An irreversible heat pump with COP of 2.4 is used to heat water to 80°C for cleaning purposes. This heat pump absorbs heat from surrounding at 30°C and received the entire power, W from a Carnot heat engine operating between 250°C and 30°C. The Canot heat engine received 6.3 kW of heat from the high temperature source. i) Draw the schematic diagram of the above system. ii) Determine the power received by the heat pump, W from Carnot heat engine, kW. i1) Calculate the rate of heat supplied to the water by the heat pump, kW. iv) Determine the COP of the heat pump if it operates on a reversed Carnot cycle.
b) Refrigerators are systems that are used to remove heat from a cooled space then reject heat to a space of higher temperature. Consider a refrigerator operating at normal conditions, removing heat from a cool space at a rate of 150 kJ/min to ensure the refrigerated space is kept at -5 °C. If the surrounding air is at 27 °C and assuming that the refrigerator is operating as a Carnot cycle, determine: 1) The rate of heat being rejected to the surrounding in kJ/min The coefficient of performance of this refrigeration process 11) 111) The minimum required power on this process (give your answer in kW)

Q2 (a) A heat engine is a system that converts heat into mechanical energy, which can then be used to do mechanical work. In your opinion, is it possible for a heat engine to operate without rejecting any waste heat to a low-temperature reservoir. Give your explanation.
A reversible power cycle operating as in the figure receives energy QH by heat transfer from a hot reservoir at TH and rejects energy Qc = 10 Btu by heat transfer to a cold reservoir at Tc = 40°F. The work for the cycle Wcycle = 30 Btu. Determine the thermal efficiency and TH, in °F. Step 1 Determine the thermal efficiency. n = i % Hot reservoir Cold reservoir Он Wcycle
01: A reversible heat engine has heat interaction from three reservoirs at 600 K, 700 K and 800 K. The engine rejects 10 kJ/s to the sink at 320 K after doing 20 kW of work. The heat supplied by reservoir at 800 K is 70% of the heat supplied by reservoir at 700 K then determine the exact amount of heat interaction with each high temperature reservoir.
(a) An irreversible heat engine A and a reversible heat engine B operate between the same two thermal energy reservoirs (Figure Q3a). Each heat engine receives the same amount of heat, Qu from the high-temperature reservoir. Based on the Carnot Principles show that the heat engine A removes more energy, Qi to the low-temperature reservoir than heat engine B. TH Heat Engine Heat Engine B TL Figure Q3a
This question deals with a cylinder, which is upright. Here are the facts for the problem. Can you please help me with a clear diagram and then the right equations for net work and heat? There is a massless and frictionless piston inside the cylinder with two stops which prevent movement down the cylinder. But, the cylinder can still move upward. Under the Below the piston is 5 kg of water, 50% of which (by mass) is initially vapor at 120°C. Heat is gradually added to the water until the water reaches a final state of 400°C. The atmospheric pressure is 500 kPa. The stops don't affect the area. (1) Draw a P-V diagram for the process, which includes the isotherms at states 1 and 2. (2) A what temperature does the piston first lift off? At what temperature has the liquid turned to vapor? (3) What is the net work and heat transfer between the system and the surrondings between states 1 and 2. Are these transfers going into or out of the system?
