What is the maximal coefficient of performance of a refrigerator which cools down 10 kg of water (and then ice) to -6C. Upper he

at source of this refrigerator is surroundings at constant temperature 21C. Initially water is in equilibrium with surroundings. What is maximal coefficient of performance of heat pump operating in the same configuration. Specific heat of water, specific heat of ice, and latent heat of fusion are equal to 4.19KJ/kg/K, 2.1KJ/kg/K and 335 KJ/kg, respectively.

Given:

Temperature of water, T_{1} = -6^{\circ}C =273 +(-6) =267 K

Temperature surrounding refrigerator, T_{2} = 21^{\circ}C =273 + 21 =294 K

Specific heat given for water, C_{w} = 4.19 KJ/kg/K

Specific heat given for ice, C_{ice} = 2.1 KJ/kg/K

Latent heat of fusion,  L_{fusion} = 335KJ/kg

Solution:

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for refrigerator is given by:

Max COP_{refrigerator} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}

= \frac{267}{294 - 267} = 9.89

Coefficient of Performance (COP) for heat pump is given by:

Max COP_{heat pump} = \frac{T_{1}}{T_{2} - T_{1}}\frac{294}{294 - 267} = 10.89

compressors, the gas is often cooled while being compressed to reduce the power consumed by the compressor. explain how cooling
ASHA 777 [7]

The amount of work done by steady flow devices varies with the particular gas volume. The kinetic energy of gas particles decreases during cooling.

When the gas is subjected to intermediate cooling during compression, the gas specific volume is reduced, which lowers the compressor's power consumption. Compression is less adiabatic and more isothermal because the compressed gas must be cooled between stages since compression produces heat. The system's thermodynamic cycle's cold sink temperature is lowered by cooling the compressor coils. By increasing the temperature difference between the heat source and the cold sink, this improves efficiency.

Design a plate and frame heat exchanger for the following problem:
qwelly [4]

Answer:

See explaination and attachment.

Explanation:

Iteration method is a repetitive method applied until the desired result is achieved.

Let the given equation be f(x) = 0 and the value of x to be determined. By using the Iteration method you can find the roots of the equation. To find the root of the equation first we have to write equation like below

x = pi(x)

Let x=x0 be an initial approximation of the required root α then the first approximation x1 is given by x1 = pi(x0).

Similarly for second, thrid and so on. approximation

x2 = pi(x1)

x3 = pi(x2)

x4 = pi(x3)

xn = pi(xn-1).

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing equation related to the question  

answer : 40.389° , 38.987° , 38° , 39.869° , 40.265°

Explanation:

<u>Determine the friction angle at each depth</u>

attached below is the detailed solution

To calculate the vertical stress = depth * unit weight of sand

also inverse of Tan = Tan^-1

also qc is in Mpa while σ0 is in kPa

Friction angle at each depth

2 meters = 40.389°

3.5 meters  = 38.987°

5 meters = 38.022°

6.5 meters = 39.869°

8 meters = 40.265°
