Question 1 Determine the COP of a refrigerator that removes heat from teh food compartment at a rate ot 4,691 k h tor each kW of power it consumes. (Hint: watch your units) 10 points Save Answer Question 2 Steam enters an adiabatic turbine with a pressure of 2 MPa, temperature of 400 C, and velocity ot 50 m/s. The steam leaves the turbine at a pressure of 20 kPa, specific volume of 6.885 m3/kg, and velocity of 180 m/s. The mass flow rate of the steam is 6 kg/s. Determine the work output of the turbine in kw.

Explanation / Answer

1.

COP = Heat removed / Power input

Heat removed = 4691 kJ/hr = 4691 / (60*60) kW = 1.303 kW

COP = 1.303 / 1 = 1.303

2.

From steam properties at P1 = 2 MPa and T1 = 400 deg C we get h1 = 3250 kJ/kg

From steam properties at P2 = 20 kPa and v2 = 6.885 m^3/kg we get h2 = 2370 kJ/kg

W = m*(h1 - h2 + V1^2 / 2 - V2 ^2 /2)

W = 6*(3250*10^3 - 2370*10^3 + 50^2 /2 - 180^2 / 2)

W = 5190300 Watts

W = 5190.3 kW

3.

Electric power = VI

= 10*120

= 1200 Watts

In 30 minutes, energy drawn = 1200*(30*60) = 2160000 J = 2160 kJ

Specific energy drawn = 2160 / 2.5 = 864 kJ/kg

Initial specific volume v1 = V1 / m

= 1.5 / 2.5

= 0.6 m^3/kg

From water properties at P1 = 1.5 bar and v1 = 0.6 m^3/kg we get h1 = 1620 kJ/kg

Q - W = h2 - h1

0 - (-864) = h2 - 1620

h2 = 2484 kJ/kg

From water properties at P2 = P1 = 1.5 bar and h2 = 2484 kJ/kg we get v2 = 1.05 m^3/kg

4.

From R134a properties at P1 = 1 MPa and T1 = 12 C we get h1 = 68.3 kJ/kg

From R134a properties at P2 = 1 MPa and T2 = 60 c we get h2 = 293 kJ/kg

(2*m)*68.3 + m*(293) = (2m + m)*h3

h3 = 143.2 kJ/kg

From R134a properties at P3 = P2 = P1 = 1 MPa and h3 = 143.2kJ/kg, we get v3 = 0.00513 m^3/kg
