Refrigerationa.) Explain why you can’t cool down your kitchen by leaving your refrigerator or freezer door open with your refrigerator plugged in for an extended period of time.b.) The condenser of a home refrigerator is commonly underneath the appliance, thus the condensing refrigerant exchanges heat with household air, which averages 70oF. It is proposed toreconfigure a refrigerator so that the condenser is in the garage, where the average yearly temperature is about 50oF. Assume a freezer temperature of 0oF, a minimum temperature difference of 10K for heat transfer, and an actual coefficient of performance of 60% that of a Carnot cycle. Calculate the Coefficient of Performance for both configurations and discuss the pros and cons of this proposal.c.) Which is the most effective way to increase the coefficient of performance of a Carnot refrigerator: to increase TC with TH held constant or to decrease TH with TC held constant? Justify mathematically. For a real refrigerator, do…

A mining pit about 5000ft below sea level was flooding as a result of heavy down pour. The situation is such that if quick and drastic measures are not taken severe damage could be cause to lives and properties. As the pit superintendent (mining engineer) a) What kind of pump is suitable for this kind of operation and why? In a power plant, the steam from the boiler reaches the turbines at a temperature of 700oC. The spent steam leaves the turbine at 100oC. b) Calculate the maximum efficiency of the turbine As the project consultant for Green court engineering consults, you have been contracted by Total power development authority to present a detailed proposal on an intended project to explore an additional generation units to increase capacity.
