Air is cooled from 300 K to 273 K as it flows steadily through a duct....

Air is cooled from 300 K to 273 K as it flows steadily through a duct. Frictional dissipation may be neglected. Cooling is achieved by removing heat via a heat pump. The work requirement is 1.15 times that of a reversible heat pump operating between 263 and 310 K. For each mole of air flowing through the duct, calculate: Air can be assumed an ideal gas with a constant heat capacity cP of 3.50R. The temperature of the surroundings is...

Air flows through a 0.25-m-diameter duct. At the inlet the velocity is 300 m/s, and the stagnation temperature is 90°C. If the Mach number at the exit is 0.3, determine the direction and the rate of heat transfer. For the same conditions at the inlet, determine the amount of heat that must be transferred to the system if the flow is to be sonic at the exit of the duct.
