An air–standard Stirling cycle operates with a maximum pressure of 600 psia and aminimum pressure of 10 psia. The maximum volume of the air is 10 times the minimum volume. The temperature during the heat rejection process is 100 F. Calculate the specific heat added to andrejected by this cycle, as well as the net specific work produced by the cycle. Use constant specificheats at room temperature.

Determine the time of the day and month of the year at which the peak sensible cooling load occurs for a top floor, north-eastern corner room of an office building in durban for the following conditions: floor area: 8 x 8 x 3 m east and north walls: 115 mm face brick (outside), 20 mm air space, 115 mm ordinary brick (inside) with 15 mm plaster roof construction: suspended plasterboard ceiling, 450 mm air space, 150 mm concrete, 75mm screed, waterproofing no heat transfer across other surfaces window area 3x 1,5 m high in north wall only. ordinary glass with venetian blinds. lights and occupants : from 07: 00 to 18: 00 average light density: 25 w/m2 number of occupants : 5 seated, light office work room temperature 24°c
