A steam turbine has isentropic efficiency of 0.8. Isentropically, it is supposed to deliver work of 100 kW. What is the actual work delivered by the turbine? A heat pump has a COP of 2.2. It takes 5 kW electric power. What is the heat delivery rate to the room being heated in kW? Heat pump is used for winter heating of a room. A refrigerator takes 5 kW electric power. It extracts 3 kW of heat from the space being cooled a. What is the heat delivery rate to the surroundings in kW? b. What is the COP of the refrigerator?

Answer:

80 kW; 11 kW; 8 kW; 0.6

Explanation:

Part 1

Isentropic turbine efficiency:  

[tex]\eta_t = \frac{\text{Real turbine work}}{\text{isentropic turbine work}} = \frac{W_{real}}{W_s} [/tex]

[tex]W_{real} = \eta_t*W_s [/tex]

[tex]W_{real} = 0.8*100 kW [/tex]

[tex]W_{real} = 80 kW [/tex]

Part 2

Coefficient of performance COP is defined by:

[tex]COP = \frac{Q_{out}}{W} [/tex]

[tex]Q_{out} = W*COP[/tex]

[tex]Q_{out} = 5 kW*2.2[/tex]

[tex]Q_{out} = 11 kW[/tex]

Part 3

(a)

Energy balance for a refrigeration cycle gives:

[tex]Q_{in} + W = Q_{out} [/tex]

[tex]3 kW + 5 kW = Q_{out} [/tex]

[tex]8 kW = Q_{out} [/tex]

(b)

[tex]COP = \frac{Q_{in}}{W} [/tex]

[tex]COP = \frac{3 kW}{5 kW} [/tex]

[tex]COP = 0.6 [/tex]
