The container truck engine operated on the diesel cycle with a compression ratio of 12. Assume the mass of air in the engine is conserved. At the start of the compression process, the air is at 1 atm and 30 oC. 400 kJ/kg of heat is removed from the air during the constant-volume heat rejection process. The ratio of V3/V4 is 0.2 Through the diesel cycle, 20% of the work done by the air is used to operate the vehicle's refrigeration and heat pump system. One diesel cycle took 0.7s to complete. The heat rejection from the refrigeration and heat pump system is 800 kJ. The refrigeration system uses R-134a as the working fluid and operates between 100 kPa and 1200 kPa pressure limits. cp = 1.005 kJ/kg/K, cv = 0.7177 kJ/kg/K, R = 8.314J/mol/K, Molecular mass of air= 29g/mol. Calculate the temperature at the start of the heat rejection process.
