Steam enters a counterflow heat exchanger operating at steady state at 0.07 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 2431.6 kJ/kg and exi

ts at the same pressure as saturated liquid. The steam mass flow rate is 1.5 kg/min. A separate stream of air with a mass flow rate of 100 kg/min enters at 30 degree C and exits at 60 degree C. The ideal gas model with c rho = 1.005 kJ/kg K can be assumed for air. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine (a) the quality of the entering steam and (b) the rate of heat transfer between the heat exchanger and its surroundings, in kW.

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.

You make tea with 0.50 kg of 85.0°C water and let it cool to room temperature 120.0°C2.
dedylja [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Entropy change dS = dQ/T

= mcdT /T

Integrating both sides

S₂ - S₁ = - mclnT₂ /T₁

= - .5 X 4200 ln (85+273) /( 20 + 273 )

.5 X 4200 ln 358/ 293

= - 417.6 J/K

Entropy change will be negative as heat is lost by the system .

b ) Sine there is no change in the temperature of air , This heat will enter air at temperature ( 20+ 273) K = 293 K

Heat entering air

= .5 x 4200 x 65

= 136500 J

Change in entropy

136500 / 293 ( room temperature is constant at 293k

= + 465.87 J/K

Entropy change will be positive  as heat is gained  by the system .

Total change in the entropy of the system (tea + air )

= +465.87 - 417.6

= 48.27 J/K

Entropy change will be negative as heat is lost by the system .
