An irreversible heat pump and a Carnot heat pump operate between the same two thermal reservoirs. Which heat pump has higher COP

?
Engineering

Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Carnot heat pump

Explanation:

Carnot heat pump is an ideal heat pump in which all processes are reversible and that consume minimum amount of work to and produces maximum amount of heating effect compare to all real engine.And that is why COP of Carnot heat pump is more as compare to real heat pump.

All real heat pump are not perfectly reversible heat pump So this is also called irreversible heat pump .Due to irreversibility the COP of  irreversible heat pump is always  less than the COP of  Carnot heat pump.

A rigid tank having 25 m3 volume initially contains air having a density of 1.25 kg/m3, then more air is supplied to the tank fr
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

\Delta m = 102.25\,kg

Explanation:

The mass inside the rigid tank before the high pressure stream enters is:

m_{o} = \rho_{air}\cdot V_{tank}

m_{o} = (1.25\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (25\,m^{3})

m_{o} = 31.25\,kg

The final mass inside the rigid tank is:

m_{f} = \rho \cdot V_{tank}

m_{f} = (5.34\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (25\,m^{3})

m_{f}= 133.5\,kg

The supplied air mass is:

\Delta m = m_{f}-m_{o}

\Delta m = 133.5\,kg-31.25\,kg

\Delta m = 102.25\,kg

Water is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle. Saturated vapor enters the turbine at 12 MPa, and the condenser pressure i
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

\dot Q_{in} = 372.239\,MW

Explanation:

The water enters to the pump as saturated liquid and equation is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics:

w_{in} + h_{in}- h_{out} = 0

h_{out} = w_{in}+h_{in}

h_{out} = 12\,\frac{kJ}{kg} + 191.81\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

h_{out} = 203.81\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

The boiler heats the water to the state of saturated vapor, whose specific enthalpy is:

h_{out} = 2685.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

The rate of heat transfer in the boiler is:

\dot Q_{in} = \left(150\,\frac{kg}{s}\right)\cdot \left(2685.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-203.81\,\frac{kJ}{kg} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{1\,MW}{1000\,kW} \right)

\dot Q_{in} = 372.239\,MW

Explain how voltage level are interpreted by a digital circuit ​
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

  the state of the circuit is a function of the voltage level. The interpretation is up to the user.

Explanation:

A binary digital circuit adopts one of two states, depending on whether the voltage level is above or below some threshold that depends on the design of the circuit. Within each state, the voltage may have some typical range. When the voltage is near the threshold, the state of the circuit may actually be "indeterminate".

The internal/output voltage is a function of the state of the circuit. The interpretation of that voltage as a true/false or 1/0 or other meaning is up to the user of the circuit.

The circuit interprets a given input voltage as intending to convey a particular input signal state according to the circuit specifications. Input voltages near the threshold between states may cause unexpected or even destructive results.

__

In order to conserve space, some digital circuits use more than 2 different voltage levels to signify more than 2 different states.
