Thermo one Question 5 A steam turbine generates energy in the form of work at the rate of 346.1 kJ/kg of steam. The steam at the inlet of the turbine is at 8 MPa, 480oC, and at a velocity of 163.5 m/s. The steam exits the turbine at 2 MPa, 240oC, and a velocity of 55.3 m/s. Heat transfer to the surroundings occurs where the outer surface (boundary) temperature is at 333.5oC. Determine the rate of entropy production (kJ/kg-K) within...

An industrial process discharges 5,700 m3/min of gaseous products at 200°C, 100 kPa. The figure below shows a proposed system for utilizing the combustion products and its steady state conditions. Heat transfer from the outer surface of the steam generator (heat exchanger) and turbine can be ignored, as can the changes in kinetic and potential energies of the streams. There is no pressure drop through the heat exchanger. The combustion product can be modeled as air as an ideal...
An adiabatic compressor pressurizes 11 kg/s of air from 60 kPa to 200 kPa. The specific volume and temperature of the air at the compressor inlet are 1.44 m3/kg and 27 C. At the outlet, the specific volume = 1 m3/kg. Cp for air = 1.005 lJ/kg/K. What is the power required to run the compressor?
Problem-2 (200) Air at 30 kPa, 200 K, and 250 m/s enters a turbojet engine in flight. The air mass flow rate is 28 kg/s. The compressor pressure ratio is 13, the turbine inlet temperature is 1460 K, and air exits the nozzle at 30 kPa.

NGINEERI 13. A centrifugal compressor (not a piston type) compresses the air from the ambient condition at T, 300K and Pi 1 bar to P 10 bar following three different, standalone paths: isentropic, reversible isothermal, and an irreversible adiabatic process, respectively. (Note: These processes are not sequential processes; rather each of them is an independent, standalone p They all start at the same initial condition at state 1, but they end at different state 2.) The mass flow rate is...
Air at 10 degree C and 80 kPa enters the diffuser of a jet engine steadily with a velocity of 200 m/s. The inlet area of the diffuser is 0.4 m^2.The air leaves the diffuser with a velocity that is very small compared with the inlet velocity. Determine the mass flow rate of the air and the temperature of the air leaving the diffuser. Air at 100 kPa and 280 K is compressed steadily to 600 kPa and 400 K....
