Answer:
a) the work (W) done during the process is -2043.25 kJ
b) the work (W) done during the process is -2418.96 kJ
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
mass of water vapor m = 10 kg
initial pressure P₁ = 550 kPa
Initial temperature T₁ = 340 °C
steam cooled at constant pressure until 60 percent of it, by mass, condenses; x = 100% - 60% = 40% = 0.4
from superheated steam table
specific volume v₁ = 0.5092 m³/kg
so the properties of steam at p₂ = 550 kPa, and dryness fraction
x = 0.4
specific volume v₂ = v + xv
v₂ = 0.001097 + 0.4( 0.34261 - 0.001097 )
v₂ = 0.1377 m³/kg
Now, work done during the process;
W = mP₁( v₂ - v₁ )
W = 10 × 550( 0.1377 - 0.5092 )
W = 5500 × -0.3715
W = -2043.25 kJ
Therefore, the work (W) done during the process is -2043.25 kJ
( The negative, indicates work is done on the system )
b)
What would the work done be if steam were cooled at constant pressure until 80 percent of it, by mass, condenses
x₂ = 100% - 80% = 20% = 0.2
specific volume v₂ = v + x₂v
v₂ = 0.001097 + 0.2( 0.34261 - 0.001097 )
v₂ = 0.06939 m³/kg
Now, work done during the process will be;
W = mP₁( v₂ - v₁ )
W = 10 × 550( 0.06939 - 0.5092 )
W = 5500 × -0.43981
W = -2418.96 kJ
Therefore, the work (W) done during the process is -2418.96 kJ
