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…

The molar heat capacities of substances varies with temperature. The general function for determining the molar heat capacity is given below; Cp m = (a + bT + cT 2 )R . In case of a gas where a = 3.245, b = 7.108 x10^ -4 K ^-1 , and c = -4.06 x10 ^-8 K^ -2 for temperatures in the range of 800 Kelvins to 1,500 Kelvins. What is the change in the enthalpy (in KiloJoules per Kelvin per mole) for two moles of this gas at 1,500 kelvins? NOTE: Express answer in THREE SIGNIFICANT FIGURES.
As shown in Figure 1, a vertical piston-cylinder assembly containing a gas is placed on a hot plate. The piston with a mass of 43 kg initially rests on the stops. With the onset of heating, the gas pressure increases. At what pressure, in bar, does the piston start rising? The piston moves smoothly in the cylinder and g=9.81 m/s?. Patm = 1 bar Stops Piston A = 0.01 m2 Gas Hot plate Figure 1: A vertical piston-cylinder assembly Answer:

what are thermodynamic properties
* Your answer is incorrect. A gas undergoes a process in a piston-cylinder assembly during which the pressure-specific volume relation is pv¹.2 = constant. The mass of the gas is 0.4 lb and the following data are known: p₁ = 160 lbf/in.², V₁ = 1 ft³, and p2 = 300 lbf/in.² During the process, heat transfer from the gas is 2.1 Btu. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the change in specific internal energy of the gas, in Btu/lb. Δu = i | 76.53 Btu/lb
