The Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) of an air-conditioning unit is defined asthe ratio of the heat removed in Btu/h divided by the energy used in watts.The EEI (Edison Electric Institute) names an air-conditioning unit as anEnergy Star unit if it has an EER of 13 or greater. A 21⁄2-ton air-conditioningunit uses 2.41 kilowatts (2,410 watts) of energy. One ton is equivalent to12,000 Btu/h. Can this unit be termed an Energy Star unit?
Determine the energy consumption (BTU/min), If two 50-kg LPG tanks are needed per 24-hour operation, heating value for the LPG of 11,000 kcal/kg.   Subject: Civil Engineering: Thermodynamics
A furnace uses a coal with the following composition (C = 75.9 wt%, H = 5 wt %, O = 8.6 wt%, N = 0.5 wt%, and ash = 10 wt%). Combustion happens with 35% excess air to form CO2, H2O, and NO2 gases. Assume conversion of all fuel nitrogen to NO2, and that no thermal NO2 (wet basis) forms. Calculate the NO2 gases concentration (ppm) in the dry exhaust.
