.9323 leading

Explanation:

A) Calculate the load Impedance

current on load side = 0.75 p.u

power factor angle = 25.84

I_{load} = 0.75 < 25.84°

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

<u>B) Find the input current on the primary side in real units </u>

load current in primary = 31.38 < 25.84 A

<u>C) find the input power factor </u>

power factor = 0.9323 leading

<em></em>

<em>attached below is the detailed solution </em>
