Applied Thermodynamics TDA-301T 2012 Assignment 3

This document contains the questions and problems from an applied thermodynamics assignment. It includes 5 questions related to thermodynamic systems: 1) A boiler system that produces steam to drive a turbine and supply a steam reforming process 2) Designing a vapor-compression refrigeration system to cool a room to -10°C with 20kW capacity using cooling water at 20°C to reject heat. 3) Three additional questions refer to problems in a Sandler Thermodynamics textbook.

APPLIED THERMODYNAMICS TDA-301T 2012 Assignment 3

Question 1 Sandler Thermodynamics, Question 2 Sandler Thermodynamics, Question 3 Sandler Thermodynamics, Question 4

(20 points) Problem 5.1 (20 points) Problem 5.4 (20 points) Problem 5.8 (20 points)

A boiler is to be fed with high pressure water to produce steam. 40 Kg/sec of this steam is to be used in a backpressure turbine of 80% efficiency, discharging vapor to a steam reforming process that consumes it. The discharge pressure is 1Mpa. The other part of the steam (50 Kg/s) is sent to a turbine discharging at atmospheric pressure. This outlet steam is then condensed and fed to the boiler through a pump. a) Draw a flow sheet of this system. b) What is the total amount of work produced? c) What is the temperature of the steam entering the steam reforming process? d) Calculate the amount of heat from fuel needed if the efficiency of the boiler is 80%. Question 5 (20 points)

Design a vapor-compression refrigeration system to cool a room which is at -10oC, with up to 20 KW of capacity. You can consider you can use cooling water at 20 oC to reject heat. You must choose a refrigerant (Go to http://webbook.nist.gov/chemistry/fluid to get the saturation properties in pressure increments).
