A desuperheater can be installed on your refrigeration system to obtain free hot water. You estimate you can heat 150,000 liters of water per year from 15°C (city water entering temperature) to 60°C. This will replace a natural gas water heater that operates at 80% efficiency. You pay $10.00 per GJ for your gas. The unit has an economic life of 5 years. How much can you pay for that unit and obtain a return of 12%?

You want to quickly set up a temporary water bath in your lab with a volume of 10.0 L and a temperature of 37.0°C. You only have hot water from your hot water faucet (temperature = 55.0°C) and cold water from your cold water faucet (temperature = 22.0°C). What volume of hot water (in liters) must you mix with cold water to get 10.0 L of 37.0°C water? Assume the specific heat of the water is 4.184 J/g･K and that...

Your house has lost electricity and natural gas. Luckily, you still have running water but the idea of an ice cold shower doesn’t appeal to you. So you want to have a hot water bath but the only source of heat is a wood fire. You put 195L of cold water (15C) into the tub but you are going to have to carry something hot from the fireplace to the tub to heat it up. You have two choices. You...

C and D please.
AGL Energy is expanding the capacity of the Liddell Power Station. The plan is to commission a steam turbine power plant that operates on a regenerative Rankine cycle and has a net power output of 150 MW where steam enters the turbine at 10 MPa and 500°C, and the condenser at 10 kPa. The isentropic efficiency of the turbine is 80 percent, and that of the both pump is 95 percent. Steam is extracted from the...
