For a geothermal power plant, the underground hot water thetemperature of 80oC is the source, and the ambient atmospheric air is30oC. Determine the maximum possible thermal efficiency of the powerplant, and the maximum power output if the rate at which energy issupplied is 1 kJ/s.
A commercial airliner is flying at an altitude where the temperature and pressure of the air are -50°C and 26.5 kPa. An engine-driven compressor will take this air at T= -50°C, P₁ = 26.5 kPa and compress it to P₂ = P₂ = 85.0 kPa to pressurize the cabin. The air will be very hot when it exits the compressor, so a heat exchanger will be used to cool the air to T, = 20°C before it enters the cabin. Cold air at T₁ = -50°C will be used in the heat exchanger to cool the cabin air, and this air will exit the heat exchanger at T = 20°C (this air will be used to heat the cargo bay). The mass flow rate of the air delivered to the cabin is 0.80 kg/s and the compressor efficiency is 75%. Model the air as an ideal gas having constant specific heat, using 300 K values from Cengel's tables posted on Canvas. a) Find the actual temperature of the air exiting the compressor and the power input to the compressor (answers: 67.6°C and 94.5 kW). b) Find the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger and…
