The steady-state data listed below are claimed for a power cycle operating between hot and cold reservoirs at 1200 K and 400 K, respectively. For each case, evaluate the net power developed by the cycle, in kW, and the thermal efficiency. Also in each case apply the equation below on a time-rate basis to determine whether the cycle operates reversibly, operates irreversibly, or is impossible.
(a) Qh(dot)=600 kW, Qc(dot)=400 kW
(b) Qh(dot)=600 kW, Qc(dot)=0 kW
(c) Qh(dot)=600 kW, Qc(dot)=200 kW

∮ (δQ/T)_b = -σ_cycle

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.

An external consultant recommends that a plant installs a bank of capacitors for power factor correction. this will reduce the peak electrical demand charges by an average of 93 kw every month. the plant current pays $13 per kw in peak demand charges. the capacitor bank will include 223 kw of fixed capacitors, and 183 of variable capacitors. the fixed capacitors cost $59 per kw, and the variable capacitors will cost $65 per kw. the consultant charges 21% of the equipment costs to install the capacitors. because this project will reduce the demand for the electric utility, they are prepared to provide a one-time rebate of $42 per kw of reduced demand. what is the simple payback period for this project (in years)?
