Ejercicio 5.39

The preliminary design of a space station calls for a power cycle that at steady state receives energy
by heat transfer at TH 600 K from a nuclear source and rejects energy to space by thermal radiation
according to Eq. 2.33. For the radiative surface, the temperature is TC, the emissivity is 0.6, and the
surface receives no radiation from any source. The thermal efficiency of the power cycle is one-half
that of a reversible power cycle operating between reservoirs at TH and TC.

(a) For TC 400 K, determine the net power developed per unit of radiator surface
area, in kW/m2, and the thermal efficiency.

(b) Plot and the thermal efficiency versus TC, and determine the maximum value of
.

(c) Determine the range of temperatures TC, in K, for wich is within 2 percent of the
maximum value obtained in part (b).

The Stefan-Boltzmann constant is 5.67 X 10-8 W/m2K4Procedimiento.

Procedimiento.

Ejercicio 5.53

At steady state, a refrigerator whose coefficient of performance is 3 removes energy by heat transfer
from a freezer compartment at 0°C at the rate of 6000 kJ/h and discharges energy by heat transfer to
the surroundings, which are at 20°C.

(a) Determine the power input to the refrigerator and compare with the power input required by
a reversible refrigeration cycle operating between reservoirs at these two temperatures.

(b) If electricity cost 8 cents per kW hr, determine the actual and minimum theoretical operating
costs, each in $/day.

8 cents per kW hr:

(a) Determine the actual operating cost and the minimum theoretical operating cost, each in
$/day.

(b) Compare results of part (a) with the cost of electrical resistance heating.

Ejercicio 5.59

A heat pump maintains a dwelling at temperature T when the outside temperature averages 5°C. The
heat transfer rate through the walls and roof is 2,000 kJ/h per degree of temperature difference
between the inside and outside. If electricity costs 8 cents per-kW hr:

(a) Determine the minimum theoretical operating cost for each day of operation when T= 20°C.

(b) Plot the minimum theoretical operating cost for each day of operation as a function of T
ranging from 18 to 23°C.

Ejercicio 5.60

A heat pump maintains a dwelling at temperature T when the outside temperature T when the outside
temperature is 20°F. The heat transfer rate through tha walls and roof is 1500 Btu/h per degree
temperature difference between the inside and outside.

(a) If the electricity costs 8 cents per-kW h, plot the minimum theoretical operating cost for
each day of operation for T ranging from 68 to 72 °F.

(b) If T=70°F, plot the minimum theoretical operating cost for each day of operation for a cost
of electricity ranging from 4 to 12 cents per-kW hr.
