A piston-cylinder contains 6.9 lbm of water initially at 300 psia and 500°F. The volume then doubles in a polytropic process to a final pressure of 200 psia. How much heat was added, in units of Btu. Use a negative sign if heat actually removed instead of added. Selected Answer: 753.48 Correct Answer: 1,293.8 - 1096

Air initially at 120 psia and 500*F is expanded by an adiabatic turbine to 15 psia and 200* F. Assuming air can be treated as an ideal gas and has variable specific heat. a) Determine the specific work output of the actual turbine (Btu/lbm). b) Determine the amount of specific entropy generation during the irreversible process (Btu/lbm R). c) Determine the isentropic efficiency of this turbine (%). d) Suppose the turbine now operates as an ideal compressor (reversible and adiabatic)...

Air stored underground at 500 psia and 200 deg.F is first heated by natural gas combustion...
Air stored underground at 500 psia and 200 deg.F is first heated by natural gas combustion to 2,340 deg.F at constant pressure, then expanded in an 89% efficient turbine to atmospheric (14.7 psia) pressure. Part of the work of the turbine is used to compress ambient air at 70 deg.F and 14.7 psia to store it underground with an 85% efficient compressor. The air that is stored underground loses heat to the surroundings. The turbine powers an electric generator that...

1. An industrial plant needs 20,000 lbm of saturated steam at 280°F per hour for heating purposes and ten MW of electrical power. A small turbine system is to be designed to handle both of these needs. Steam is supplied to a turbine at 400 psia pressure from a boiler and expanded until 280°F saturated steam is obtained whereupon the steam needed for heating is extracted. The rest of the steam is expanded in a second turbine to a condenser...

An insulated 1.7 m3 rigid tank contains air at 500 kPa and 50oC. A valve connected to the tank is now opened and air is allowed to escape until the pressure inside drops to 200 kPa. The air temperature during this process is maintained constant by an electric resistance heater placed in the tank. a. Determine the mass of air initially, m1 in kg. b. How much air escaped from the tank, mout in kg. c. Determine the electrical work...
