In the United States, energy for household heating is generally sold using English units, e.g., therm, gal, and cord. A house in Wisconsin uses 1200 therms of thermal energy during the heating season. Calculate the cost of fuel if the furnace uses (a) natural gas with an efficiency of 70%; (b) No. 2 fuel oil, efficiency 65%; (c) kerosene, efficiency 99.9% (unvented); and (d) wood with l5% moisture with an efficiency of 50%. Use the data in Tables 2.2, 2.7, and 2.13. The efficiencies are based on the HHV. Assume the cost of natural gas is $8/MBtu, the cost of No. 2 fuel oil is $3/gal, the cost of kerosene is $3.50/gal, and the cost of wood is $100/cord. Assume the bulk density of cord wood is 30 lbm/ft3 .

Imagine that today is your first day on the job, and that from now on you will be the engineer responsible for a thermal machine. The machine operates according to the cycle below, functioning as a Rankine cycle. Figure 1. T-S diagram of the Rankine cycle. As a good engineer, you already know that, in order to know how a machine works, it is necessary to know its operating conditions. The boiler operates at a constant pressure equal to 8600 kPa and generates water vapor whose temperature is 400 °C. When passing through the turbine, the steam is expanded isetropically and enters the condenser as a two-phase mixture with a title equal to 0.80. The fluid is condensed at a constant pressure of 10 kPa, and then compressed isentropically, so that the fluid enters the boiler as a subcooled liquid. According to the information given above, determine: a) The change in internal energy (ΔU) and the change in entropy (ΔS) of the cycle. b) The net work recognized by the cycle (WNet). c) The thermal…

Q1. (Reading: Çengel and Boles, Thermodynamics: An Engineering Approach, 8th Ed., Pages 307-311) The amount of energy waste by a refrigerator increases by a number of malpractices. For example; opening the refrigerator door frequently will increase energy waste as the warmer air outside replaces the cool air inside. It is also not recommended to place the hot foods into the refrigerator before cooling them to the room temperature. Imagine a typical household refrigerator with an internal temperature of 4 °C. The refrigerator has a coefficient of performance of 1.4. The internal dimensions of this refrigerator are 186 cm (height) x 84 cm (width) x 75 cm (depth). The half of the refrigerator volume is used for storing food items. The air filling the other half of the refrigator volume contains 0.004 kg moisture/kg air on average. While the moisture content of the air in the kitchen is 0.01 kg/kg air, the temperature and pressure in the kitchen are 23°C and 97 kPa, respectively. Assuming…

Q2. solve all parts A reversed reversible heat engine extracts heat Q1-22 from a cold reservoir at temperature Tcold = 270K to supply heat to a rigid pressure vessel filled with a system of wet steam of mass m=10kg. The arrangement is depicted in Fig. Q2, where heat supplied by the reversed engine causes the pressure of the system to rise from p₁ = 2 bar at state point 1 to p₂ = 10 bar at state point 2. Subsequently, the reversed engine is reversed, and heat is extracted from the steam to produce work W2-1, which returns the system back to state point 1, i.e., the system undergoes a cycle. Information recorded at the state points depicted in the figure is as follows: State point 1: dryness fraction ✗₁ = 0.1 and pressure p₁ = 2 bar. State point 2: P₂ = 10 bar. 2-1 Assume that the only transfers of heat to take place are those labelled in Fig. Q2, i.e., 02, 0, and Additionally, assume that the role of the rigid pressure vessel is solely limited to containment, so that any changes to its…
A group is considering installing a solar power station and has asked you for your recommendation if it should be a photovoltaic system or a solar thermal system. At this stage you are asked not to include cost factors. The single point design condition they have given you is for an incident solar radiation on the collector of 550 W/m2, a surrounding temperature of 18 C. The dead state for this problem should be taken as To = 291 K, Po = 1 bar. You can perform your analysis at steady state conditions. In addition to determining the power output and first law efficiency of the options, you have been requested to determine the exergy destroyed for each of them. The photovoltaic system has an efficiency of 0.15 defined as the power output/incident solar radiation. The basic photovoltaic collector is 1.1 m2 and losses heat from both the front and back surface. The edge area can be neglected. The convective heat transfer coefficient is 10 W/m2 K. The inverter and signal…
