A water cooler of storage capacity 120 litres can cool water at constant rate of P watts. In a closed circulation system (as shown schematically in the figure), the water from the cooler is used to cool an external device that generates constantly 3 kW of heat (thermal load). The temperature of water fed into the device cannot exceed 30oC{30}^{o}C and the entire stored 120 litres of water is initially cooled to 10oC{10}^{o}C . The entire system is thermally insulated. The minimum value of P (in watts) for which the device can be operated for 3 hours is:
A water cooler of storage capacity 120 litres can cool water at constant rate of P watts. In a closed circulation
(Specific heat of water is 4.2 kJ kg−1K−1k{g}^{- 1}{K}^{- 1} and the density of water is 1000 kg m−3{m}^{- 3} )

Options

  1. A1600
  2. B2067
  3. C2533
  4. D3933

Correct answer

B. 2067

Step-by-step solution

3000−P=3000 - P =\left(120 \times 1\right)\left(4.2 \times {10}^{3}\right)\dfrac{dT}{dt}<br><br >\dfrac{dT}{dt} = \dfrac{20}{60 \times 60 \times 3}<br><br >P = 2067W
