A room is kept at −5°C by a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle with R-134a as the refrigerant. Heat is rejected to cooling wa

ter that enters the condenser at 20°C at a rate of 0.13 kg/s and leaves at 28°C. The refrigerant enters the condenser at 1.2 MPa and 50°C and leaves as a saturated liquid. If the compressor consumes 1.9 kW of power, determine (a) the refrigeration load, in Btu/h and the COP, (b) the second-law efficiency of the refrigerator and the total exergy destruction in the cycle, and (c) the exergy destruction in the condenser. Take T0 = 20°C and cp,water = 4.18 kJ/kg·°C

A well-insulated tank in a vapor power plant operates at steady state. Saturated liquid water enters at inlet 1 at a rate of 125
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a) \dot m_{3} = 135\,\frac{lbm}{s}, b) h_{3}=168.965\,\frac{BTU}{lbm}, c) T = 200.829\,^{\textdegree}F

Explanation:

a) The tank can be modelled by the Principle of Mass Conservation:

\dot m_{1} + \dot m_{2} - \dot m_{3} = 0

The mass flow rate exiting the tank is:

\dot m_{3} = \dot m_{1} + \dot m_{2}

\dot m_{3} = 125\,\frac{lbm}{s} + 10\,\frac{lbm}{s}

\dot m_{3} = 135\,\frac{lbm}{s}

b) An expression for the specific enthalpy at outlet is derived from the First Law of Thermodynamics:

\dot m_{1}\cdot h_{1} + \dot m_{2} \cdot h_{2} - \dot m_{3}\cdot h_{3} = 0

h_{3} = \frac{\dot m_{1}\cdot h_{1}+\dot m_{2}\cdot h_{2}}{\dot m_{3}}

Properties of water are obtained from tables:

h_{1}=180.16\,\frac{BTU}{lbm}

h_{2}=28.08\,\frac{BTU}{lbm} + \left(0.01604\,\frac{ft^{3}}{lbm}\right)\cdot (14.7\,psia-0.25638\,psia)

h_{2}=29.032\,\frac{BTU}{lbm}

The specific enthalpy at outlet is:

h_{3}=\frac{(125\,\frac{lbm}{s} )\cdot (180.16\,\frac{BTU}{lbm} )+(10\,\frac{lbm}{s} )\cdot (29.032\,\frac{BTU}{lbm} )}{135\,\frac{lbm}{s} }

h_{3}=168.965\,\frac{BTU}{lbm}

c) After a quick interpolation from data availables on water tables, the final temperature is:

T = 200.829\,^{\textdegree}F

Discuss in detail the following methods used to redistribute income and wealth in cash grants?​
aev [14]

Answer:

Redistribution of income and wealth is the transfer of income and wealth (including physical property) from some individuals to others through a social mechanism such as taxation, welfare, public services, land reform, monetary policies, confiscation, divorce or tort law.

-The term typically refers to redistribution on an economy-wide basis rather than between selected individuals.

Interpretations of the phrase vary, depending on personal perspectives, political ideologies and the selective use of statistics.

-It is frequently heard in politics, usually referring to perceived redistribution from those who have more to those who have less. Occasionally, however, it is used to describe laws or policies that cause opposite redistribution that shift monetary burdens from low-income earners to the wealthy.

-

The phrase is often coupled with the term class warfare, with high-income earners and the wealthy portrayed as victims of unfairness and discrimination.

-

Redistribution tax policy should not be confused with predistribution policies. "Predistribution" is the idea that the state should try to prevent inequalities from occurring in the first place rather than through the tax and benefits system once they have occurred. For example, a government predistribution policy might require employers to pay all employees a living wage, not just a minimum wage, as a "bottom-up" response to widespread income inequalities or high poverty rates.

Many alternate taxation proposals have been floated without the political will to alter the status quo. One example is the proposed "Buffett Rule", which is a hybrid taxation model composed of opposing systems, intended to minimize the favoritism of the special interest tax design.

A water pump delivers 3 hp of shaft power when operating. If the pressure differential between the outlet and the inlet of the p
Natali [406]

Answer:

Mechanical Efficiency =  83.51%

Explanation:

Given Data:

Pressure difference = ΔP=1.2 Psi

Flow rate = V=8ft^3/s\\

Power of Pump = 3 hp

Required:

Mechanical Efficiency

Solution:

We will first bring the change the units of given data into SI units.

P=1.2*6.895 = 8.274KPa\\V=8*0.00283=0.226 m^3/s\\P=3*0.746=2.238KW

Now we will find the change in energy.

Since it is mentioned in the statement that change in elevation (potential energy) and change in velocity (Kinetic Energy) are negligible.

Thus change in energy is

=(Mass * change in P)/density\\= \frac{M*P}{p}\\\\

As we know that Mass = Volume x density

substituting the value

Energy = Volume * density x ΔP / density

Change in energy = Volumetric flow x ΔP

Change in energy = 0.226 x 8.274 = 1.869 KW

Now mechanical efficiency = change in energy / work done by shaft

Efficiency = 1.869 / 2.238

Efficiency = 0.8351 = 83.51%
