A geothermal heat pump absorbs 15 KJ/s of heat from the Earth 15 m below a house. This heat pump uses a 7.45 kJ/s compressor.

a) Calculate the COP of the heat pump.
b) In the summer, the cycle is reversed to cool the house. Calculate the COP of the cycle when it is operated as an air-conditioner assuming the working fluid rejects 15 Btu/s to the Earth.

Ahot wire operates at a temperature of 200°c while the air temperature is 20°c. the hot wire element is a tungsten wire of 5 um diameter and 2 mm in length. plot using excel current, heat transfer and heat generated by the wire for air velocity varying from 1-10 m/s in steps of lm/s? matlab the sensor voltage output, resistance, or assume nu 0.989 re033pr13 take air properties at tr (200°c20°c)/2 = 110°c properties of tungsten: c 0.13 kj/kg.k 3 p 19250 kg/m k (thermal conductivity) = 174 w/m.k

Consider a power plant with water as the working fluid that operates on an ideal rankine cycle. it has a net power output of 45mw. superheated steam enters the turbine at 7mpa and 500°c (h=3411.4 kj/kg; s=6.8 kj/kg k) and is cooled in the condenser at a pressure of 10 kpa by running cooling water from a lake through the tubes of the condenser at a rate of 2000 kg/s. (a) show the cycle on a t-s diagram (a right schematic is fine - you do not need to calculate the temperatures at each point); (b)-determine the work done by the turbine and the pump in kj/kg; (c)-the mass flow rate of water used by the power plant; (d)-the thermal efficiency of the cycle; (e)-the temperature rise of the cooling water. assume the cooling water is incompressible with cp 4.18 kj/kg°c.

Aflow moves in the x direction with a velocity of 10 m/s from 0 to 0.1 second and then reverses direction with the same speed from 0.1 to 0.2 second. sketch the pathline strating from x-0 and the streak! ine with dye introduced at x=0. show the streamlines for the first time interval and the second time interval.
