A Carnot heat engine receives heat from a reservoir at 900degreeC at a rate of 800 kJ/min and rejects the waste heat to the ambient air at 27degreeC. The entire work output of the heat engine is used to drive a refrigerator that removes heat from the refrigerated space at -5degreeC and transfers it to the same ambient air at 27degreeC. Determine the maximum rate of heat removal from the refrigerated space and the total rate of heat rejection to the ambient air. Answers, 4982 kJ/min. 5782 kJ/min

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
