Requirements:
Data of problems depend on the two last numbers of student code:

A = the last number
B = the second last number
If A is zero, take A = 10
If B is zero, take B = 10
Examples: Student code 159806523 => A = 3, B = 2

265546806 => A = 6; B = 10
156849650 => A = 10; B = 5

Steam cycle:
Problem 1:
Consider a steam power plant that operates on a simple ideal Rankine
cycle and has a power output of 100MW.
Steam enters the turbine at A0 bar and 500oC and is cooled in the
condenser at 10kPa by running cooling tower from a lake through the
tubes of condenser at a rate of 2000kg/s.
The coal-fired is used at boiler with a heating value of 29300kJ/kg and
80% of boiler efficiency.
Determine:
a/ the properties of states of the cycle
b/ the thermal efficiency of the cycle
c/ the mass flow rate of the steam
d/ the required rate of coal supply
e/ assume the pump work is negligible, determine the thermal
efficiency of the cycle

Refrigeration cycle:
Problem 2:
Refrigerator uses refrigerant R22 as the working fluid and operates on
an ideal vapor compression refrigeration cycle between 0,A MPa and
1,6MPa. The power input is 20kW.
Determine:
a/ The COP of the refrigeration cycle
b/ The cooling capacity of evaporator Qo, the heat rejects from
condenser to enviroment Qk
c/ Moisture air flow through evaporator at 35°C, and 80% and it
leaves as saturated air at 20°C. Calculate the amount of water
condensed per minute.

Moisture air:
Problem 3: Mixture of two difference air stream
- Air stream 1: G1 = 2000kg/h, t1 = ABoC; 1 = 70%
- Air stream 2: G2 = 3500kg/h, t2 = BAoC; 2 = 50%
- After mixed air stream at state 3.
- The mixture keep continuing moving to the heater to rise
temperature until the outlet at state 4 is 120oC.
Determine:
a/ Properties of moisture air at state 3 and state 4?
b/ Using the electric heater with power of each heater is 5kW for
heating process. How many electric heaters can be used in this
case?

6W/m2K. The surface area of the room 16m2 exposed to ambient air
temperature 38oC with 12W/m2K.
The cold room walls consist of 2 layers:
+ the first layer: 1 = 2mm, 1 = 55W/moC
+ the second layer: 2 = 110mm, 2 = 0,1W/moC
Determine the heat lost of the wall and interface temperatures

the inlet of pipe is ABoC and the outlet is 80oC. The surface
temperature of pipe is 120oC

30oC and have emissivity 1 = 0,A; 2 = 0,B.

a) Determine the net rate of radiation heat transfer between plates
b) One more shield is added between two plates to reduce the net rate
of radiation to ¼ compare with the case of (a). Determine the
emissivity of the shield is added.

counter flow heat exchanger at 25oC at a flow rate of 0,ABkg/s and
exits at 50oC.

and a flow rate of 2kg/s. if the overall heat transfer coefficient of the
heat exchanger is 1300W/m2K,

b/ If heat exchanger is switched to parallel flow with the no change
all the required parameters, calculate the length of the tube in this
case and compare with the result from (a)
