Example Problem # 17 Conservation Of Energy Steam at 1600-psi, 1000°F, and a velocity of 2-ft/s...
1 Steam enters a well-insulated nozzle at 300 lbf/in.2, 600°F, with a velocity of 100 ft/s and exits at 60 Ibf/in.2 with a velocity of 1800 ft/s. For steady-state operation, and neglecting potential energy effects, determine the exit temperature, in °F OF
The following diagram illustrates a simple steam power plant. A 10kg/s flow of liquid water at T1=25°C enters the pump at a pressure of P1=100kPa and is then pumped to a pressure of P2=2MPa. The boiler then heats the water at constant pressure to produce superheated vapour at T3=450°C. The steam is then expanded in the turbine to a final pressure of P4=100kPa. The turbine and pump are well insulated and may be considered reversible. a) Find the turbine exit...
