Suggested problems - set # 9

1) In a cold air-standard Brayton cyle, air from the atmospheric pressure at 1 bar, 300 K is compressed to
6 bar. If the maximum cycle temperature is 1050 K and the heat supply is 95 MW, calculate
a. The thermal efficiency of the cycle
b. The back work ratio
c. The net power output

2) The rate of heat addition to an air-standard Brayton cycle is 800 kW. The pressure ratio is 12 and the
minimum and maximum temperatures are 298 K and 1600 K, respectively. Determine
a. The thermal efficiency of the cycle
b. The mass flow rate of air
c. The net power developed by the cycle

3) An air-standard Brayton cycle has a compressor pressure ratio of 10.


Air enters the compressor at 100 kPa and 20°C with a mass flow rate
of 11 kg/s. The turbine inlet temperature is 1222 K. Calculate the
thermal efficiency and the net power developed if
a. The turbine and compressor isentropic efficiencies are each
100%
b. The turbine and compressor isentropic efficiencies are 88%
and 84%, respectively
c. The turbine and compressor isentropic efficiencies are 88%
and 84%, respectively, and a regenerator with an
effectiveness of 80% incorporated. Where the regenerator
effectiveness is defined as

4) Refrigerant 134a is the working fluid in and ideal vapor compression cycle operating at steady state.
Compressor entrance is at 1 bar and -15°C, and the condenser pressure is 8 bar. Liquid exits the
condenser at 30°C. The mass flow rate of the refrigerant is 8 kg/min. Determine
a. The compressor power in kW
b. The refrigeration capacity in tons (one ton of refrigeration is equal to about 211 kJ/min)
c. The coefficient of performance

5) In a vapor compression refrigeration cycle, Refrigerant 22 is used as the working fluid. The cycle
operates at steady state. Saturated vapor enters the compressor at 1 bar and saturated liquid exits the
condenser at 5 bar. The isentropic compressor efficiency is 75% and the mass flow rate of the refrigerant
is 0.2 kg/s. Calculate the refrigeration capacity and the coefficient of performance.

6) A vapor-compression refrigeration system uses the arrangement shown in the figure next page for two-
stage compression with intercooling between the stages. Refrigerant 134a is the working fluid.
Saturated vapor at -32°C enters the first compressor stage. The flash chamber and direct contact heat
exchanger operate at 5 bar, and the condenser pressure is 14 bar. Saturated liquid streams at 14 and 5
bar enter the high- and low-pressure expansion valves, respectively. If each compressor operates
isentropically and the refrigerating capacity of the system is 12 tons, determine
a. the power input to each compressor, in kW.
b. the coefficient of performance.
7) In a vapor compression heat pump, Refrigerant 22 is compressed adiabatically from
0.15 MPa, -20°C to 1 MPa, 80°C. Refrigerant enters the expansion valve at 1 MPa, 32°C in liquid state.
At the exit of expansion valve pressure becomes 0.15 MPa.
Determine
a. The isentropic compressor efficiency
b. The coefficient of performance.
