Two kilograms of air within a piston–cylinder assembly executes a Carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temperatures of 80

0 K and 295 K, respectively. The heat transfer to the air during the isothermal expansion is 60 kJ. At the end of the isothermal expansion the volume is 0.4 m3. Assume the ideal gas model for the air. Determine the thermal efficiency, the volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion, in m3, and the work during the adiabatic expansion, in kJ.

Answer:

thermal efficiency, η=  0.63125

volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion, V1 = 0.34011 m3

work during the adiabatic expansion, in kJ = 766.59 KJ

Explanation:

<u>To determine the thermal efficiency</u>

The thermal efficiency of a heat engine gives an estimation of the amount of heat energy converted to work in the engine.

Thermal efficiency is given by: η= 1-  (Tc/Th)

where, Tc= ambient temperature or the minimum temperature

            Th=  maximum temperature

from the given data:

minimum temperature = 295 K

maximum temperature =  800 K

η= 1-  (295/800)

η=  0.63125

<u>To determine the volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion, in m3</u>

We know,  ΔU = Q − W.

where,  ΔU is the change in internal energy of the system.

Q= mRT In (V2/V1)

Where, V1 = volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion

             V2 = = volume at the end of the isothermal expansion

Therefore, V1 = V2 / (Q/mRT)

V1= 0.4/ ((60000/ (2 x 287 x 800))

V1 = 0.34011 m3

where, isothermal expansion given is 60 kJ

             isothermal expansion the volume given is 0.4 m3

<u>To determine the work during the adiabatic expansion, in kJ.</u>

Work during the adiabatic process is given by

W = − ΔU

where,  ΔU is the change in internal energy of the system

W at the first and second process = - 2 x 759 ( 295 - 800)

= 766590J = 766.59 KJ

Colonial Adventure Tours calculates the total price of a trip by adding the trip price plus other fees and multiplying the resul
Vilka [71]

Answer:

The following query is used to display TripName. Reservationld, FirstName. LastName and TotalCost of trip by adding the trip price plus other fees and multiplying the result by the number of persons which have number of persons >4.

Query:

SELECT ReservationlD, Trip.TripName. Customer.LastName. Customer.FirstName. (TripPrice+OtherFees) 'NumPersons as TotalCost FROM Reservation, Trip, Customer WHERE NumPersons>4 AND Reservation.TriplD=Trip.TriplD AND

Customer. CustomerNum=Reservation.CustomerNum:

Explanation:

  • Select clause is used to retrieve data from specified database table or relation and returns the data in the form of table.
  • ReservationID. Trip.TripName. Customer.LastName. Customer.FirstName are the column name of table.
  • (TripPrice+OtherFees) 'NumPersons will calculate the total cost of the Trip and stored it into TotalCost column.
  • As clause is used to give new name TotalCost to resultant column.
  • FROM clause specifies one or more table from where records to be retrieved. o Reservation. Trip and Customer are the table name.
  • WHERE clause is used in SQL query to retrieve only those records that satisfy the specified condition

A turbine operates at steady state, and experiences a heat loss. 1.1 kg/s of water flows through the system. The inlet is mainta
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

\dot W_{out} = 399.47\,kW

Explanation:

The turbine is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics:

-\dot Q_{out} -\dot W_{out} + \dot m\cdot (h_{in}-h_{out}) = 0

The work done by the turbine is:

\dot W_{out} = \dot m \cdot (h_{in}-h_{out})-\dot Q_{out}

The properties of the water are obtained from property tables:

Inlet (Superheated Steam)

P = 10\,MPa

T = 520\,^{\textdegree}C

h = 3425.9\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

Outlet (Superheated Steam)

P = 1\,MPa

T = 280\,^{\textdegree}C

h = 3008.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

The work output is:

\dot W_{out} = \left(1.1\,\frac{kg}{s}\right)\cdot \left(3425.9\,\frac{kJ}{kg} -3008.2\,\frac{kJ}{kg}\right) - 60\,kW

\dot W_{out} = 399.47\,kW
