Entropy and Cycles

We began class by touching up on some of the previous cycles we had learned and we were introduced to couple new ones. 


This engine dealt with using change in surface temperature in order for the propeller to begin moving. 


We then moved on to the coefficient of performance and how it is within different systems like refrigerators or even heat pumps.


We also dealt with efficiency of different systems depending on the heat output they had.


One of the last problems we did was the energy output of a refrigerator and how efficient it truly was. The total heat output we got was -1719654 J.
