A sample of 5.25 kilograms of water at 6.00°C is placed in the freezer. Assuming all energy removed from the freezer is removed from the water, how long does the 1/5 horsepower (HP) motor (1 HP = 746 Watts) have to run to cool all of the liquid to ice at 0.00°C? The freezer has a COP of 5.00.
A styrofoam container used as a picnic cooler
contains a block of ice at 0°C.
If 564 g of ice melts in 1 hour, how much
heat energy per second is passing through the
walls of the container? The heat of fusion of

Answer in units of W.
You recently bought an aluminum (C = 0.9 J/g-K) kettle with a mass of 2 kg. You used the kettle to heat water (C = 4.184 J/g-K). The kettle contains water (1.5 kg). The kettle was heated using an induction stove from 20°C to 85°C. The water is then used for coffee. If no heat is lost to the surroundings, what is the total heat added to raise the temperature?

Your client desires that the heating system be large enough to raise the water temperature from 20 to 30°C in 3 h. The rate of heat loss from the water to the air at the outdoor design conditions is determined to be 960 W/m2, and the heater must also be able to maintain the pool at 30°C at those conditions. Heat losses 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.

- A heat exchanger is to heat water (cp = 4.18 kJ/kg·°C) from 25 to 60°C at a rate of 0.2 kg/s. The heating is to be accomplished by geothermal water (cp = 4.31 kJ/kg·°C) available at 140°C at a mass flow rate of 0.3 kg/s. Determine the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger and the exit temperature of geothermal water.arrow_forwardThe electric heating systems used in many houses consist of a simple duct with resistance heaters. Air is heated as it flows over resistance wires. Consider a 15-kW electric heating system. Air enters the heating section at 100 kPa and 17°C with a volume flow rate of 150 m3/min. If heat is lost from the air in the duct to the surroundings at a rate of 200 W, determine the exit temperature of air.arrow_forwardA classroom has dimensions 8.00 m x 10.00 m x 3.00 m.
