Applying the Exergy Balance: Closed Systems

Air enters a turbine operating at steady state with a pressure of 75 lbf/in.2, a temperature of 800oR, and a velocity of 400 ft/s. At the turbine exit, the conditions are 15 lbf/in.2, 6008R, and 100 ft/s. Heat transfer from the turbine to its

surroundings takes place at an average surface temperature of 620oR. The rate of heat transfer is 2 Btu per lb of air passing through the turbine. For the turbine, determine the work developed and the exergy destruction, each in Btu per lb of air flowing. Let T0 = 40oF, p0 = 15 lbf/in.2
