a. Create a schematic representation of your system and draw the boundary you would use to solve the questions in this problem.

b. Represent the process on a T-s diagram.

c. Calculate the minimum work required by this compressor, in hp. Note: the solution to this problem requires interpolations; use your textbook tables. You answer will also be evaluated on its accuracy.

Analytical Solution steps

For a flat plate solar collector, with water as the working fluid, consider a design for heating water from 22°C to 60°C. The temperature of the air and the surroundings is 310 K. The system is designed for a flow rate of 0.03 gpm. The water exhibits fully developed, laminar flow in a 0.05 diameter pipe, with a constant surface flux. The collector plate experiences losses due to convection and radiation, which can be accounted for using a total heat transfer coefficient of 0.02 kW/m2 K. Use a solar resource map to find the annual, average incident solar radiation, G, for Dallas, TX. Assume a black nickel oxide plated metal surface for the collector. Use a heat removal factor of 0.95

Determine the required size of the solar collector.

Consider an ideal Rankine cycle using water with a high-pressure side of the cycle at a supercritical pressure. Such a

cycle has a potential advantage of minimizing local temperature differences between the fluids in the steam

generator, such as the instance in which the high-temperature energy source is the hot exhaust gas from a gas-

turbine engine. Calculate the thermal efficiency of the cycle if the state entering the turbine is 30 MPa, 550°C, and

the condenser pressure is 5 kPa. What is the steam quality at the turbine exit?

Q5. State whether the following are true or false with brief justifications:

(i) The maximum thermal efficiency for any power cycle operating between two thermal reservoirs at temperatures T1 and T2 (T1 > T2) is 1- T2/T1.
(ii) Transferring heat from a cold object to a hot object is forbidden according to the Clausius statement of the second law.

(iii) A cycle that does not violate the Kelvin-Planck statement cannot violate the Clausius statement of the second law.
(iv) For a reversible power cycle, if we hold the temperature of the cold reservoir (TC) constant, we can increase the thermal efficiency ? to any value smaller than 1 (100%) by varying TH.

(v) A system interacting with air at different heights in the atmosphere is interacting with only one thermal reservoir, i.e., the atmosphere.
