A power plant burns natural gas to supply heat to a heat engine which rejects heat to the adjacent river. The power plant produces 800 MW of electrical power and has a thermal efficiency of 38%. Determine the heat transfer rates from the natural gas and to the river, in MW.

heat transfer from natural gas is 2105.26 MW

heat transfer to river is 1305.26 MW

Explanation:

given data

power output Wn = 800 MW

efficiency = 38%

solution

we know that efficiency is express as

   ......................1

put here value we get

38% =  

Qin  = 2105.26 MW

so heat supply is 2105.26

so we can say

Wn = Qin - Qout

800 = 2105.26 - Qout

Qout = 2105.26 - 800

Qout = 1305.26 MW

so heat transfer from natural gas is 2105.26 MW

and heat transfer to river is 1305.26 MW

the equation above shows how temperature f, measured in degrees fahrenheit, relates to a temperature c, measured in degrees celsius. based on the equation, which of the following must be true?

a temperature increase of 1 degree fahrenheit is equivalent to a temperature increase of

5

9

degree celsius.

a temperature increase of 1 degree celsius is equivalent to a temperature increase of 1.8 degrees fahrenheit.

a temperature increase of

5

9

degree fahrenheit is equivalent to a temperature increase of 1 degree celsius.

a) i only

b) ii only

c) iii only

d) i and ii only
