A heat pump cycle is used to maintain the interior of a building at 15°C. At steady state, the heat pump receives energy by heat

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

a) Ql=33120000 kJ

b) COP = 5.6

c) COPreversible= 29.3

Explanation:

a) of the attached figure we have:

HP is heat pump, W is the work supplied, Th is the higher temperature, Tl is the low temperature, Ql is heat supplied and Qh is the heat rejected. The worj is:

W=Qh-Ql

Ql=Qh-W

where W=2000 kWh

Qh=120000 kJ/h

$Q_{l}=14days(\frac{24 h}{1 day})(\frac{120000 kJ}{1 h})-2000 kWh(\frac{3600 s}{1 h})=33120000 kJ$

b) The coefficient of performance is:

$COP=\frac{Q_{h} }{W}=\frac{120000 kJ/h*14(\frac{24 h}{1 day}) }{2000 kWh(\frac{3600 s}{1 h}) } = 5.6$

c) The coefficient of performance of a reversible heat pump is:

$COP_{reversible}=\frac{T_{h} }{T_{h}-T_{l} }$

Th=20+273=293 K

Tl=10+273=283K

Replacing:

$COP_{reversible}=\frac{293}{293-283}=29.3$

Differences between acidic and basic Bessemer process

dybincka [34]

Answer:

In the acid processes, deoxidation can take place in the furnaces, leaving a reasonable time for the inclusions to rise into the sla*g and so be removed before casting. Whereas in the basic furnaces, deoxidation is rarely carried out in the presence of the sla*g, otherwise phosphorus would return to the metal.

Milk has a density of as much as 64.6 lb/ft3. What is the gage pressure at the bottom of the straw 6.1 inches deep in the milk?

gregori [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 inch is 0.0833333feet

6.1 inches is 0.5083 feet

Density = mass/volume

64.6 = mass/0.50833

mass = 64.6 x 0.5083 =32.83618lb
