A refrigeration cycle operating between two reservoirs receives energy QC from a cold reservoir at TC = 250 K and rejects energy QH to a hot reservoir TH = 350 K. For each of the following cases determine whether the cycle operates reversibly, irreversibly, or is impossible: (a) QC = 1500 kJ, QH = 2200 kJ, (b) QC = 1500 kJ, Wcycle = 120 kJ, (c) QH = 1600 kJ, Wcycle = 500 kJ, (d) COP = 6.

What difference(s) did you notice using a pneumatic circuit over hydraulic circuit. explain why the pneumatic piston stumbles when it hits an obstacle.

Apipe with an outside diameter of 15 cm is exposed to an ambient air and surrounding temperature of -20°c. the pipe has an outer surface temperature of 65°c and an emissivity of 0.85. if the rate of heat loss from the pipe surface is 0.95 kw per meter of length, the external convective heat transfer coefficient (h) is: (a) 12.5 w/m"k (b) 18.6 w/mk (c) 23.7 w/mk (d) 27.9 w/mk (e) 33.5 w/mk

You are making beer. the first step is filling the glass carboy with the liquid wort. the internal diameter of the carboy is 15 in., and you wish to fill it up to a depth of 2 ft. if your wort is drawn from the kettle using a siphon process that flows at 3 gpm, how long will it take to fill?
