Light trucks and vans were mandated what year

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: The first nationwide US light duty vehicle emission standards were implemented in 1968, and subsequently reviewed every couple of years. New standards were referred to by the effective model year of the regulation from 1968 to 1987

In a simple ideal Rankine cycle, water is used as the working fluid. The cycle operates with pressures of 2000 psi in the boiler

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The pressures given are relative

p1 = 2000 psi

P1 = 2014 psi = 13.9 MPa

p2 = 4 psi

P2 = 18.6 psi = 128 kPa

Values are taken from the steam pressure-enthalpy diagram

h2 = 2500 kJ/kg

If the output of the turbine has a quality of 85%:

t2 = 106 C

I consider the expansion in the turbine to adiabatic and reversible, therefore, isentropic

s1 = s2 = 6.4 kJ/(kg K)

h1 = 3500 kJ/kg

t2 = 550 C

The work in the turbine is of

w = h1 - h2 = 3500 - 2500 = 1000 kJ/kg

The thermal efficiency of the cycle depends on the input heat.

η = w/q1

q1 is not a given, so it cannot be calculated.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The electrical power is 96.5 W/m^2

Explanation:

The energy balance is:

Ein-Eout=0

$qe+\alpha sGs+\alpha skyGsky-EEb(Ts)-qc=0$

if:

Gsky=oTsky^4

Eb=oTs^4

qc=h(Ts-Tα)

$\alpha s=\frac{\int\limits^\alpha _0 {\alpha l Gl} \, dl }{\int\limits^\alpha _0 {Gl} \, dl }$

$\alpha s=\frac{\int\limits^\alpha _0 {\alpha lEl(l,5800 } \, dl }{\int\limits^\alpha _0 {El(l,5800)} \, dl }$

if Gl≈El(l,5800)

$\alpha s=(1-0.2)F(0-2)+(1-0.7)(1-F(0-2))$

lt= 2*5800=11600 um-K, at this value, F=0.941

$\alpha s=(0.8*0.941)+0.3(1-0.941)=0.77$

The hemispherical emissivity is equal to:

$E=(1-0.2)F(0-2)+(1-0.7)(1-F(0-2))$

lt=2*333=666 K, at this value, F=0

$E=0+(1-0.7)(1)=0.3$

The hemispherical absorptivity is equal to:

$qe=EoTs^{4}+h(Ts-T\alpha )-\alpha sGs-\alpha oTsky^{4}=(0.3*5.67x10^{-8}*333^{4})+10(60-20)-(0.77-600)-(0.3*5.67x10^{-8}*233^{4})=96.5 W/m^{2}$

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

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