In a movie theater in winter, 510 people, each generation sensible heat at a rate of 80 W, are watching a movie. The heat losses

through the walls, windows, and the roof are estimated to be 130,000 Btu/h. Determine the contribution of people to the heating of the building. The average rate of heat generation from people in a movie theater in sensible form is 80 W per person.

Answer:

139213.68\ \text{Btu/h}

Explanation:

Number of people = 510

Heat generated per person with respect to time = 80 W

1\ \text{W}=3.4121\ \text{Btu/h}

Heat generated by 510 people is

\dot{Q}=510\times 80\times 3.4121

\Rightarrow \dot{Q}=139213.68\ \text{Btu/h}

The contribution of people to the heating of the building is 139213.68\ \text{Btu/h}

An Ideal gas is being heated in a circular duct as while flowing over an electric heater of 130 kW. The diameter of duct is 500
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Exit temperature = 32 °C

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial Pressure;P1 = 100 KPa

Cp =1000 J/kg.K = 1 KJ/kg.k

R = 500 J/kg.K = 0.5 Kj/Kg.k

Initial temperature;T1 = 27°C = 273 + 27K = 300 K

volume flow rate;V' = 15 m³/s

W = 130 Kw

Q = 80 Kw

Using ideal gas equation,

PV' = m'RT

Where m' is mass flow rate.

Thus;making m' the subject, we have;

m' = PV'/RT

So at inlet,

m' = P1•V1'/(R•T1)

m' = (100 × 15)/(0.5 × 300)

m' = 10 kg/s

From steady flow energy equation, we know that;

m'•h1 + Q = m'h2 + W

Dividing through by m', we have;

h1 + Q/m' = h2 + W/m'

h = Cp•T

Thus,

Cp•T1 + Q/m' = Cp•T2 + W/m'

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

(1*300) - (80/10) = (1*T2) - (130/10)

Q and M negative because heat is being lost.

300 - 8 + 13 = T2

T2 = 305 K = 305 - 273 °C = 32 °C

13000 + 300 - 8000 = T2
