Problem 3 Steam enters a heat exchanger at 0.1 bar with a quality of 0.95 and condensate exits at 0.1 bar and 45'C. Cooling water enters the heat exchanger in a separate stream as a liquid at 20'C and exits as a liquid at 35 C with no changes in pressure. Heat transfer from the outside of the heat exchanger and changes in the kinetic and potential energies of the flowing streams can be ignored. For steady state operation, (a)...
Problem 3 (50%) The process below is part of a larger steam power plant. Steam in stream 1 enters the turbine at 600 °C, 50 bar with mass flow rate kg/s and exits at 7 bar, 350 °C. Stream 3, which is saturated liquid and is throttled to 2 bar (stream 4). Stream 5 is at 200°C, 2 bar, and is mixed adiabatically with stream 4 in the tank. Stream 6 is wet steam that contains 8% liquid. This stream...
A stream containing ethane gas (C2He) enters the inner pipe of a double-pipe heat exchanger at 40°C and 105 kPa and exits from the pipe at 240*C and the same pressure. Superheated steam at 315 C and 5.0 bars enters the outer (annular) pipe, flowing counter-currently to the ethane, and exits as a saturated vapor at the same pressure. Neglecting the heat losses from the heat exchanger to its surroundings. Draw a diagram of the process. (5) What are the...
Problem 7.32 Heating Ethane with Steam Saturated steam at a gauge pressure of 3.00 bar is to be used to heat a stream of ethane.

Figure provides steady-state data for a throttling valve in series with a heat exchanger. Saturated liquid Refrigerant 134a enters the valve at T1 = 36 degrees Celsius with a mass flow rate of 0.26 kg/s and is throttled to T2 = -8 degrees Celsius. The refrigerant then enters the heat exchanger, exiting as saturated vapor with no significant decrease in pressure. In a separate stream, liquid water enters the heat exchanger at T4 = 20 degrees Celsius and exits as...
Steam enters a counterflow heat exchanger operating at steady state at 0.07 MPa with a quality of 0.9 and exits at the same pressure as saturated liquid. The steam mass flow rate is 1.3 kg/min. A separate stream of air with a mass flow rate of 100 kg/min enters at 30oC and exits at 60oC. The ideal gas model with cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K can be assumed for air. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the temperature of...
