An air-cooled condenser has an h value of 30 W/m2-K based on the air-side area. The air-side heat transfer area is 190 m2 with air entering at 27°C and leaving at 40°C. If the condensing temperature is constant at 49°C, what is the air mass flow rate in kg/s? Let Cp(air) = 1.006 kJ/kg-K. Draw and label the temperature-flow diagram. Round off your answer to three (3) decimal places.

In an absorption refrigerator, the energy driving the process is sllPplied not as work, but as heat from a gas flame. (Such refrigerators commonly use propane as fuel, and are used in locations where electricity is unavailable. *) Let us define the following symbols, all taken to be positive by definition: Qf = heat input from flame Qe = heat extracted from inside refrigerator Qr = waste heat expelled to room Tf = temperature of flame Te temperature inside refrigerator Tr = room temperature Use the second law of thermodynamics to derive an upper limit on the COP, in terms of the temperatures Tf, Te, and Tr alone.

Thermodynamic Properties of HFC-134a Refrigerant (1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane) CH2FCF3 molecular Weight 102.3 Bolling point at one atmosphere -26.06C Critical Temperature 374.23K Critical Pressure 4060.3 kPa Critical Density 515.3 kg/m^3 Critical Volume 0.00194 m^3/kg 1) The condenser of a home refrigerator is commonly underneath the appliance, thus the condensing refrigerant exchanges heat with household air, which averages 70oF. It is proposed to reconfigure a refrigerator so that the condenser is in the garage, where the average yearly temperature is about 50oF. Assume a freezer temperature of 0oF, a minimum temperature difference of 10K for heat transfer, and an actual coefficient of performance of 60% that of a Carnot cycle. Calculate the Coefficient of Performance for both configurations and discuss the pros and cons of this proposal. 2) Which is the most effective way to increase the coefficient of performance of a Carnot refrigerator: to increase TC with TH held constant or to…

Water vapor with a flow rate of 20000 kg / h enters the condenser of a power plant at a pressure of 20 kPa and a dryness degree of 95 percent. In the condenser, there is heat transfer to the river water flowing through the pipes. The temperature rise of the river water is limited to 10 C to prevent thermal pollution. Since the state of the water at the condenser outlet is saturated liquid at 20 kPa pressure, what should be the flow rate of the cooling water.
Subject: thermodynamics In a gas turbine generating set, two stages of compression are used with an intercooler between stages. The HP turbine drives the HP compressor, and the LP turbine drives the LP compressor and the generator. The exhaust from the LP turbine passes through a heat exchanger which transfers heat to the air leaving the HP compressor. There is a reheat combustion chamber between turbine stages which raises the gas temperature to 600 ?C, which is also the gas temperature at entry to the HP turbine. The overall pressure ratio is 10/1, each compressor having the same pressure ratio, and the air temperature at entry to the unit is 20 ?C. The heat exchanger thermal ratio may be taken as 0.7, and intercooling is complete between compressor stages. Assume isentropic efficiencies of 0.8 for both compressor stages, and 0.85 for both turbine stages, and that 2% of the work of each turbine is used in overcoming friction. Neglecting all losses in pressure, and assuming that…
