Steam enters a turbine in a Rankine cycle power plant at 200 psia and 500 °F. a) Calculate the isentropic thermal efficiency if

the condenser pressure is 14.7 psia. b) How much will the isentropic thermal efficiency change if the condenser pressure is 1.0 psia.

Answer:

η=0.19=19% for p=14.7psi

η=0.3=30% for p=1psi

Explanation:

enthalpy before the turbine, state: superheated steam

h1(p=200psi,t=500F)=2951.9KJ/kg

s1=6.8kJ/kgK

Entalpy after the turbine

h2(p=14.7psia, s=6.8)=2469KJ/Kg

Entalpy  before the boiler

h3=(p=14.7psia,x=0)=419KJ/Kg

Learn to pronounce

the efficiency for a simple rankine cycle is

η=\frac{h1-h2}{h1-h3}

η=(2951.9KJ/kg-2469KJ/Kg)/(2951.9KJ/kg-419KJ/Kg)

η=0.19=19%

second part

h2(p=1psia, s=6.8)=2110

h3(p=1psia, x=0)=162.1

η=(2951.9KJ/kg-2110KJ/Kg)/(2951.9KJ/kg-162.1KJ/Kg)

η=0.3=30%

A high molecular weight hydrocarbon gas A is fed continuously into a heated mixed flow reactor (0.1liter) where it is thermally
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Space velocity = 30 hr⁻¹

Explanation:

Space velocity for reactors express how much reactor volume of feed or reactants can be treated per unit time. For example, a space velocity of 3 hr⁻¹ means the reactor can process 3 times its volume per hour.

It is given mathematically as

Space velocity = (volumetric flow rate of the reactants)/(the reactor volume)

Volumetric flowrate of the reeactants

= (molar flow rate)/(concentration)

Molar flowrate of the reactants = 300 millimol/hr

Concentration of the reactants = 100 millimol/liter

Volumetric flowrate of the reactants = (300/100) = 3 liters/hr

Reactor volume = 0.1 liter

Space velocity = (3/0.1) = 30 /hr = 30 hr⁻¹

Hope this Helps!!!

Write a program that prompts for a line of text and then transforms the text based on chosen actions. Actions include reversing
nlexa [21]

Answer:

public class TextConverterDemo

{

//Method definition of action1337

public static String action1337(String current)

{

//Replace each L or l with a 1 (numeral one)

 current = current.replace('L', '1');

 current = current.replace('l', '1');

 

 //Replace each E or e with a 3 (numeral three)

 current = current.replace('E', '3');

 current = current.replace('e', '3');

 //Replace each T or t with a 7 (numeral seven)

 current = current.replace('T', '7');

 current = current.replace('t', '7');

 //Replace each O or o with a 0 (numeral zero)

 current = current.replace('O', '0');

 current = current.replace('o', '0');

 

//Replace each S or s with a $ (dollar sign)

 current = current.replace('S', '$');

 current = current.replace('s', '$');

 return current;

}

//Method definition of actionReverse

//This method is used to reverses the order of

//characters in the current string

public static String actionReverse(String current)

{

 //Create a StringBuilder's object

 StringBuilder originalStr = new StringBuilder();

 //Append the original string to the StribgBuilder's object

 originalStr.append(current);

 //Use reverse method to reverse the original string

 originalStr = originalStr.reverse();

 

 //return the string in reversed order

 return originalStr.toString();

}

//Method definition of main

public static void main(String[] args)

{

    //Declare variables

 String input, action;

 

 //Prompt the input message

 System.out.println("Welcome to the Text Converter.");

 System.out.println("Available Actions:");

 System.out.println("\t1337) convert to 1337-speak");

 System.out.println("\trev) reverse the string");

 System.out.print("Please enter a string: ");

   

 //Create a Scanner class's object

 Scanner scn = new Scanner(System.in);

 

 //Read input from the user

 input = scn.nextLine();

 do

 {

  /*Based on the action the user chooses, call the appropriate

   * action method. If an unrecognized action is entered then

   * the message "Unrecognized action." should be shown on a

   * line by itself and then the user is prompted again just

   * as they were when an action was performed.

   * */

  System.out.print("Action (1337, rev, quit): ");

  action = scn.nextLine();

  if (action.equals("1337"))

  {

   input = action1337(input);

   System.out.println(input);

  } else if (action.equals("rev"))

  {

   input = actionReverse(input);

   System.out.println(input);

  } else if (!action.equals("quit"))

  {

   System.out.println("Unrecognized action.");

  }

 } while (!action.equals("quit"));

 System.out.println("See you next time!");

 scn.close();

}

Un mol de gas ideal realiza un trabajo de 3000 J sobre su entorno, cuando se expande de manera isotermica a una temperatura de 5
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

74,4 litros

Explanation:

Dado que

W = nRT ln (Vf / Vi)

W = 3000J

R = 8,314 JK-1mol-1

T = 58 + 273 = 331 K

Vf = desconocido

Vi = 25 L

W / nRT = ln (Vf / Vi)

W / nRT = 2.303 log (Vf / Vi)

W / nRT * 1 / 2.303 = log (Vf / Vi)

Vf / Vi = Antilog (W / nRT * 1 / 2.303)

Vf = Antilog (W / nRT * 1 / 2.303) * Vi

Vf = Antilog (3000/1 * 8,314 * 331 * 1 / 2,303) * 25

Vf = 74,4 litros

What colour is best for radiative heat transfer? a. Black b. Brown c. Blue d. White
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 'a': Black

Explanation:

As we know that for an object which is black in color it absorbs all the electromagnetic radiation's that are incident on it. Thus if we need to transfer energy to an object by radiation the most suitable color for the process  is black.

In contrast to black color white color is an excellent reflector, reflecting all the incident radiation that may be incident on it hence is the least suitable material for radiative heat transfer.
