(B In an air compressor air enters at a 4 m/s, 1 bar,


) 0.5 m3/kg. The exits conditions 7 m/s, 6 bar,
0.12 m3/kg. The internal energy of air is gained
after compression process is 38 kJ/kg. The
system is losses 3000 kJ/min of heat to
surroundings during process. Mass flow rate of
air is 31 kg/min. Calculate (i) shaft work input (ii)
ratio of inlet to outlet areas.
(A Prove the equivalence of Clausius and Kelvin
) statements.
(B
A reversed Carnot cycle operates at either a
) refrigerator or heat pump. In either case, the
power input is 20.8 kW. Calculate the quantity of
heat extracted from the cold body for either
type of machine. In both case 3500 kJ/min heat
is delivered by the machine. In case of the
refrigerator the heat is transferred to the
surroundings while in case of heat pump, the
space is to be heated. What is their respective
COP? If the temperature of cold body is 0C for
refrigerator and 5C for heat pump what will be
respective temperature of surrounding for
refrigerator and heated space for heat pump?
What reduction in heat rejection temperature
would be achieved by
ORdoubling the COP for
(A Define the term absolute zero of temperature
) and show how a scale of temperature can be
devised from the operation of reversible heat
engines.
