Strengthening of Alloys

Strengthening of the alloys is required as metals become weak due to various lattice defects, metal bonding phenomena. The strength of the metals is not enough for any mechanical work. The internal dislocations of any metals arise due to forming processes. Due to the movement of these dislocations, the metals are plastically deformed.

Question

Steam or water substance is used in a Carnot refrigeration cycle. The evaporator temperature is
300 K and the condenser temperature is 500 K. During condensation the steam changes from a
saturated vapor to a saturated liquid. Calculate (a) the compressor work (kJ/kg) required, (b)
the net work (kJ/kg) per cycle, (c) the coefficient of performance.
