True or false: while riding a bicycle up a gentle hill, it fairly easy to increase your potential energy, but to increase your kinetic energy would ...
Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
Steam Mass rate, ms = 1.5 kg/min
= 1.5 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec
= 0.025 kg/s
Air Mass rate, ma = 100 kg/min
= 100 kg/min × 1 min/60 sec
= 1.67 kg/s
A.
Extracting the specific enthalpy and temperature values from property table of “Saturated water – Pressure table” which corresponds to temperature at 0.07 MPa.
xf, quality = 0.9.
Tsat = 89.9°C
hf = 376.57 kJ/kg
hfg = 2283.38 kJ/kg
Using the equation for specific enthalpy,
hi = hf + (hfg × xf)
= 376.57 + (2283.38 × 0.9)
= 2431.552 kJ/kg
The specific enthalpy of the outlet, h2 = hf
= 376.57 kJ/kg
B.
Rate of enthalpy (heat exchange), Q = mass rate, ms × change in specific enthalpy
= ms × (hi - h2)
= 0.025 × (2431.552 - 376.57)
= 0.025 × 2055.042
= 51.37455 kW
= 51.38 kW.
