Consider two walls, A and B, with the same surface areas and the same temperature drops across their thicknesses. The ratio of their thermal conductivities is kA/kB=4 and the ratio of the wall thickness is LA/LB=2. The ratio of heat transfer rates through the walls qA/qB is: (a) 0.5

(b) 1

(c) 2

(d) 4

(e) 8

(f) None of them

4r-134a enters the condenser of a residential heat pump at 800 kpa and 50°c at a rate of 0.022 kg/s and leaves at 750 kpa subcooled by 3°c. the refrigerant enters the compressor at 200 kpa superheated by 4°c determine (a) the isentropic efficiency of the compressor, (b) the rate of heat supplied to the heated room, and (c) the cop of the heat pump. also, determine (d) the cop and rate of heat supplied to the heated room if this heat pump operated on the ideal vapor-compression cycle between the pressure limits of 200 and 800 kpa.
