A vapour absorption refrigeration system is a heat pump with three thermal reservoirs as shown in the figure. A refrigeration effect of 100 W is required at 250 K when the heat source available is at 400 K. Heat rejection occurs at 300 K. The minimum value of heat required (in W) is

A thin layer of water in a field is formed after a farmer has watered it. The ambient air conditions are: temp. 20°C and relative humidity 5%. An extract of steam tables is given below.
Neglecting the heat transfer between the water and the ground, the water temperature in the field after phase equilibrium is reached equals
