Question

you are asked to design a heating system for a
swimming pool that is 2m deep 25 m long and 25 m
wide. your client desires that the heating system to
be large enough to raise the water temperature from
20 to 30° C in 3h.the rate of heat loss from the water
to the air at the outdoor design conditions is
determined to be 960W/m^2 and the heater must
also be able to maintain the pool at 30° C at those
conditions.heat loses to the ground are expected to
be small and can be disregarded.the heater
considered is a natural gas furnace whose efficiency
is 80 percent. what heater size (in kW input) would
you recommend to your client?

169 g of solid water (i.e. ice), at -17 °C, is placed into a sealed, insulated container with a volume of 0.29 m^3. A 1457 W heater is used to heat and change the phase of the sample until it is a gaseous water (i.e. steam). The heater runs for 433 s. What is the pressure, in kPa, of the gaseous water in the container at the end of the heating process? Round your answer to the first decimal place.

Mc Graw Hill It is commonly recommended that hot foods be cooled first to room temperature by simply waiting a while before they are put into the refrigerator to save energy. Despite this commonsense recommendation, a person keeps cooking a large pan of stew three times a week and putting the pan into the refrigerator while it is still hot, thinking that the money saved is probably too little. But he says he can be convinced if you can show that the money saved is significant. The average mass of the pan and its contents is 5 kg. The average temperature of the kitchen is 23°C, and the average temperature of the food is 95°C when it is taken off the stove. The refrigerated space is maintained at 3°C, and the average specific heat of the food and the pan can be taken to be 3.9 kJ/kg-°C. If the refrigerator has a coefficient of performance of 1.5 and the cost of electricity is $0.165/kWh, determine how much this person will save a year by waiting for the food to cool to room temperature…

You are asked to assess the validity of a power-generating device. The device supposedly operates steadily by receiving 256 kW via heat transfer at 4.5 °C, receiving 370 kW via heat transfer at 115 °C, and rejecting 200 kW via heat transfer at -180 °C. The device generates electrical power in response to these various heat transfers. a. determine its electrical power output, in kW. b. Is the device feasible? Does it violate 1st and/or 2nd law of thermodynamics?
