A thermodynamic cycle has heat addition during an isobaric process while the temperature increases from 300 K to 450 K. Heat is rejected during an isochoric process, while the temperature decreases from 350 K to 270 K. Given that cv=0.956 kJ/kg/K and 1.244kJ/kg/K, determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle assuming that all other processes in the cycle are adiabatic. State your answer as a percentage to 2 decimal places.

H6. An air conditioner in an upper-floor apartment unit is turned on during a hot summer afternoon. If heat can be removed from the interior at a rate of 1.5 kW, estimate the time required to cool the air inside the apartment to its final temperature. Your estimate should create any needed input data and should incorporate factors like the size of the apartment and the behavior of air.

Good Day , Am struggling with the two questions below , please assit Question 1 A solar-power-tower plant is considered for Dakar, Senegal. Heliostats with a total area of 80,000 m2 are to be used to reflect solar radiation into a receiver. When the solar irradiation is 950 W/m2, steam is produced at 2 MPa and 400°C at a rate of 20 kg/s. This steam is expanded in a turbine to 20 kPa pressure. The enthalpy at the exit of the turbine is 2484.5 kJ/kg.(a) Determine the power output and the thermal efficiency of the plant when the solar radiation is 950 W/m2.(b) How much electricity can be produced per year if the average thermal efficiency is 15 % and the generator efficiency is 96 %? Question 2 To reduce cooling electricity consumption in an industrial plant, it is proposed to install an absorption refrigeration system running on solar energy. The absorption system costs $300,000 and the operating and maintenance expenses are $8000 per year. It is estimated that this absorption system…
An air conditioner on a summer day removes heat steadily from a house at a rate of 750 kJ/min while drawing electric power at a rate of 5.25 kW. Please answer the following. a. Create a schematic representation of the air conditioning system under consideration. b. Determine the COP of this air conditioner and the rate of heat transfer to the outside air. c. Now winter has come, and the owner decides to use the equipment as heat pump to warm the house. Because the house is not perfectly insulated, and the outside temperature is 0°C the estimated rate of heat transfer loss rate from the house to the surroundings is equal to 1200 kJ/min. Will the air conditioning unit operating as heat pump satisfy the required heating if the electrical power drawn is 5.25 kW? Explain how you arrived at the answer. d. If the heat pump would operate as a Carnot Heat Pump and the indoor temperature is 25°C while the outside temperature is 0°C, compute the COP.
