a) Illustrate the cycle on a Temperature-Entropy (T-s) diagram.
b) Calculate the minimum pressure in the cycle, given the refrigerant
transitions from saturated vapor to saturated liquid during heat rejectionn
1. Coefficient of Performance (COP) of the cycle:
- Formula: COPR = 1 / (TH/TL - 1)
- Calculation: COPR = 1 / (1.2 - 1) = 5
2. Heat transfer calculations:

61.1 °C
4. TL (low temperature) calculation:
- TL = TH / 1.2 = 334.1 K / 1.2 ≈
278.4 K ≈
5.4 °C
5. Minimum pressure (Pmin) estimation:

Validity of a Claimed Heat Pump COP**
A thermodynamicist claims a heat pump has a COP of 1.7, operating
between thermal energy reservoirs at 273 K and 293 K.
Assess the validity of this COP claim.
**Calculation and Analysis**:
1. **Maximum COP of a Reversible Heat Pump (COP_HP,max)**:

- Given temperatures: TH = 293 K, TL = 273 K.
- Calculation: COP_HP,max = 293 K / (293 K - 273 K) = 14.65.
2. **Assessment of the Claim**:
- Claimed COP: 1.7.
- Since the claimed COP (1.7) is less than the maximum possible COP (14.65) for the given temperature limits, the claim is valid.
**Key Formula**:
- COP_HP,max = TH / (TH - TL).
**Conclusion**: The thermodynamicist's claim of a heat pump with a COP of 1.7 is valid as it is less than the theoretical maximum COP for the specified operating conditions.

- Pump Work Calculation: WPump_in = 0.00101 m
³
/kg * (5000 kPa - 10 kPa) = 5.041 kJ/kg.
- Work Ratio Calculation: 2024.2 kJ/kg / 5.041 kJ/kg ≈
402.
**Conclusion**: The ratio of 402 indicates the turbine does significantly more work compared to the work input to the pump

Cylinder with air, heated for 15 minutes at constant pressure.
- Objective: To determine entropy change for both constant and variable specific heats.
**Assumptions:**
- Air is considered as an ideal gas.
**Properties:**
- Gas constant of air: R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K (from Table A-1).
**Analysis:**
1. **Mass Calculation:**
- Conditions: Pressure (P) = 120 kPa, Volume (V) = 0.3 m^3, Temperature (T) = 290 K.
- Formula for mass (m): m = PV / RT.
- Calculated mass: m = 0.4325 kg.
2. **Electrical Work:**
- Power = 0.2 kJ/s.
- Time = 15 minutes (900 seconds).
- Total work (Welec) = 180 kJ.
3. **Energy Balance:**
- Change in internal energy (Delta U) plus work due to heat (Wheat) equals change in enthalpy (Delta H) in a constant pressure process.
4. **Entropy Change with Constant cp:**
- Average Temperature assumed: 450 K.
- Final Temperature (T2): T2 = T1 + Welec / (m * cp_avg).
- Entropy Change (Delta S): Delta S = m * cp_avg * ln(T2/T1) - R * ln(P2/P1).
5. **Entropy Change with Variable Specific Heats:**
- Enthalpy Calculation: h2 = h1 + Welec / m.
- Determine s2 value from air table.
- Entropy Change (Delta S): Delta S = m * (s2 - s1).
**Key Values:**
- Initial Conditions: Volume = 0.3 m^3, Pressure = 120 kPa, Temperature = 17 degrees Celsius.
- Use cp, h, s values from relevant tables for calculations.

Air is preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger. The rate of heat transfer, the outlet temperature of the air, and the rate of entropy generation are to be determined.
Assumptions: 1. Steady operating conditions exist. 2. The heat exchanger is well-insulated, so heat loss to the surroundings is negligible. Heat transfer from the hot fluid equals heat transfer to the cold fluid. 3. Changes in kinetic and potential energies of fluid streams are negligible. 4. Fluid properties are constant.
Properties: - Specific heats of air and combustion gases: 1.005 and 1.10 kJ/kg°C, respectively.
- Gas constant of air: R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K (Table A-1).
Analysis: - System: exhaust pipes as a control volume.
- Energy balance (steady-flow system): E_in - E_out = 0.
- Rate of net energy transfer = Rate of change in internal, kinetic, potential energies.
- E_in = E_out.
- mh1 = Q_out + mh2 (since kinetic and potential energies ≈
0).
- Q_out = mc (T_out - T_in).
Rate of heat transfer from exhaust gases:
- Q = me (Cp_gas) (T_gas_out - T_gas_in) = (2.2 kg/s)(1.1 kJ/kg°C)(180°C-95°C) = 205.7 kW.
Mass flow rate of air:
- m_air = (P_air V_air) / (R T_air) = (95 kPa)(1.6 m3/s) / (0.287 kPa m3/kg K)(293 K) = 1.808 kg/s.
Outlet temperature of air:
- Q = m_air Cp_air (T_out - T_in), - T_out = T_in + Q / (m_air Cp_air) = 20°C + 205.7 kW / [(1.808 kg/s)(1.005 kJ/kg°C)] = 133.2°C.
Entropy generation rate:
- S_gen = m_exhaust Cp ln(T2/T1) + m_air Cp ln(T4/T3).
- S_gen = (2.2 kg/s)(1.1 kJ/kg K) ln[(95+273)K/(180+273)K] + (1.808 kg/s)(1.005 kJ/kg K) ln[(133.2+273)K/(20+273)K].
- S_gen ≈
0.091 kW/K."
