Question 1

Two systems have the same wet bulb temperature at 20 °C. System “A” has Dry bulb temperature of 25 °C since it has a relative humidity of 65%. System “B” has a relative humidity of 30%. What will be its dry bulb temperature?

Question 2

A device containing an ideal gas executes the cycle shown.

This is a.

Question 3

Which information is correct in case of I. C. Engine?

Question 4

A diesel engine is usually more efficient than a spark ignition engine because

Question 5

For the same values of peak pressure, peak temperature and heat rejection, the correct order of efficiencies for Otto. Dual and Diesel cycles is

Question 6

In an air-standard Otto cycle, the compression ratio is 10. The condition at the beginning of the compression process is 100 kPa and 27 °C. Heat added at constant volume is 1500 kJ/kg, while 700 kJ/kg of heat is rejected during the other constant volume process in the cycle. Specific gas constant for air = 0.287 kJ/kgK. The mean effective pressure (in kPa) of the cycle is

Question 7

F or water at 23, dps⁄dTs = 0.189 kPa⁄K (ps is the saturation pressure in kPa and Ts is the saturation temperature in K) and the specific volume of dry saturated vapour is 43.38 m3/kg. Assume that the specific volume of liquid is negligible in comparison with that of vapour. Using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, an estimate of the enthalpy of evaporation of water at 23(in kJ/kg) is __________

Question 8

Consider the Carnot cycle shown. In this 0.5 moles of an ideal monoatomic gas is given for T1 = 500 K, V2 = 2V1 and V3 = 1.5V2. What will be the numerical values for


Question 9

Which combination of the following statements is correct?
P: A gas cools upon expansion only when its Joule–Thomson co–efficient is positive in the temperature range of expansion.
Q: For a system undergoing a process, its entropy remains constant only when the process is reversible.
R: The work done by a closed system in an adiabatic process is a point function.
S: A liquid expands upon freezing when the slope of its fusion curve on Pressure. Temperature diagram is negative.

Question 10

A source at a temperature of 500 K provides 1000 kJ of heat. The temperature of environment is 27 °C. The maximum useful work (in kJ) that can be obtained from the heat source is ________
