Question 1

A system expands from state ‘1’ (P1, V1, T1) to the state ‘2’ (P2, V2, T2) in a reversible non-flow process as defined below
A- A constant-pressure process followed by a constant-volume process
B- A constant-volume process followed by a constant-pressure process
Work done ratio of the above two processes is _________, if

Question 2

For a liquid, at a temperature of 8 0the vapor pressure is 2.7 kPa. Its enthalpy of vaporization is constant and equals 42700 kJ/kmol. At a vapor pressure of 13.5 kPa, the temperature of the vapor (in 0C) will be____.

Take gas constant R=8.314 kJ/kmol-K

Question 3

A rigid container has  air initially at 1.5 bar, 27 brought to a final temperature of 127 by heat transfer from a thermal reservoir at 227. The irreversibility (in kJ/kg) is ______. (atmospheric temperature = 27, atmospheric pressure = 1 bar, cp = 1.005 kJ/kgK, cv = 0.718 kJ/kgK)

Question 4

What is the maximum work that can be obtained, if one kg of water at 90 °C is cooled to ambient temperature of 27 °C (Specific heat of water = 4.18 kJ/kg-K).

Question 5

Outside atmospheric air at 35oC is cooled by an air-conditioner upto 15oC with a mass flow rate of 1 kg/s. what will be the amount of power needed to operate this air-conditioner(Assume air-conditioner to be a reversible refrigerator)?

Question 6

A lump of steel of mass 50 kg is at a temperature of 2270C. What will be the maximum possible work (in kJ) that can be obtained from it, when the ambient temperature is 270C? Given specific heat of steel =0.5 kJ/kgK.
