A commercial refrigerator with refrigerant -134a as the working fluid is used to keep the refrigerated space at -30C by rejecting its waste heat to cooling water that enters the condenser at 18C at a rate of 0.25 kg/s and leaves at 26C. The refrigerant enters the condenser at 1.2 MPa and 65C and leaves at 42C. The inlet state of the compressor is 60 kPa and -34C and the compressor is estimated to gain a net heat of 450 W from the surroundings. Determine

a. the quality of the refrigerant at the evaporator inlet,

b. the refrigeration load,

c. the COP of the refrigerator, and

d. the theoretical maximum refrigeration load for the same power input to the compressor.

Aloaded platform of total mass 500 kg is supported by a dashpot and by a set of springs of effective stiffness 72 kn/m. it is observed that when the platform is depressed through a distance x = 12.5 cm below its equilibrium position and then released without any initial velocity; it reaches its equilibrium position in the shortest possible time without overshoot. find the position and velocity of the loaded platform 0.10 sec. after its release. if a further load of 400 kg is added to the platform, find, i) the frequency of damped vibrations, and i) the amplitude of vibration after 2 complete oscillations, given that the initial amplitude is 15 cm.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
