Question: Plot the coefficient of performance versus the temperature of a high - temperature reservoir for a Carnot refrigerator whose low - temperature reservoir is at

Plot the coefficient of performance versus the temperature of a high-temperature reservoir for a
Carnot refrigerator whose low-temperature reservoir is at 5C and whose high-temperature
reservoir varies between 7C and 50C.
CO2 in a piston-cylinder assembly goes from P1=150kPa,T1=300K to P2=500kPa,T2=370K. The
compression requires 300 kJ of work (into the system). Assuming it is an ideal gas with constant
specific heats, find the heat transfer in kJkg and the change in specific entropy.
2 kg of saturated water at 100C initially has a quality of 0.75. Heat is removed from the water at
constant pressure until the quality is at a lower value, x2. Plot the amount of heat transfer that
occurs and the change in entropy of the water versus the quality, x2. Vary x2 from 0 to 0.5.
Plot the coefficient of performance versus the
