A paper drying process requires 8 t/h of steam to be supplied with a heat pump system comprising: a) a heat pump cycle, working with R245fa fluid, supplying heat to a steam drum where water is evaporated at 100 °C; b) a steam compressor, rising the steam pressure up to the target pressure of 5 bar. Steam drum The following information and data are given: R245fa is evaporated exploiting waste heat from a cooling water circuit, where water is cooled down from 50 to 30°C. Both compressors are open compressors, with an isentropic efficiency of 80% and a mechanical electric efficiency of 96%. Liquid water is fed to the steam drum at 80°C. Due to the intense mixing within the steam drum, liquid water in the drum can be considered at the saturation temperature of 100°C. 1) Assume reasonable values for the R245fa cycle, namely: (i) evaporation temperature, (ii) superheating temperature at evaporator outlet; (iii) condensing temperature; (iv) subcooling temperature at condenser outlet. (4 points) 2) Draw the R245fa cycle on the given p-h diagram. (2 points) 3) Calculate the COP of the R245fa cycle. (4 points) 4) Calculate the total electric power consumed by the heat pump plant. (5 points) 5) Calculate the COP of the heat pump plant. (3 points)

1. Lex Luthor has attached an atom bomb inside a grandfather clock, set to explode when the clock reads a certain time, just a minute or two from now. It will also explode if anyone opens it up to tamper with the mechanisms inside or stops it from ticking, so Superman knows his best hope is to carry the clock straight up in the sky as far away from the city as possible before the explosion. He worries, though: will lifting the clock at a constant acceleration change the rate at which it ticks? He'll need to plan for that. Assume that the clock accelerates upward with constant acceleration $a$, so that its height above the ground is given by $z_c(t) = \frac{1}{2}at^2$ (measured to the pendulum pivot point), and assume that the gravitational acceleration $g$ is approximately constant. Treat its pendulum as a simple point mass $m$ at the end of a rod of length $\ell$ whose angle from straight down is $\theta(t)$. (a) Write the position vector $\vec{r}(t)$ of the pendulum mass in terms of the angle $\theta$ and the given expression for the clock's height $z_c(t)$. (b) Write the Lagrangian for the pendulum mass, using $\theta$ as the generalized coordinate. (c) Find the Euler-Lagrange equation of motion and solve it for $\theta$. (d) As long as $\theta$ is small, we know $\cos(\theta) \approx 1$ and $\sin(\theta) \approx \theta$ (in radians). Making these substitutions as necessary, what is the angular frequency $\omega$ of small oscillations? Is it faster or slower than if $a = 0$?
