Consider the identical computer to the one in question 2, but now the sectors are transferred from disk cache to main memory by using processor-involved software transfers, instead of dma. the transfers are done one word at a time by a loop in assembly of the form: loop: lw … rom memory-mapped disk cache address */ to main memory*/ /* f sw … addi.. bnez _loop /* branch back to lw for next iteration for next word *,/ *register increment for address register to main memory* memory mapped locations (the loads above) are not cached by the processor caches. further, the processor caches use write through for main memory locations. (in a write-through cache, all stores are written to main memory immediately instead of waiting for eviction of that hence both the loads and stores use the bus. the branch predictor is perfect, and thus there are no stalls from control hazards. what is the total transfer time in software for the sector? how many times faster is dma in question 2 compared to this software transfer? complet all parts and show work

Refrigerant-134a enters the compressor of a refrigerator as superheated vapor at 0.14 mpa and -10°c at a rate of 0.05 ka/s and leaves at 0.8 mpa and 50°c. the refrigerant is cooied in the condenser to 0.72 mpa and 26'c. it is then throttled to 0.15 mpa. sketch the t-s diagram for the system and evaluate: 6) the rate of heat removai from the refrigerated space (kw), it) the power input to the compressor (kw), ii) the isentropic efficiency of the compressor (%), and iv) the cop of the refrigerator.

Acommercial grade cubical freezer, 4 m on a side, has a composite wall consisting of an exterior sheet of 5.0-mm thick plain carbon steel (kst= 60.5 w/m k), an intermediate layer of 100-mm thick polyurethane insulation (kins 0.02 w/m k), and an inner sheet of 5.0- mm thick aluminium alloy (kal polyurethane insulation and both metallic sheets are each characterized by a thermal contact resistance of r 2.5 x 104 m2 k/w. (a) what is the steady-state cooling load that must be maintained by the refrigerator under conditions for which the outer and inner surface temperatures are 25°c and -5°c, respectively? (b) for power saving purpose, which wall material should be increased/reduced in. thickness in order to reduce 50% of the cooling load found in part (a)? redesign the thickness of the proposed material. 177 w/m-k). adhesive interfaces between the q=575.93 w
