11. Five large hotels in Miami, USA, use their own air-conditioning units, which
have a c.o.p. 3.1. It is proposed that the cooling systems of the five hotels be
substituted with a larger, modern unit that would have a c.o.p. 3.7. The total
installed capacity of the five hotels is 2,600 tons of air-conditioning and the
current systems are in use for 3,200 hours every year. Determine: a) the annual
energy savings from this substitution and b) the annual avoidance of CO₂
emissions if, currently, 72% of the electric energy in the Miami area is
obtained from coal power plants and 28% from nuclear power plants.
If we wanted to supply a world of 10 billion people with an average demand of electricity at 1 kW per person, what surface area of photovoltaic arrays would be required? Compare this to the size of a known city, state or country.
Which of the following will be useful for modelling the process in an air conditioning unit
O No-flow Energy Equation
O Steady Flow Energy Equation
O Fourier's Law
O Newton's law of cooling

On the hottest days the air inside the car can reach 45°C. A temperature of 25°C is expected to be achieved to keep passengers satisfied. A car measures 17 m x 2.5 x 2. In order to make the decision on the air conditioning system to install, the engineering director has asked to calculate: A. Amount of energy to be removed from the car when the air is at 45°C and the car is empty. B. Amount of energy to withdraw when the car is full (approx. 130 people with a volume of 0.06 m3/person). Each person releases 30 kJ while in the car. C. Power of a system that removes the estimated energy A and B in less than 1 minute.arrow_forward

- Hello Sir,Good Morning.I have a question in my homework related thermodynamics lesson. The following below is my question. Please advice. Thank you. Regards,Irfan An air conditioning system is used to keep the house at 65°F when the outside temperature is 85°F. The house gets heat through the walls and windows at a rate of 810 Btu/min, and the rate of heat generation inside the house from occupants, lights, and equipment is 120 Btu/min. Determine the minimum power input required for this air conditioning system.arrow_forwardAn auditorium seating 1600 people is to be maintained at 80oF dry bulb and 65oF wet bulb temperature when outdoor air is at 91oF dry bulb and 75oF wet bulb. Solar heat load is 120,000 Btu/hr and supply air is at 60oF, determine the amount of supply air. (Use sensible heat load of 225 Btu/hr per person)arrow_forward14. A classroom that normally contains 40 people is to be air-conditioned with window air- conditioning units of 5- kW cooling capacity. A person at rest may be assumed to dissipate heat at a rate of about 360 kJ/h. There are 10 light bulbs in the room, each with a rating of 100 W. The rate of heat transfer to the classroom through the walls and the windows is estimated to be 15,000 kJ/h. If the room air is to be maintained at a constant temperature of 21°C, determine the number of window air-conditioning units required.arrow_forward
