thermodynamics 2) Superheated water vapor flows into a diffuser operating at steady state conditions. At the inlet the steam temperature is 300F, its pressure is 14.7 psi and its velocity is 500 ft/sec. The steam exits the diffuser at 60 psi, saturated vapor with negligible velocity. There is no significant change in potential energy. Determine the Heat Transfer from the surroundings to the Diffuser, Btu/lbm Include in your answer: a) Schematic b) Given-data table c) Engineering Model d) T-v Diagram...

Problem 5- A piston-cylinder device initially contains steam at 3.5 MPa, superheated by .10°C. Now, steam loses heat to the surroundings and the piston moves down, hitting a set of stops, at which point the cylinder contains saturated liquid water. The cooling continues until the cylinder contains water at .200C. Determine the initial temperature of the steam a. b. Sketch the process on a P-v an T-v diagram Determine the initial specific enthalpy, in kJ/kg d. Determine the enthalpy change...
1 kg of superheated water vapor cools in a 0.10 m3 container until the temperature reaches 180 ˚C. Determine the specific volume of the water at its final state and the entropy of the final state.
An isentropic turbine takes in superheated water vapor at 1 MPa and 270°C. A mixture is ejected from the turbine at 90 kPa. What are the quality and temperature of the mixture?
Homework 2 Problem 1: A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.35-kg steam at 3.5 MPa, superheated by 7.4 C. Now the stream loses heat to the surroundings and the piston moves down, hitting a set of stops at which point the cylinder contains saturated liquid water. The cooling continues until the cylinder contains water at 200C. Determine (a) the final pressure and the quality (if mixture), (b) the boundary work, (c) the amount of heat transfer when the piston first hits...
Water is the working fluid in an ideal Rankine cycle with reheat. Superheated vapor enters the turbine at 12 MPa, 480 °C and the pressure at the exit of the second stage turbine is 8 kPa. Steam expands through the first stage turbine to 1 MPa and then is reheated to 440 °C. Saturated liquid water leaves the condenser. After the pump, pressure goes back to 12 MPa. Find: (1) Sketch the process on a T-s diagram and justify the location...
A power plant taps steam superheated by geothermal energy to 421 K (the temperature of the hot reservoir) and uses the steam to do work in turning the turbine of an electric generator. The steam is then converted back into water in a condenser at 321 K (the temperature of the cold reservoir), after which the water is pumped back down into the earth where it is heated again. The output power (work per unit time) of the plant is...
Thermo Final Exam open book open notes 2hrs 1. (10pts) A power plant can be described by an ideal Rankine cycle without any irreversibility's. he boiler produces superheated steam at a pressure of 200 bars and temperature of 600c (1). The steam expands adiabatically (and isentropicly) thru a turbine exiting as a saturated vapor/liquid mixture at pressure of 0.1bar (2). The mixture passes thru a condenser (P-0.1bar) until it is all saturated liquid (3). It is then pumped adiabatically to...
