5.14 A power cycle receives QH by heat transfer from a hot reservoir at TH = 1200 K and rejects energy QC by heat transfer to a cold reservoir at TC = 400 K. For each of the following cases, determine whether the cycle operates reversibly, operates irreversibly, or is impossible. (a) QH = 900 kJ, Wcycle = 450 kJ (b) QH = 900 kJ, QC = 300 kJ (c) Wcycle = 600 kJ, QC = 400 kJ (d) η = 75%

Acarnot refrigerator operates in a room in which the temperature is 21°c and of power when operating. if the food compartment of the refrigerator is consumes 3 kw to be maintained at 2°c, determine (a) the coefficient of performance of the cycle and (b) the rate of heat removal from the food compartment. refrigerator cycle that has a higher coefficient of performance than that of the discussed (e) is it possible to develop a carn ot refrigerator, operating between the same temperature limits? explain
