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

Answer:

  • 3.013
  • 1.124

Explanation:

W = Q2 - Q1 ----- equation 1

W = work done

Q2 = final energy

Q1 = initial energy

A) calculate the COP of the heat pump

COP = \frac{Q2}{W}

from equation 1

Q2 = Q1 + W = 15 + 7.45 = 22.45 KW

therefore COP = \frac{22.45}{7.45} = 3.013

B) COP when cycle is reversed

COP = \frac{Q1}{W}

from equation 1

Q1 + W = Q2 ------ equation 2

Q2 = 15 Btu/s = 15 * 1.055 = 15.825 KW therefore from equation 2

Q1 = 8.375 KW

COP = \frac{8.375}{7.45}  = 1.124

choli [55]

Answer:

Plain carbon steel has no or trace external elements while alloy steel has high amount of other elements.

Explanation:

Plain carbon steel has no or trace amount of other elements while alloy steel has high amount of other elements in their composition.

The presence of other elements in alloy steel improvise several physical properties of the steel while plain carbon steel has the basic properties.

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

vapor fraction = 0.4 and 0.08

Explanation:

At reasonably high temperatures, a mixture will exist in the form of a sub cooled liquid. Between these extremes, the mixture exists in a two phrase region where it is a vapor liquid equilibrium. From a vapor-liquid phase diagram, a mixture of 40% A, 39% B, and 21% C separates to give the vapor compositions of 0.4 and 0.08.

An amplifier with 40 dB of small-signal, open-circuit voltage gain, an input resistance of 1 MO, and an output resistance of 100
Vanyuwa [196]

convert 40db to standard gain

AL=10^40/20=100

calculate total voltage gain

=AL×RL/RL+Ri

=83.33

38.41 DB

calculate power

Pi=Vi^2/Ri Po=Vo^2/RL

power gain= Po/Pi

=13.90×10^6
