One kilogram of air, initially at 5 bar, 350 K, and 3 kg of carbon dioxide (CO2), initially at 2 bar, 450 K, are confined to opp
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Energy alance of 2 closed systems: Heat from CO2 equals the heat that is added to air in

m_{a} c_{v,a}(T_{eq} -T_{a,i)} =m_{co2} c_{v,co2} (T_{co2,i} -T_{eq)}

1x0.723x(T_{eq} -350)=3x0.780x(450-T_{eq} ) ⇒T_{eq} = 426.4 °K

The initail volumes of the gases can be determined by the ideal gas equation of state,

V_{a,i}  = \frac{mRT_{a,i} }{P_{a,i} }=  \frac{1x (8.314 28.97 kJ kg • °K)x 350°K}{5 bar x 100KPa bar} = 0.201m^{3}

The equilibrium pressure of the gases can also be obtained by the ideal gas equation

P_{eq=\frac{(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq})+(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq} ) }{(V_{a,eq}+V_{CO2,eq)} } =\frac{(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq})+(m_{a}R_{a}T_{eq} ) }{(V_{a,i}+V_{CO2,i)} }

P_{eq}= 1x(8.314 28.97)x426.4+3x(8.314 44)x426.4

                             (0.201+1.275)

= 246.67 KPa = 2.47 bar

Water vapor at 10bar, 360°C enters a turbine operatingat steady state with a volumetric flow rate of 0.8m3/s and expandsadiabati
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

A) W' = 178.568 KW

B) ΔS = 2.6367 KW/k

C) η = 0.3

Explanation:

We are given;

Temperature at state 1;T1 = 360 °C

Temperature at state 2;T2 = 160 °C

Pressure at state 1;P1 = 10 bar

Pressure at State 2;P2 = 1 bar

Volumetric flow rate;V' = 0.8 m³/s

A) From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific volume;v1 = 0.287322 m³/kg

Mass flow rate of water vapour at turbine is defined by the formula;

m' = V'/v1

So; m' = 0.8/0.287322

m' = 2.784 kg/s

Now, From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 1 with temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific enthalpy;h1 = 3179.46 KJ/kg

Now, From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with temperature of 160°C and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

Specific enthalpy;h2 = 3115.32 KJ/kg

Now, since stray heat transfer is neglected at turbine, we have;

-W' = m'[(h2 - h1) + ((V2)² - (V1)²)/2 + g(z2 - z1)]

Potential and kinetic energy can be neglected and so we have;

-W' = m'(h2 - h1)

Plugging in relevant values, the work of the turbine is;

W' = -2.784(3115.32 - 3179.46)

W' = 178.568 KW

B) Still From table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 1 with temperature of 360°C and Pressure of 10 bar, we have;

Specific entropy: s1 = 7.3357 KJ/Kg.k

Still from table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with temperature of 160°C and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

Specific entropy; s2 = 8.2828 KJ/kg.k

The amount of entropy produced is defined by;

ΔS = m'(s2 - s1)

ΔS = 2.784(8.2828 - 7.3357)

ΔS = 2.6367 KW/k

C) Still from table A-6 attached and by interpolation at state 2 with s2 = s2s = 8.2828 KJ/kg.k and Pressure of 1 bar, we have;

h2s = 2966.14 KJ/Kg

Energy equation for turbine at ideal process is defined as;

Q' - W' = m'[(h2 - h1) + ((V2)² - (V1)²)/2 + g(z2 - z1)]

Again, Potential and kinetic energy can be neglected and so we have;

-W' = m'(h2s - h1)

W' = -2.784(2966.14 - 3179.46)

W' = 593.88 KW

the isentropic turbine efficiency is defined as;

η = W_actual/W_ideal

η = 178.568/593.88 = 0.3
