An electric furnace is to melt 40 kg of aluminium/hour. The initial temperature of aluminium is 32°C. Given that aluminium has s

Answer:

Part a)

P = 13.93 kW

Part b)

R = 8357.6 Cents

Explanation:

Part A)

heat required to melt the aluminium is given by

$Q = ms\Delta T + mL$

here we have

$Q = 40(950)(680 - 32) + 40(450 \times 10^3)$

$Q = 24624 kJ + 18000 kJ$

$Q = 42624 kJ$

Since this is the amount of aluminium per hour

so power required to melt is given by

$P = \frac{Q}{t}$

$P = \frac{42624}{3600} kW$

$P = 11.84 kW$

Since the efficiency is 85% so actual power required will be

$P = \frac{11.84}{0.85} = 13.93 kW$

Part B)

Total energy consumed by the furnace for 30 hours

$Energy = power \times time$

$Energy = 13.93 kW\times 30 h$

$Energy = 417.9 kWh$

now the total cost of energy consumption is given as

$R = P \times 20 \frac{Cents}{kWh}$

$R = 417.9 kWh\times 20 \frac{cents}{kWh}$

$R = 8357.6 Cents$
