Refrigerant 134a enters a compressor with a mass flow rate of 5 kg/s and a negligible velocity. The refrigerant enters the compressor as a saturated vapor at 10°C and leaves the compressor at 1400 kPa with an enthalpy of 281.39 kJ/kg and a velocity of 50 m/s. The rate of work done on the refrigerant is measured to be 132.4 kW. If the elevation change between the compressor inlet and exit is negligible, determine the rate of heat transfer associated with this process, in kW.

- A power plant, having a Carnot efficiency, produces 1.00 GW of electrical power from turbines that take in steam at 500 K and reject water at 300 K into a flowing river. The water downstream is 6.00 K warmer due to the output of the power plant. Determine the flow rate of the river.arrow_forwardAn electric generating station is designed to have an electric output power of 1.40 MW using a turbine with two-thirds the efficiency of a Carnot engine. The exhaust energy is transferred by heat into a cooling tower at 110C. (a) Find the rate at which the station exhausts energy by heat as a function of the fuel combustion temperature Th. (b) If the firebox is modified to run hotter by using more advanced combustion technology, how does the amount of energy exhaust change? (c) Find the exhaust power for Th = 800C.

The system includes a heat engine that would operate between 20.0C (surface-water temperature) and 5.00C (water temperature at a depth of about 1 km). (a) Your supervisor asks you to determine the maximum efficiency of such a system. (b) In addition, if the electric power output of the plant is 75.0 MW and it operates at the maximum theoretically possible efficiency, you must determine the rate at which energy is taken in from the warm reservoir.

If the average intensity absorbed from sunlight is 650 W/m2 for 12 daylight hours on a clear day, you need to find the area of the ocean surface that is necessary for sunlight to replace the energy absorbed into the engine.
