A heater uses water from a geyser with temperature 90◦C and the atmosphere with the temperature 10◦C as reservoirs. Which is the machine's maximum efficiency?
A Carnot machine operates between reservoirs with temperatures 400
K and 300 K. At the lower temperature, the heating volume 330 is
transferred J. What work does the machine do?
Homework Answers
Efficiency %=( 1- T2/T1)× 100 = (1- 283/ 363)×100
= (1- 283/363)×100= 22%
T2/T1= 300/400= Q2/Q1= 330/Q1
Q1= 440J
Q1- Q2 = 440 - 330 = 100J

A power cycle operates between a lake’s surface water at a temperature of 300 K and water at a depth whose temperature is 285 K. At steady state the cycle develops a power output of 10 kW, while rejecting energy by heat transfer to the lower temperature water at the rate 14,400 kJ/min. Determine (a) the thermal efficiency of the power cycle and (b) the maximum thermal efficiency for any such power cycle. I have no idea on how to...

Water is to be heated from 10 °C to 83 °C as it flows through a 0.015 m-internal-diameter, 13-m-long tube. The tube is equipped with an electric resistance heater, which provides uniform heating throughout the surface of the tube. The outer surface of the heater is well insulated, so that in steady operation all the heat generated in the heater is transferred to the water in the tube. The system provides hot water at a rate of 5 L/min Assumelp...

The heater used in a 4.32 m×3.55 m×2.91 m dorm room uses the combustion of natural gas (primarily methane gas) to produce the heat required to increase the temperature of the air in the dorm room. Assuming that all of the energy produced in the reaction goes towards heating only the air in the dorm room, calculate the mass of methane required to increase the temperature of the air by 6.97 °C. Assume that the specific heat of air is...
