(4 blanks) An ice-making machine operates in a Carnot cycle. It takes heat from water at 0.0 °C and rejects heat to a room at 24.0 °C. Suppose that 85.0 kg of water at 0.0 °C are converted to ice at 0.0 °C. How much energy (in Joules) must be supplied to the machine to achieve this task? Sol. Since the machine is a operating in a Carnot cycle, then, its efficiency is e = th |-| tc TH| By virtue of first law, the work done to convert water to ice is given by W = Q = ml Thus, the total energy needed to convert 85 kg of water is ET = 687.5 J

A power plant using a Rankine power generation cycle and steam operates at a temperature of 81.25°C in the condenser, a pressure of 5 MPa in the boiler and a maximum boiler temp of 775°C. The cycle operates at steady state with a mass flow rate of 2.5kg/s. Use the steam tables in the appendix of Sandler (p. 917 to 925). a.) Draw out the cycle, calculate the work required for the pump, the work output by the turbine, the heat into the boiler, and the heat out of the condenser. b.) What is the efficiency of this power plant? c.) If the turbine was only 89% efficient but still adiabatic (only generates 89% of the calculated work from part b), what is the overall efficiency of the cycle?
On my online homework, it says the answer for part b, 993.2 kW and part c, 360.06 are incorrect. I also need help with part d. The figure below provides steady-state operating data for a cogeneration cycle that generates electricity and provides heat for campus buildings. Steam at 1.5 MPa, 280°C, enters a two-stage turbine with a mass flow rate of m1 = 2 kg/s. A fraction of the total flow, y = 0.15, is extracted between the two stages at 0.2 MPa to provide for building heating, and the remainder expands through the second stage to the condenser pressure of 0.1 bar. Condensate returns from the campus buildings at 0.1 MPa, 60°C and passes through a trap into the condenser, where it is reunited with the main feedwater flow. Saturated liquid leaves the condenser at 0.1 bar.
