ME 322 APPLIED THERMODYNAMICS: ASSIGNMENT 03

The assignment is intended to enable a student gain practical insight of how thermodynamics
concepts are employed in different industries

QUESTION ONE

Choose any well-known corporation ‘z’ of the particular industry assigned to your group and consider
the role of an electrical engineering graduate working in ‘z’. (Table –A) Based on such supposition
answer the following questions:

1. What are the market-targets of the very corporation?

2. When was the last opening for the position of Electrical Engineer? Briefly, write down the
contents of very advertisement?

3. In 3-4 lines describe, how, in the particular industry, each of the following thermodynamic terms
are employed:
a. Turbine
b. Compressor
c. Nozzle
d. Heat Exchanger
e. Superheated Liquid
f. Heat Pump
g. Thermocouple
h. Concept of ‘entropy’ (Hint: Power generation)
i. Vapor and combine power cycles (Hint: Power generation)

4. Which one of the following engines are employed majorly in your chosen industry: Otto, Diesel,
Stirling, Ericsson and Brayton etc? What is their major function?

Note: Each answer must carry a proper reference and all the costs must be in Pakistani Rupees.

Any two or more assignments having same contents will be strictly marked with a score of ZERO
QUESTION TWO

1. Are there any energy-efficiency or eco-friendly plans underway in your company?

2. How efficiency can be improved by employing each of the following terms, generally speaking?
a. Combined Heat and Power (CHP)
b. Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC)

3. In 3-4 lines describe briefly, how temperature variations are related to the operation of different
electronic devices? (Answer with at least two main points)

4. What are the temperature limits for safe operation of electronic circuitry in your computer
processor (laptop or desktop) and that in your mobile phone? What are the potential consequences
if the ambient temperature crosses such limit either way? (Consult their websites to ensure exact
figures)

Note: Each answer must carry a proper reference and all the costs must be in Pakistani Rupees.

Any two or more assignments having same contents will be strictly marked with a score of ZERO
