Problem: Feasibility Study of Recovering Waste Heat from Primary Process Cooling Water to Provide Heat for...
The heat-pump system shown is designed to provide water-heating and space-cooling. The system includes a heat exchanger to subcool the R134a refrigerant at the outlet of the water heater while heating the refrigerant at the outlet of the evaporator. Given the following data, determine the enthalpy at each station, 1 through 6, using the R134a property tables (click here). Type your answers hy through h6 in the space provided below, and show all your work on your paper. · At...
System Model: Automotive Air Conditioning System Outside Air Temp: 45 oC Car Interior Air Temp: 22 oC Heat Load = 4.2 kJ/sec rate at which heat must go in to the air conditioner to be removed from the car’s interior Refrigerant: R134a HINT: Heat enters an air conditioning system where? Refrigerant 134a … - leaves the evaporator coil and enters the compressor as a saturated vapor at the evaporator pressure of 2.8 bars. - It leaves the compressor at...
Problem 2: A residential air-conditioner with an actual cooling capacity of 14.06 kJ/s (4 tons), cools and dehumidifies a steady stream of air flowing over the cooling coil. Actual states for the Refrigerant 134a are given Notice that the compressor efficiency is less than 100% and there are small pressure drops given for the heat exchangers. The coefficient of performance is 3.51 for the actual cycle. Changes in kinetic and potential energy are negligible. The warm indoor air temperature entering...
Thermodynamics A steam power plant operates with high pressure oft 4 MPa and hasleel receiving heat from a 700°C reservoir. The ambient air at 20°C provides cooling to maintain the water/vapor mixture in the condenser at 60°C. All components are ideal i.e., reversible) except the turbine which has an efficiency 92% of a reversible, isentropic process. Other than the irreversibility of the turbine, the power plant can be considered as a Rankine cycle. Determine the following quantities in the suggested...
