An isentropic steam turbine processes 5.5 kg/s of steam at 3 MPa, which is exhausted at 50 kPa and 100°C. Five percent of this f

low is diverted for feedwater heating at 500 kPa. Determine the power produced by this turbine. Use steam tables.

Answer:

The answer is 1823.9

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

m = 5.5 kg/s

= m₁ = m₂ = m₃

The work carried out by the energy balance is given as follows:

m₁h₁ = m₂h₂ +m₃h₃ + w

Now,

By applying the steam table we have that<

p₃ = 50 kPa

T₃ = 100°C

Which is

h₃ = 2682.4 kJ/KJ

s₃ = 7.6953 kJ/kgK

Since it is an isentropic process:

Then,

p₂ =  500 kPa

s₂=s₃ = 7.6953 kJ/kgK

which is

h₂ =3207.21 kJ/KgK

p₁ = 3HP0

s₁ = s₂=s₃ = 7.6953 kJ/kgK

h₁ =3854.85 kJ/kg

Thus,

Since 5 % of this flow diverted to p₂ =  500 kPa

Then

w =m (h₁-0.05 h₂ -0.95 )h₃

5.5(3854.85 - 0.05 * 3207.21  - 0.95 * 2682.4)

5.5( 3854.83 * 3207.21 - 0.95 * 2682.4)

5.5 ( 123363249.32 -0.95 * 2682.4)

w=1823.9

Brut [27]

Answer:

μ=0.329, 2.671 turns.

Explanation:

(a)   ln(T2/T1)=μβ         β=angle of contact in radians

take T2 as greater tension value and T1 smaller, otherwise the friction would be opposite.

T2=5000 lb and T1=80 lb

we have two full turns which makes total angle of contact=4π  radians

μ=ln(T2/T1)/β=(ln(5000/80))/4π  

μ=0.329

(b) using the same relation as above we will now compute the angle of contact.

take greater tension as T2 and smaller as T1.

T2=20000 lb     T1=80 lb   μ=0.329

β=ln(20000/80)/0.329=16.7825 radians

divide the angle of contact by 2π to obtain number of turns.

16.7825/2π =2.671 turns

ehidna [41]

Answer:

E=52000Hp.h

E=38724920Wh

E=1.028x10^11 ftlb

Explanation:

To solve this problem you must multiply the engine power by the time factor expressed in h / year, to find this value you must perform the conventional unit conversion procedure.

Finally, when you have the result Hp h / year you convert it to Ftlb and Wh

E=(12.5hp)(\frac{16h}{day} )(\frac{5 days}{week} )(\frac{52week}{year} )\\

E=52000Hp.h

E=52000Hp.h(\frac{744.71Wh}{Hp.h} )\\

E=38724920Wh

E=52000Hph(\frac{1977378.4  ft lb}{1Hph}

E=1.028x10^11 ftlb

What is the IMA of this pulley belt system if the diameter of the input
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

2.8

Explanation:

The ideal mechanical advantage of the pulley IMA  = D'/D where D' = diameter of output pulley = 7 inches and D = diameter of input pulley = 2.5 inches

So, IMA = D'/D

= 7/2.5

= 2.8

So, the ideal mechanical advantage of the pulley IMA = 2.8
