Question 6 Compare the carbon emissions per MJ to heat household water using the following two energy systems: a) A 25% efficient coal-fired power plant delivering electricity to a 99% efficient electric water heater. Assume LHV carbon intensity of coal is 25.8 gC/MJ. b) A new 50% efficient natural gas-fired combined cycle power plant to a 99% efficient electric water heater. You must calculate the LHV carbon intensity of natural gas. Assume 100% methane and ideal conditions. Assume 5% losses in electrical transmission lines and 90 MJ of fuel input to each system.
Convert the total kilowatts per year for all appliances into equivalent amounts (pounds) of oil burned to generate this energy. (It takes about 5.4 pounds of fuel oil to generate one kilowatt of energy. So, pounds of fuel oil per year = kilowatts per year * 5.4) __________________ Pounds fuel oil per year

A geothermal resource/aquifer has been tested and confirmed to continuously produce saturated liquid water at 230°C. It is desired to construct a 60 MW geothermal power plant, which will utilize this resource. Two designs are proposed: a) a single flash unit and b) a dual-flash unit. A nearby cooling pond may supply sufficient cooling water to keep the condenser of the plant at 40°C. For the two types of units under consideration calculate: a) The total amount of steam that needs to be produced. b) The total amount of water the wells must provide. c) If each well produces 60 kg/s of water, what is the number of wells that must be drilled?
! Required information NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. A Carnot heat pump is to be used to heat a house and maintain it at 25°C in winter. On a day when the average outdoor temperature remains at about 2°C, the house is estimated to lose heat at a rate of 55,000 kJ/h. The heat pump consumes 5.15 kW of power while operating. HP 25°C 2°C 55,000 kJ/h How long did the heat pump run on that day?

Projects 3: Gas turbine operated on Brayton cycle Gas turbine operated on Brayton cycle used for electric utility as separated or combined cycles with steam power plant. Broadly speaking, gas turbine cycle is preferred over steam power plant in power station. Therefore, your head of department asked you to investigate and study the possibility of upgrading the power plant in Project-1 to a gas turbine cycle or a combination of both. However, your head of department asked to deliver a report showing you professional evaluation and assessment for gas turbine cycle efficiency. This report will be used to convince the company board committee. Task.1 Your selection was a gas-turbine power plant operating on an ideal Brayton cycle and according to the manufacturing datasheets it has the following specifications: A pressure ratio of 14.77. The gas temperature is 350 K at the compressor inlet and 1500 K at the turbine inlet. Under the assumption of standard air, perform the following: 1. Gas…
