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

A solid cylindrical workpiece made of 304 stainless steel is 150 mm in diameter and 100 mm is high. It is reduced in height by 5
goblinko [34]

Answer:

45.3 MN

Explanation:

The forging force at the end of the stroke is given by

F = Y.π.r².[1 + (2μr/3h)]

The final height, h is given as h = 100/2

h = 50 mm

Next, we find the final radius by applying the volume constancy law

volumes before deformation = volumes after deformation

π * 75² * 2 * 100 = π * r² * 2 * 50

75² * 2 = r²

r² = 11250

r = √11250

r = 106 mm

E = In(100/50)

E = 0.69

From the graph flow, we find that Y = 1000 MPa, and thus, we apply the formula

F = Y.π.r².[1 + (2μr/3h)]

F = 1000 * 3.142 * 0.106² * [1 + (2 * 0.2 * 0.106/ 3 * 0.05)]

F = 35.3 * [1 + 0.2826]

F = 35.3 * 1.2826

F = 45.3 MN

How is the fuel introduced into the Diesel engine?
Ugo [173]

Answer:

diesel fuel is pumped at high pressure to the injectors which are responsible for entering the fuel into the combustion chamber,

when the piston is at the top the pressure is so high that it explodes the fuel (diesel) that results in a generation of mechanical power

Identify an object in your house that contains a physical system and list three questions you could use to define the system
jonny [76]

Answer:

ALL CAREFULLY ANSWERED CORRECTLY

Explanation:

1) A loaf of Bread PHYSICAL SYSTEM

✓ How can the environment affect the edibility of the bread

✓ What are the constituents that makes up the bread

✓ What process is involved in these constituents mixing to form the loaf.

2) The law of thermodynamics makes us to understand that when heat/energy passes through a system, the systems internal energy changes with respect to the conservation of energy law. That is energy lost = energy gained. Typically, ice would melt in a cup of hot tea because of the thermal energy in the molecules of the hot tea. When you heat a material, you are adding thermal kinetic energy to its molecules and usually raising its temperature. The temperature of the ice raises due to the kinetic energy added to it and it melts to water.

3) The theory of systems view the world as a complex system of interconnected parts. If we consider the society; (financial systems, political systems, etc) we will agree that they individually have their own components and it's the summation of this components that makes the system, this implies that system thinking could be applicable in this kinda of systems as long as they are made up of components.

4) Technology has boosted every sector of our lives and it has the capacity to do more. Restricting it's importance to entertainment alone would be an underusing of its potentials. Engineering students infact should not need any drive to be encouraged about maximizing all it can do in shaping our world.

5) ~ Nature shows its splendid soul

~Never ceases to leave us in amazement

~And we are in love
