An Ideal gas is being heated in a circular duct as while flowing over an electric heater of 130 kW. The diameter of duct is 500

mm. The gas enters the heating section of the duct at 100 kPa and 27 deg C with a volume flow rate of 15 m3/s. If heat is lost from the gas in the duct to the surroundings at a rate of 80 kW, Calculate the exit temperature of the gas in deg C. (Assume constant pressure, ideal gas, negligible change in kinetic and potential energies and constant specific heat; Cp =1000 J/kg K; R = 500 J/kg K)

Answer: The exit temperature of the gas in deg C is 32^{o}C.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

C_{p} = 1000 J/kg K,   R = 500 J/kg K = 0.5 kJ/kg K (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

P_{1} = 100 kPa,     V_{1} = 15 m^{3}/s

T_{1} = 27^{o}C = (27 + 273) K = 300 K

We know that for an ideal gas the mass flow rate will be calculated as follows.

     P_{1}V_{1} = mRT_{1}

or,         m = \frac{P_{1}V_{1}}{RT_{1}}

                = \frac{100 \times 15}{0.5 \times 300}  

                = 10 kg/s

Now, according to the steady flow energy equation:

mh_{1} + Q = mh_{2} + W

h_{1} + \frac{Q}{m} = h_{2} + \frac{W}{m}

C_{p}T_{1} - \frac{80}{10} = C_{p}T_{2} - \frac{130}{10}

(T_{2} - T_{1})C_{p} = \frac{130 - 80}{10}

(T_{2} - T_{1}) = 5 K

T_{2} = 5 K + 300 K

T_{2} = 305 K

           = (305 K - 273 K)

           = 32^{o}C

Therefore, we can conclude that the exit temperature of the gas in deg C is 32^{o}C.

maria [59]

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing part

a) p1 = 454.83 kPa,  p2 = 283.359 Kpa , p3 = 536.423 kpa , p4 = 860.959kPa

b) W12 = 3.4 kJ, W23 = -3.5875 KJ, W34 = -4.0735 KJ, W41 = 3.5875 KJ

c) 5

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of air ( m ) = 1/10 kg

adiabatic index ( k ) = 1.4

temperature for isothermal expansion = 250K

rate of heat transfer ( Q12 ) = 3.4 KJ

temperature for Isothermal compression ( T4 ) = 300k

final volume ( V4 ) = 0.01m ^3

a)  Calculate the pressure, in Kpa, at each of the four principal states

from an ideal gas equation

P4V4 = mRT4 ( input values above )

hence P4 = 860.959kPa

attached below is the detailed solution

b) Calculate work done for each processes

The velocity components u and v in a two-dimensional flow field are given by: u = 4yt ft./s, v = 4xt ft./s, where t is time. Wha
zmey [24]

Answer:

vec(a) = 16 i + 16 j

mag(a) = 22.63 ft/s^2

Explanation:

Given,

- The two components of velocity are given for fluid flow:

                                       u = 4*y ft/s

                                       v = 4*x ft/s

Find:

What is the time rate of change of the velocity vector V (i.e., the acceleration vector) for a fluid particle at x = 1 ft. and y = 1 ft. at time t = 1 second?

Solution:

- The rate of change of velocity is given to be acceleration. We will take derivative of each components of velocity with respect to time t:

                                      a_x = du / dt

                                      a_x = 4*dy/dt

                                      a_y = dv/dt

                                      a_y = 4*dx/dt

- The expressions dx/dt is the velocity component u and dy/dt is the velocity component v:

                                     a_x = 4*(4*y) = 16y

                                     a_y = 4*(4*x) = 16x

- The acceleration vector can be expressed by:

                                     vec(a) = 16y i + 16x j

- Evaluate vector (a) at x = 1 and y = 1:

                                     vec(a) = 16*1 i + 16*1 j = 16 i + 16 j

- The magnitude of acceleration is given by:

                                     mag(a) = sqrt ( a^2_x + a^2_y )

                                     mag(a) = sqrt ( 16^2 + 16^2 )

                                     mag(a) = 22.63 ft/s^2

A steam turbine has isentropic efficiency of 0.8. Isentropically, it is supposed to deliver work of 100 kW. What is the actual w
trapecia [35]

Answer:

80 kW; 11 kW; 8 kW; 0.6

Explanation:

Part 1

Isentropic turbine efficiency:  

\eta_t = \frac{\text{Real turbine work}}{\text{isentropic turbine work}} = \frac{W_{real}}{W_s}

W_{real} = \eta_t*W_s

W_{real} = 0.8*100 kW

W_{real} = 80 kW

Part 2

Coefficient of performance COP is defined by:

COP = \frac{Q_{out}}{W}

Q_{out} = W*COP

Q_{out} = 5 kW*2.2

Q_{out} = 11 kW

Part 3

(a)

Energy balance for a refrigeration cycle gives:

Q_{in} + W = Q_{out}

3 kW + 5 kW = Q_{out}

8 kW = Q_{out}

(b)

COP = \frac{Q_{in}}{W}

COP = \frac{3 kW}{5 kW}

COP = 0.6
