EXAM 3B 1. The Carnot heat engine receives 6500 kJ/h of heat from a boiler at 950 °C and rejects the waste heat to a well at 20°C. The produced power output of heat engine is fully used to operate the heat pump that draws the heat from the outdoor environment and transfers it to warm the house at the rate of 1100 kJ/min. If the house is maintained at 23°C, what is the lowest temperature of outdoor environment? (6...
Problem 3. Rankine Cycle (90 points) A steam power plant operates with high pressure of 4 MPa and has a boiler exit at 600°C 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% ofa reversible isentropic process. Other than the irreversibility of the turbine, the power plant can be considered as...

B.1 This question concerns the use of different working substances in an engine 2018 (a) Carbon monoxide (CO) and ethene (C2H4) are gases with the same molecular mass: how do you expect their heat capacities to compare, and why? A reversible heat engine involves one mole of diatomic ideal gas cycling around four states labelled a,b,c & d where a is the state of highest pressure. The cycle comprises two isotherms (a-b, c-d) and two isochores (b-c, d-a). [Note: 'isochore'...
