If I have a simple piston-cylinder heat engine, where air is the working system and constant heat is applied, thereafter a mass is applied to the piston creating a higher pressure (reduction in volume), would this process be considered isothermal or polytropic? The walls of the cylinder are not insulted either.
In a room (6*5*4 m), if you have a thermal mass in a concrete floor with a thickness of 15 cm (concrete density = 2,250 kg/m3 and SHC= 0.21 kCal/oC.kg), knowing that the ∆Tswing = 4 oC, the occupant gains 3 kWhr/day, the equipment gains =5.5 kWhr/day and the lighting gains = 2.5 kWhr/day, the total heat loss = 30,865 Whr/day. Find the thermal capacity of the floor? What is the quantity of energy we can store in the floor in BTU? What will be the solar gain needed in order to store the previous energy and cover the day requirements?
The volume and temperature of a gas at the beginning of expansion are 0.0056m3 and 183°C, respectively; at the end of expansion the values are 0.0238 m3 and 22°C, respectively. Assuming expansion follows the law PV^n=C, find the value of n.
A composite plane wall consists of a 3-in.-thick layer of insulation (k = 0.029 Btu/h · ft · °R) and a 0.75-in.-thick layer of siding (kg = 0.058 Btu/h · ft · °R). The inner temperature of the insulation is 67°F. The outer temperature of the siding is 8°F. Determine at steady state (a) the temperature at the interface of the two layers, in °F, and (b) the rate of heat transfer through the wall in Btu/h-ft? of surface area.
1. Humans are able to control their rates of heat production and heat loss to maintain a nearly constant core temperature of Te = 37°C under a wide range of environmental conditions. This process is called thermoregulation. From the perspective of calculating heat transfer between a human body and its surroundings, we focus on a layer of skin: fat, with its outer surface exposed to the environment and its inner surface at a temperature slightly less than the core temperature, T = 35°C = 308 K. Consider a person with a skin/fat layer of thickness L = mm and effective thermal conductivity k = 0.3 "- The person has a surface area A = 1.8 m? and is dressed in a bathing suit. The m· K emissivity of the skin is ɛ = 0.95. a). When the person is in still air at T = 282 K, what is the skin surface temperature and rate of heat loss to the environment? Convection heat transfer to the air is characterized by a free convection coefficient of h 2 m2 -K b). When the person is in water at T = 282,…
The roof of an electrically heated home is 6 m long, 8 m wide, and 0.25 m thick, and is made of a flat layer of concrete whose thermal conductivity is k =0.8 W/m · °C. The temperatures of the inner and the outer sur- faces of the roof one night are measured to be 20 °C and 4 °C, respectively. Determine the rate of heat loss through the roof that night. Round the answer to 2 decimal places.

3. A well-mixed cement-lined storage tank contains water initially at 50°C. The water loses energy to its surroundings via conduction through the tank's concrete-lined walls. The tank sits in an unheated warehouse with an air temperature of 0°C. A diagram of the storage tank is shown below. The cement lining is 1.5-cm thick and has a thermal conductivity (htc) of 2.0 W/(m K). height = 1.5 m diameter = 2.0 m a. How long will it take (in minutes) for the water to cool to 40°C? b. Why might you be over- or underestimating the time it will take to cool the contents of the reactor?
Q2-A hollow stainless-steel cylinder having an inside diameter of 4 cm and thickness of 1 cm is exposed to a convection environment at 30 C, h=50 W/m2 C. Heat is generated uniformly in the cylinder at the rate of 1 MW/m3. Determine the steady state temperature distribution in the cylinder. What are (1)-the location and (2)-the value of the maximum temperature in the cylinder? Assume the inside surface is insulated.

A gas is contained in a vertical piston-cylinder assembly by a piston with a face area of 50 in² and weight of 100 lbf. The atmosphere exerts a pressure of 14.7 lb-/in² on top of the piston. A paddle wheel transfers 3 Btu of energy to the gas during a process in which the elevation of the piston increases slowly by 1 ft. The piston and cylinder are poor thermal conductors, and friction between the piston and cylinder can be neglected. Determine the work done by the gas on the piston, in Btu, and the change in internal energy of the gas, in Btu. Step 1 * Your answer is incorrect.

You are asked to assess the validity of a power-generating device. The device supposedly operates steadily by receiving 256 kW via heat transfer at 4.5 °C, receiving 370 kW via heat transfer at 115 °C, and rejecting 200 kW via heat transfer at -180 °C. The device generates electrical power in response to these various heat transfers. a. determine its electrical power output, in kW. b. Is the device feasible? Does it violate 1st and/or 2nd law of thermodynamics?
