Chapter 11.10, Problem 29P
Bananas are to be cooled from 28°C to 12°C at a rate of 1330 kg/h by a refrigerator that operates on a vapor-compression refrigeration cycle. The power input to the refrigerator is 8.6 kW. Determine (a) the rate of heat absorbed from the bananas, in kJ/h, and the COP, (b) the minimum power input to the refrigerator, and (c) the second-law efficiency and the exergy destruction for the cycle. The specific heat of bananas above freezing is 3.35 kJ/kg·°C.

- The thin-walled open cross section shown is transmitting torque 7. The angle of twist ₁ per unit length of each leg can be determined separately using the equation 01 = 3Ti GLIC 3 where G is the shear modulus, ₁ is the angle of twist per unit length, T is torque, and L is the length of the median line. In this case, i = 1, 2, 3, and T; represents the torque in leg i.
