Problem 2.3 (Clausius Inequality Applications) A system executes a power cycle while receiving 1050 kJ by heat transfer at a temperature of 525 K and discharging 700 kJ by heat transfer at 350 K. There are no other heat transfers (a) Using eq.5.13, determine whether the cycle is internally reversible, irreversible, or impossible. (b) Determine the thermal efficiency using eq.5.4 and the given heat transfer data. Compare this value with the Carnot efficiency calculated using eq.5.9 and comment.
Operating in series are two reversible heat pumps. Heat transfer gives energy to the first cycle from a cold reservoir at 105 K and rejects energy by heat transfer to a reservoir at an intermediate temperature T greater than 105 K. The second cycle receives energy by heat transfer from the reservoir at T and rejects energy by heat transfer to a higher-temperature reservoir at 1200 K. If the heat pump cycles have the same co-efficient of performance, calculate: Low...

Consider the Rankine cycle below with steam flow rate of 5kg/s. The steam receives heat from the combustion gases in the furnace of the generator; assume the combustion gases change temperature from 2000°K to 425 K in flowing through the steam generator. The cooling water enters the condenser 20°C and leaves at 40°C. Assume the flow in the pump and the turbine is adiabatic and internally reversible. Also assume the combustion gas has the properties of air. If To is...
Problem 8.015 Water is the working fluid in a Rankine cycle. Steam exits the steam generator at 1500 lbf/in.2 and 1100℉ Due to heat transfer and frictional effects in the line connecting the steam generator and turbine, the pressure and temperature at the turbine inlet are reduced to 1400 Ibf/in.2 and 1000 , respectively. Both the turbine and pump have isentropic efficiencies of 95%. Pressure at the condenser inlet is 2 lbf/ in.2, but due to frictional effects the condensate...
