(i) Write the S.L units of kinetic viscosity, latent heat, specific enthalpy and specific entropy.
(j) How the Cop of a heat pump is related to that of a refrigerator ? Prove it.
2. (a) 1.5 kg of liquid having a constant specific heat of 2.5 kJ/kgK is stirred in a well insulated chamber. The temperature rises by 15 C. Find the change in internal energy and work done during the process. 4
(b) At the begining of the compression stroke of a two cylinder internal combustion engine the air is at a pressure of 101.325 KPa. Compression reduces the vofume to 1/5 of its original volume and the compression index is 1.2. The bore and stroke of each cylinder is 0.15 m and 0.25 m respectively. If each cylinder undergoes
500 compression strokes per minute, determine the power absorbed in kW by the engine during compression. 6 $/ (a) The steam supply to an engine comprises two streams which mix before entering the engine. One stream is supplied at the rate of 0.01 kg/s with an enthalpy of 2952 kj/kg and a velocity of 20 m/s. The other stream is supplied at 0.1 kg/s with an enthalpy of 2569 kJ/kg and a velocity of 120 m/s. At | the exit from the engine the fluid leaves as two streams, one of water at the rate of W 0.001 kg/s with an enthalpy of 420 kJ/kg and the other of stream. The engine develops a shaft power of 25 kW. Neglecting the fluid velocities at the exit and the heat transfer, find out the enthalpy of the second exit stream. 6 |
(b) What is free expansion ? Why does it have zero work transfer ? 4 A heat engine operating between two reservoirs at 1000 K and 300 K is used to drive a heat pump which extracts heat from the reservoir at 300 K at a rate twice that at which the engine rejects heat to it. If the efficiency of the engine is 40% of the maximum possible and the COP of the heat pump is 50% of the maximum possible. L What is the temperature of the reservoir to which the heat pump rejects'heat ? What is the rate of heat rejection from the heat pump if the rate of heat supply to the engine is 50 kW? 10 5. Steam flows through a small turbine at the rate of 5000 kg/hr entering at 15 bar, 300 C and leaving at 0.1 bar with 4% moisture. The steam enters at 80 m/s at a point 2 m above the discharge and leaves at 40 m/s. Compute the |
y (a) Show that rhe efficiency of a reversible engine is independent of nature oramount of the working fluid going ihrough Ihecycle.
0,5 kg of air is expanded reversiibfy and adiabaticafly from 074 MPa and'527 Kto SO KPa and then compressed at constant pressure to the origfna! volume. Sketch the processes on the p-v and T-s planes. Compute the heat transfer and work transfer tor the whole path. 10
