As shown in the figure below, a jacketed container is used to cool the process stream. Some information is given for this process;
(i) The volume of liquid inside the tank, V and the volume of refrigerant in the jacket, VJ, are constant. The volumetric flow rate qF is constant. But qJ changes over time.
(ii) the heat transfer coefficients through the jacketed container are negligible.
(iii) the tank contents and jacket contents are well mixed and have significant heat capacitances.
(iv) the thermal capacitances of the tank wall and jacket wall are negligible.
(v) The overall heat transfer coefficient used for heat conduction between the tank liquid and the coolant varies with the coolant flow rate:
U = K.qJ0,8
Here, U (Btu / hr.ft2.0F), qJ (ft3 / hr), K (constant)
Derive the dynamic model for this system. Perform a degree of freedom analysis. Do not forget to write down any additional assumptions!

- THERMODYNAMICS Water enters the tube of a cold plate at 70 degrees fahrenheit with an average velocity of 53 feet per minute and exits at 122 degrees fahrenheit. The tubes have a 0.25 in diameter. Determine the amount of heat created by the electronic devices put on the cold plate assuming the 12 percent of the heat generated is lost from the components to the surroundings through convection and radiation and the remaining 88 percent is removed by the cooling water.arrow_forwardpls answer completelyarrow_forwardb andcarrow_forward

Despite this commonsense recommendation, a person keeps cooking a large pan of stew three times a week and putting the pan into the refrigerator while it is still hot, thinking that the money saved is probably too little. But he says he can be convinced if you can show that the money saved is significant. The average mass of the pan and its contents is 5 kg. The average temperature of the kitchen is 23°C, and the average temperature of the food is 95°C when it is taken off the stove. The refrigerated space is maintained at 3°C, and the average specific heat of the food and the pan can be taken to be 3.9 kJ/kg-°C. If the refrigerator has a coefficient of performance of 1.5 and the cost of electricity is $0.165/kWh, determine how much this person will save a year by waiting for the food to cool to room temperature…arrow_forward
