ENGINES, REFRIGERATORS, AND HEAT PUMPS
This lecture highlights aspects in Chapters 9,10,11 of Cengel and Boles. Every thermodynamic device has moving parts. To understand these movements, it is important that you watch some videos on the Internet. I will go through these slides in two 90-minutes lectures.

Thermodynamics = heat + motionToo many devices to classify neatly
• Fuel (input): biomass, fossil, solar thermal, geothermal, nuclear, electricity.
• Application (output): mobile power plant (transpiration in air, land, sea), stationary power plant (electricity generation), refrigerator, heat pump. Power cycle, refrigeration cycle.
• Working fluid: Gas cycle (air), vapor cycle (steam, phase change). • Fluid-solid coupling: piston engine (reciprocating, crankshaft),
turbine engine (jet, compressor). • Site of burning: external combustion, internal combustion.

1. Model the engine as a closed system, and the working fluid as air (an ideal gas).
2. The cycle is internally reversible.
3. Model combustion by adding heat from an external source
4. Model exhaust by rejecting heat to an external sink
Air-standard assumptions

Cold air-standard assumptionModel air as an ideal gas of constant specific heat at room temperature (25°C).

• On PV plane, the black area represents the Carnot cycle, and shaded areas represent addition work done by the Stirling cycle.
• On TS plane, the black area represents the Carnot cycle, and the shaded areas represent additional heat taken in by the Stirling cycle.
• The Stirling cycle and the Carnot cycle have the same thermal efficiency.• The Stirling cycle take in more heat and give more work than the Carnot cycle.

Why water? Why steam?• Water is cheap.• Water flows!• Water is a liquid at the temperature of heat sink (rivers, lakes,...). • Vaporization changes specific volume greatly: a lot of work at relatively low pressure.

Issues with the in-dome Carnot cycle
Process 1-2 limits the maximum temperature below the critical point (374°C for water)
Process 2-3. The turbine cannot handle steam with a high moisture content because of the impingement of liquid droplets on the turbine blades causing erosion and wear.
Process 4-1. It is not practical to design a compressor that handles two phases.
Issues with supercritical Carnot cycle
Process 1-2 requires isothermal heat transfer at variable pressures.
Process 4-1 requires isentropic compression to extremely high pressures.
Carnot cycle is unsuitable as vapor power cycle

• Entropy• Equilibrium• Irreversibility• Temperature, energy• Pressure, volume• Phases• Ideal gas• Osmosis• Turbines, compressors, throttling valves, heat exchangers, diffusers, nozzles• Engines, refrigerators, heat pumps
Summary• Engine converts fuel to motion.• Refrigerator and heat pump use work to pump heat from a place of low
temperature to a place of high temperature. • Many ideal cycles are internally reversible, but externally irreversible.• Stirling and Ericsson cycles are internally and externally reversible, so they
have the same thermal efficiency as the Carnot cycle.• Use ideal-gas model to analyze gas as working fluid.• Use property table to analyze vapor as working fluid.• Model piston engine as a closed system (Otto, Diesel, Stirling, Ericsson).• Model turbine (or compressor) device as steady-flow components in
series (Brayton cycle, Rankine cycle, refrigeration cycle).
