A power cycle operating between two reservoirs receives energy QH by heat transfer from a hot reservoir at TH= 2000 K and rejects energy Qc by heat transfer to a cold reservoir at Tc= 400 K. For each of the following cases determine whether the cycle operates reversibly, irreversibly, or oes not verify the second law of thermodynamics (make all necessary calculation for each case). a) QH= 1200 kJ and Wcycle = 1020 kJ b) QH= 1200 kJ and Qc = 240 kJ c) Wcycle = 1020 kJ and Qc = 600 kJ d) n = 40%

Work and Heat Transfer

It is generally related to thermal engineering which tells about the use, creation, conversion and transfer of heat energy between the systems. It is also considered that to transfer heat from one source to another, transfer of masses is also required. There are various mechanisms by which, transfer of heat takes place i.e. thermal conduction, convection, radiation or by change of phase. All these mechanisms have their own specific features which sometimes occur simultaneously within the same system.
