Statement (I) Statement (Il) : $22-0, the cycle is T reversible, $5250, the cycle is T irreversible and possible The three phase (triple state/point) of a single component system possesses a single set of properties, For a single component system, the Gibbs phase rule, F=C+2—P (where F is number of independent intensive properties, Cis number of components in the system and P is number of phases), reduces to F=3-P, : The Clapeyron equation enables us to determine the enthalpy change associated with phase change. Using usual notations, the Clapeyron equation is given by (2) Te AP Joa Tgy 106. Statement (1) Statemen: (Il) : 107. Statement (1) Statement (ID) : 108. Statement (1) Statement ‘TI) 109, Statement (1) Statement (11) : 2 Amixture of liquid ai- and air cannot be considered as pure substance Proportions of oxygen and nitrogen differ in liquid and gaseous states in equilibrium. : A good Cl engine fuel, like diesel oil, is a bad SI ‘engine fuel and a good SI engine fuel, like petrol, is abad CI engine fuel. A good Cl engine fuel requires high self-ignition ‘temperature and a good SI engine fuel requires low self-ignition temperature. : The specific fuel consumption of a Cl engine is lower than that ofan SI engine, For the same power, a CI engine is bigger in s:ze than an SI engine. The cut off ratio of a Diesel engine cycle should be greater than one, but should be as low as possible Lower cut off ratio does improve the thermal efficiency but lowers the specific work output. Hence, the value of cuteff size. (Conte)110. Statement (I) : Statement (I) : HIF. Statement (I): Statement (Il) In Cl engine, increase of load decreases the knocking tendency. Increase of load increases the temperature of mixture and thereby increase in delay angle. Liquid-cooled engines are able to vary the size of their passage ways through the engine block, so that coolant flow may be tailored to the needs of each area. Locations with either high peak temperatures (narrow islands around the combustion chamber) or high heat flow (around exhaust ports) may require generous cooling. This reduces the occurrence of hot spots. Air-cooled engines may also vary their cooling capacity by using more closely spaced cooling fins in that area, but thi can make their manufacture difficult and expensive, 112. Statement (I). : Statement (I) : 113. Statement (1) Statement (Il) : 114. Statement(1) Statement (II) : A counter flow heat exeaanger is more effective than a parallel flow heat exchanger. Fo- same temperature limits of hot and cold fluids, the overall heat transfer coefficient o conater flow heat exchanger is more than paralle! flow heat exchanger. : The COP of an ai- conditioning plant is higher than the COP of a houscicld refrigerator. For the same condense= temperature, the suction corditioning plant than in househcld refrigerator. The main difference between vapour com- pression refrigeration cycle and Bell-Coleman ‘gas refr-geration cycle is that in gas cycle, an expandcr is used in place of a tarcttle valve, In chrotling of a perfect ‘gas, tem perature remains constant,115.

Statement (1) Statement (Hl) : : Humidity ratio of moist airs the ratio of the mass of water vapour to the mass of moist air in a given value of air-water vapour mixture, For any given barometric pressure, humidity ratio is a function of the dew point temperature alone, With heat exchanger gas turbine cycle, the cycle efficiency reduces as the pressure ratio increases. As the pressure ratio increases, the delivery temperature from the compressor increases and ultimately will exceed that of the exhaust gas from the turbine. : The estimation of exact cooling load calculations of space to be conditioned is important to know because it involves both the initial cost and operating cost. The outside heat gain to conditioned space is called external load and the heat gain from inside the conditioned space is called internal load. 118. S‘atement (1) Statement (II) : 119.
