Answer:
The work of the cycle.
Explanation:
The area enclosed by the cycle of the Pressure-Volume diagram of a Carnot engine represents the net work performed by the cycle.
The expansions yield work, and this is represented by the area under the curve all the way to the p=0 line. But the compressions consume work (or add negative work) and this is substracted fro the total work. Therefore the areas under the compressions are eliminated and you are left with only the enclosed area.

Question: determine the temperature, in °R, at the exit
answer:
T2= 569.62°R
Explanation:
T1 = 540°R
V2 = 600 ft/s
V1 = 60 ft/s
h1 = 129.0613 ( value gotten from Ideal gas property-air table )
<em>first step : calculate the value of h2 using the equation below </em>
assuming no work is done ( potential energy is ignored )
h2 = [ h1 + ( V2^2 - V1^2 ) / 2 ] * 1 / 32.2 * 1 / 778
∴ h2 = 136.17 Btu/Ibm
From Table A-17
we will apply interpolation
attached below is the remaining part of the solution
Answer:
a) 8kW
b) $128
Explanation:
Given the coefficient of performance of the heat pump cycle to be 2.5
Energy delivered by the heat pump = 20kW
a) net power required to operate the heat pump = Energy delivered / coefficient of performance
Net power required = 20/2.5
= 8kW
b) Given the cost of electricity is $0.08 for 1kWhour
Since net power required to operate heat pump = 8kW
If the heat pump operate for 200hours, total power required for a month = 8kW×200hours = 1600kWhour
since 1kWh of electricity costs $0.08, cost of electricity used in a month when the pump operates for 200hour will be 1600kWh×$0.08 which is equivalent to $128
