An ideal vapor compression refrigeration cycle using r134a as the refrigerant is being used to cool a house. It provides 3 refrigeration tons ≈ 10.5kW of cooling (heat removal from the house air). The refrigerant in the evaporator operates at 400kPa while in the condenser it is at 1000kPa. Treat the surroundings as a thermal reservoir at 33◦C and the air in the house as a thermal reservoir at 19◦C. All reservoirs are at 100kPa.

2. How fast is exergy destroyed (kJ/s) in each process (evaporator, condenser, throttle, compressor)?

3. Which process has the lowest second law efficiency?

4. What is the rate of exergy destruction (kJ/s) for the cycle?

Consider the flow of a liquid metal past a flat plate (Pr << 1). We have shown that for a constant wall teemperature, T_o, the Nusselt number is given by Nu = 0.564*(Re^1/2)*(Pr^1/2). Show that if the surface is not a constant temperature, but is instead providing a constant heat flux, that the Nusselt number becomes Nu = 0.886*(Re^1/2)*(Pr^1/2). Start with the following expression for the temperature profile within a semi-infinite body with a constant heat flux boundary condition T - T_o = (q_s / k)[ ((4*alpha*t) / pi)^1/2 * exp(-x^2 / (4*alpha*t)) - x*erfc( x / (4*alpha*t)^1/2 ) ].
