A power company desires to use groundwater from a hot spring to power a heat engine. If the groundwater is at 95 deg C and the a

tmosphere is at 20 deg C, what is the maximum power output for a mass flow of 0.2 kg/s? Assume the water is cooled to atmospheric temperature.

Answer:

W  = 12.8 KW

Explanation:

given data:

mass flow rate = 0.2 kg/s

Engine recieve heat from ground water at 95 degree ( 368 K)  and reject that heat to atmosphere  at 20 degree (293K)

we know that maximum possible efficiency is given as

\eta = 1- \frac{T_L}{T_H}

\eta = 1 - \frac{ 293}{368}

\eta = 0.2038

rate of heat transfer is given as

Q_H = \dot m C_p \Delta T

Q_H = 0.2 * 4.18 8(95 - 20)

Q_H = 62.7 kW

Maximuim power is given as

W = \eta Q_H

W = 0.2038 * 62.7

W  = 12.8 KW

Saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water, called wet steam, in a steam line at 1500 kPa is throttled to 50 kPa and 100°C. What is
frozen [14]

Answer:

x = 0.944

Explanation:

Steam at outlet is an superheated steam, since T > T_{sat}. From steam tables, the specific enthalpy is:

h_{out}=2682.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

The throttle valve is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics:

h_{in} = h_{out}

Hence, specific enthalpy at inlet is:

h_{in}=2682.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg}

The quality in the steam line is:

x = \frac{2682.4\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-844.55\,\frac{kJ}{kg}}{2791.0\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 844.55\,\frac{kJ}{kg} }

x = 0.944

The Reynolds number is a dimensionless group defined for a fluid flowing in a pipe as Re Durho/μ whereD is pipe diameter, u is f
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

the flow is turbulent

Explanation:

The Reynolds number is given by

Re=ρVD/μ

where

V=fluid speed=0.48ft/s=0.146m/s

D=diameter=2.067in=0.0525m

ρ=density=0.805g/cm^3=805Kg/m^3

μ=0.43Cp=4.3x10^-4Pas

Re=(805)(0.146)(0.0525)/4.3x10^-4=14349.59

Re>2100  the flow is turbulent

Note: if you do not want to use a calculator you can use the graphs to calculate the Reynolds number according to their properties
