water if the entropy is 7.70 kJ/kg K, = 25 kPa, using the
diagram. Then find the values of the enthalpy, , and
if defined.
water, if = 3400 kJ/kg and = 10 MPa, using the diagram.
Then find the values of , , and if defined
In each diagram, list no more than is needed to construct the
phase, but do list the values of the curves/points.
A Carnot-cycle heat pump uses R-134a as refrigerant. Heat is
absorbed from the outside at -10C. It is delivered to the heated
space at 40C. Assume that the R-134a enters the hot-side heat
exchanger as saturated vapor and exits it as saturated liquid.
Show the cycle in the diagram. List the entry to the hot
side heat exchanger as 1, the exit of it as 2, and so on.
Find the quality of the R-134a at the beginning and end of the
isothermal heat addition process at -10C.
Determine the coefficient of performance for the cycle.
Two kilogram R-134a in a piston/cylinder at 40C, 1000 kPa is
expanded in a reversible isothermal process to 100 kPa.
Construct the initial phase of the R-134a in both the
and diagrams. Draw temperature first. In each diagram, list
no more than is needed to construct the phase, but do list the
values of the curves/points used.
Add the final state to the diagrams and then draw the process
in them as a fat curve. (A ``curve'' might have straight parts.)
Find the work and heat transfer.
Water in a piston/cylinder at 400C, 2000 kPa is expanded in a
reversible adiabatic process. The specific work is measured to be
417 kJ/kg out.
Construct the initial phase of the water in both the and
diagrams. In each diagram, list no more than is needed to
construct the phase, but do list the values of the curves/points
used. Watch it: the temperature of the critical point is
374.1C, less than 400C.
Find two intensive variables for the final state. Then
use table A-4, not A-5, to find the saturated value(s) needed
to figure out the phase.
Show the final state, and also the process line as a fat
curve, in the two diagrams.
