Gentle Reminder If you want to make up labs or standards from Term 1, contact me today. If you do not contact me by today, your scores for the standards and labs from Term 1 will stay as they are now.
2
General Physics L04_engines.ppt forward and backward
Heat Engines forward and backward § 15.8–15.10
3
Heat Engines Divert heat flow
4
Heat Engine Qh = W + Qc Qc/Tc ≥ Qh/Th
Heat flow can be diverted to useful work As long as entropy still increases
5
Heat Engine Th Qh Qc W Tc e = W /Qh Efficiency One type of performance
6
Limits to Efficiency e = W /Qh = (Qh–Qc)/Qh = 1 – Qc/Qh now Qc/Tc ≥ Qh/Th, so Qc/Qh ≥ Tc/Th thus e ≤ 1 – Tc/Th
7
Refrigerators and Heat Pumps
push heat upstream
8
Heat Pump or Refrigerator
Th Qh = W + Qc Qh/Th ≥ Qc/Tc Qh W Qc Tc Heat flows uphill! Still, entropy must increase
9
Performance of a Heat Pump
Th Qh W Qc Tc We want Qh COP = Qh/W
10
Performance of a Refrigerator
Th Qh W Qc Tc We want Qc COP = Qc/W
