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 from the heater is transferred to the water in the tube.

The blades of a wind turbine turn a large shaft at a relatively slow speed. The rotational speed is increased by a gearbox that has an efficiency of 0.93. In turn, the gearbox output shaft drives an electric generator with an efficiency of 0.95. The cylindrical nacelle, which houses the gearbox, generator, and associated equipment, is of length L = 6 m and diameter D = 3 m. If the turbine produces P = 2.5 MW of electrical power, and the air and surroundings temperatures are T = 25 oC and Tsur = 20 oC, respectively, determine the minimum possible operating temperature inside the nacelle. The emissivity of the nacelle is 0.83, and the convective heat transfer coefficient is h = 35 W/m2 .K. The surface of the nacelle that is adjacent to the blade hub can be considered to be adiabatic, and solar irradiation may be neglected.

n electric generator at a power plant produces energy by passing superheated steam from a high temperature container (reservoir), through a pipe connected to a series of fans, and then into a low temperature reservoir. As the steam passes across the blades of the fans some of the heat energy of the steam is transformed into mechanical energy, which turns the fans which in turn are connected to a generator, which in turn converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. If the high temperature steam has a temperature of 412.1 K and the low temperature reservoir has a temperature of 105.4 K, what is the Carnot efficiency of this process?
