A 1.8-m3 rigid tank initially contains air at 100 kPa and 22°C. The tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. Air is flowing in the supply line at 600 kPa and 22°C. The valve is opened, and air is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. A thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the air temperature at the final state is 77°C.

Required:
Determine:
a. the mass of air that has entered the tank.
b. the amount of heat transfer.

An inventor claims to have developed a reversed heat engine (ie. a heat pump) which is able to deliver 10 kj heat into the room at 20°c from outside ambient temperature of -10°c by consuming only 2 kj electricity in winter. this claim is a)-impossible b)-possible only if the heat pump is ideal c)-practically possible d)-unable to be assessed as it depends on the working fluid used in the heat pump.

Aheat pump using refrigerant-134a heats a house by using underground water at 8°c as the heat source. the house is losing heat at a rate of 60,000 kj/h. the refrigerant enters the compressor at 280 kpa and 0°c, and it leaves at 1 mpa and 60°c. the refrigerant exits the condenser at 30°c. determine: (a) the power input to the heat pump, (b) the rate of heat absorption from the water, and (c) the increase in electric power input if an electric resistance heater is used instead of a heat pump
