Problem 2- Refrigeration After returning from the store you place 4 bottles of water, 3 kg each, in the refrigerator. The water is initially at 25 °C and needs to be cooled to 10 °C. The refrigerator has a COP of 1.8 and a power input of 500 W. How long will it take for the refrigerator to cool the water? Is your calculation realistic? Explain.
An auditorium is to be maintained at a temperature of 26℃ DB and 50% RH. Air is to be supplied at a temperature not lower than 15℃ DB. The sensible heat gain is 110 kW and the latent heat gain is 37.5 kW. Take the outdoor ventilating air as 25% by weight of the air from the room (meaning 75% of the airconditioned supply air is recirculated) and is at 35℃ DB and 60% RH. Determine the refrigerating load in Tons of Refrigeration (TR).
In a psychrometric process, the sensible heat added is 30 kJ/s and the latent heat added is 20 kJ/s. The sensible heat factor for the process will be
A certain refrigerator has a COP of 5.00. When the refrigerator is running, its power input is 500 W. A sample of water of mass 500 g and temperature 20.0°C is placed in the freezer compartment. Assume all other parts of the refrigerator stay at the same temperature and there is no leakage of energy from the exterior, so the operation of the refrigerator results only in energy being extracted from the water. -->Compare the cost to make 44 kg of ice using two different refrigerators; one has a COP of 5.00 and the other has a COP of 6.00. Electricity costs $0.10 per kWh. Using the same assumptions given in the example, find the cost difference (in dollars) between the refrigerators to freeze the water.
