Chapter 8.8, Problem 67P
Refrigerant-22 absorbs heat from a cooled space at 50°F as it flows through an evaporator of a refrigeration system. R-22 enters the evaporator at 10°F at a rate of 0.08 lbm/s with a quality of 0.3 and leaves as a saturated vapor at the same pressure. Determine (a) the rate of cooling provided, in Btu/h, (b) the rate of exergy destruction in the evaporator, and (c) the second-law efficiency of the evaporator. Take T0 = 77°F. The properties of R-22 at the inlet and exit of the evaporator are: h1 = 107.5 Btu/lbm, s1 = 0.2851 Btu/lbm·R, h2 = 172.1 Btu/lbm, s2 = 0.4225 Btu/lbm·R.

5. The cooled water from a cooling tower returns to the condenser at 21°C at a mass flow rate of 54.4 kg/s. The air entering at state 1 has h₁ = 47.7 kJ/kg da and w₁ = 0.006 kg v/kg da. The air leaving the cooling tower at state 2 has h₂ = 116.5 kJ/kg da and w₂ = 0.027 kg v/kg da. The makeup water is supplied at 25°C and the mass flow rate of dry air is 54.4 kg da/s. What is the temperature of the warm water entering the tower? Express your answer in °C.
2 kg of Refrigerant-134a contained in a piston-cylinder device undergoes a reversed Carnot cycle. Some important information about the cycle is: ● At the beginning of the adiabatic compression (State 1), the refrigerant is a saturated vapor. ● The adiabatic compression ends when the temperature of the refrigerant is 30 degrees C● The refrigerant is 50% vapor by mass at the end of the isothermal heat rejection process. ● The adiabatic expansion process ends when the pressure of the refrigerant is 132.82kPaConsulting example 7-6 in your text might be helpful in understanding some aspects of this problem. a) Represent this cycle on a T-S diagram. On your diagram, clearly indicate the values of the specific entropy and temperature at every state. b) Explain (briefly) why the process curves take the shapes you indicated on your T-S diagram in part a.
