Chapter 1, Problem 1.18P
A chiller is providing 5 tons of cooling to an air handler by cooling water transfer between the two devices. The chiller is drawing 3.5 kw of electrical power during this operation. At what rate must the chiller dump energy to the environment (say to a cooling tower) in Btu/hr to satisfy the first law of

The driving force for fluid flow is the pressure difference, and a pump operates by raising the pressure of a fluid (by converting the mechanical shaft work to flow energy). A gasoline pump is measured to consume 31 kW of electric power when operating. If the pressure differential between the outlet and inlet of the pump is measured to be 5.9 kPa and the changes in velocity and elevation are negligible, determine the maximum possible volume flow rate of gasoline.
An exercise room has 6 weight-lifting machines that have no motors and 7 treadmills each equipped with a 2.5-hp (shaft output) motor. The motors operate at an average load factor of 0.7, at which their efficiency is 0.77. During peak evening hours, all 12 pieces of exercising equipment are used continuously, and there are also two people doing light exercises while waiting in line for one piece of the equipment. Assuming the average rate of heat dissipation from people in an exercise room is 600 W, determine the rate of heat gain of the exercise room from people and the equipment at peak load conditions.
A 90-hp (shaft output) electric car is powered by an electric motor mounted in the engine compartment. If the motor has an average efficiency of 91 percent, determine the rate of heat supply by the motor to the engine compartment at full load.

- The kitchen, bath, and other ventilation fans in a house should be used sparingly since these fans can discharge a houseful of warmed or cooled air in just one hour. Consider a 200-m2 house whose ceiling height is 2.8 m. The house is heated by a 96 percent efficient gas heater and is maintained at 22°C and 92 kPa. If the unit cost of natural gas is $1.20/therm (1 therm = 105,500 kJ), determine the cost of energy “vented out” by the fans in 1 h.
