A certain car has 14 L of liquid coolant circulating at a temperature of 95 degrees Celsius through the engine’s cooling system. Assume that, in this normal condition, the coolant completely fills the 3.5 L volume of the aluminum radiator and the 10.5 L internal cavities within the aluminum engine. When a car overheats, the radiator, engine, and coolant expand and a small reservoir connected to the radiator catches any resultant coolant overflow. Estimate how much coolant overflows to the reservoir if the system goes from 95 degrees Celsius to 106 degrees Celsius. Model the radiator and engine as hollow shells of aluminum. The coefficient of volume expansion for coolant is 410x10^-6 degrees Celsius

Consider a natural gas with a molar composition of 92% methane, 5% ethane and 3% propane. An intercooled compressor in the pumping station for CNG compresses the gas from 1 bar and 300K to a pressure of 300 bar, 320K. The heat removed by the intercooler is 875 kW when the flow rate of natural gas is 0.4 kg/s. Compute the power input required to run the compressor, if the heat losses other than that removed by the intercooler can be neglected. Also compute the rate of exergy destruction in the intercooled compressor. Use the following data for the gases, and use Kay's rule for the natural gas at the high pressure. Use the chart for enthalpy correction.

- The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that up to 10 percent of the energy use of a house can be saved by caulking and weatherstripping doors and windows to reduce air leaks at a cost of about $90 for materials for an average home with 12 windows and 2 doors. Caulking and weatherstripping every gas-heated home properly would save enough energy to heat about 4 million homes. The savings can be increased by installing storm windows.
