Question

A heat engine operating on the Carnot cycle uses solar energy as the source of high-temperature heat input. The solar irradiation, averaged over the day, has a value of qflux = 0.55 kW/m2. This provides energy to the cycle at a uniform temperature of 420 K, and the cycle rejects heat to the environment at a temperature of 350 K. The engine produces 2500 kW of power. During solution, the following parts must be in order. (a) Sketch the system and its boundary, with all the given data displayed on it. (b) Draw the temperature-entropy (T-s) diagram of the cycle. Assume start of heat addition is state point 1 and all the given data displayed on it. (c) Determine the minimum area of the solar panel in acres that is needed to provide this power. Write down units in each step of the solution, where appropriate. Write your comments on the outcome of your solution. Use correct and appropriate symbols for the known and unknown thermodynamic quantities and properties.
