refrigerant 134a enters a compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at 0.12 MPa and exits at 1.2 MPa and 70 C at a

mass flow rate of 0.108kg/s. As the refrigerant passes through the compressor, heat transfer to the surroundings occurs at a rate of 0.32 kJ/s. Determine at steady state the power input to the compressor, in kW.

Answer:

the power input to the compressor is 7.19Kw

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem follow the steps below.

1. We will call 1 the refrigerant state at the compressor inlet and 2 at the outlet.

2. We use thermodynamic tables to determine enthalpies in states 1 and 2.

(note: Through laboratory tests, thermodynamic tables were developed, these allow to know all the thermodynamic properties of a substance (entropy, enthalpy, pressure, specific volume, internal energy etc ..)  

through prior knowledge of two other properties such as pressure and temperature.  )

h1[quality=1, P=0.12Mpa)=237KJ/Kg

h2(P=1.2Mpa, t=70C)=300.6KJ/kg

3. uses the first law of thermodynamics in the compressor that states that the energy that enters a system is the same that must come out

Q=heat=0.32kJ/s

W=power input to the compressor

m=mass flow=0.108kg/S

m(h1)+W=Q+m(h2)

solving for W

W=Q+m(h2-h1)

W=0.32+0.108(300.6-237)=7.19Kw

the power input to the compressor is 7.19Kw

\large \mathfrak{Solution : }

Average speed :

  • \boxed{ \dfrac{distance \:  \: covered}{total \:  \: time \:  \: taken} }

  • \dfrac{100}{8}

  • 12.5 \:  \: m/s

The horizontal (flat) line on a Distance - time graph shows that the body is at rest because the value of Distance (on y - axis ) is same for increasing time ( on x - axis ), it basically shows that the object is at the same position with the change in time.

therefore, correct option is :

  • a. \:  \: the \:  \: object \:  \: is \:  \: not \:  \: moving

The energy changes involved when a positive charge moves because of a nearby, negatively charged object because that is actually similar to when an object falls in a gravitational field, the potential energy of the object will turn in to a kinetic energy. thank you for this question.
