Reversed Carnot Cycle download the script: The Reversed Carnot Cycle (hittps://thermodynamicsengineering files.wordpress.com/2013/03/the-reversed-carnot-cycle.pdf) Unlike the Carnot heat engine, the Carnot refrigeration cycle undergoes a process with opposite direction. We see from the model, heat Qy, is absorbed from the low-temperature reservoir (TL=constant) and heat Qyy is rejected to a high-temperature reservoir (T}=constant). In this case a work input in the amount of Wrey is required to achieve this process. And we know from the 1°t law of thermodynamics, the required work can be determined in Wrey=- Qq - Qy. Here QH<0 and Q1>0. htps:ithermodynamics-engineercom/429-2! 48 1971212021, 08:28 Reversed Camot Cycle | Thermodynamics for Engineer Qu Reversible Wrev refrigarator (reversed Carnot Cycle) Q The reversed Carnot cycle also consists of two isentropic and two isothermal processes.

The engine is perfect insulated so that no heat is lost and absorbed. Gas is compressed slowly until the temperature rises from T,, to Ty. Process 2-1: Reversible Isothermal Compression (Tyj=constant) During this process, heat is rejected. Gas is compressed reversibly at the constant temperature Ty. Process 1-4: Reversible Adiabatic Expansion This process is isentropic. The engine is perfect insulated so that no heat is lost and absorbed. Gas expands slowly until the temperature drops from Ty to TL. Process 4-3: Reversible Isothermal Expansion (I =constant) During this process, heat is absorbed. Gas is compressed reversibly at the constant temperature TH The coefficient of performance (COP) of any refrigerator or heat pump, reversible or irreversible, can be calculated with the general expression: © Fora Camot refrigerator: © Fora Camot heat pump: From the T-s-diagram, we obtain: On Qab-QH = TH: AS21 Qeu-QL = TL: AS443 AS2_41=- AS443 Therefore © Fora Carnot refrigerator: hites:thermodynamies-engineer.com429-21 38 rina02t, 0828 Reversed Cam Oye [Thermodynamics or Engineer & Ses I 4. a Pe Ot CO COR, © For a Camot heat pump: Qn Tig AS Ts 2.

The coefficient of performance (COP) of a reversed Carnot cycle only depends on the highest and lowest temperature. 2. Normally TypTL, so that means COPR>1 and COP}yp>1 3. Both coefficients of performance (COP) have a relationship: COP}p = COPR +1 4, If TL, decreases, both COPR and COPp decrease. As mentioned above, the reversed Carnot cycle is a reversible process.
