. The gas-turbine cycle of a combined gas–steam power plant has a pressure ratio of 8. Air enters the compressor at 290 K and the turbine at 1400 K. The combustion gases leaving the gas turbine are used to heat the steam at 15 MPa to 450°C in a heat exchanger. The combustion gases leave the heat exchanger at 247°C. Steam expands in a high-pressure turbine to a pressure of 3 MPa and is reheated in the combustion chamber to 500°C before it expands in a low-pressure turbine to 10 kPa. The mass flow rate of steam is 17 kg/s. Assume isentropic efficiencies of 100 percent for the pump, 85 percent for the compressor, and 90 percent for the gas and steam turbines.
Determine the rate of total heat input.

Answer:

h1 = 290.16kj/kg

P = 1.2311

Prandil expression at 8

P=p1/p7×pr

=8(1.2311)

=9.85

Enthalpy state at 8 corresponding to 9.85

h1 = 526.13kj/kg

Now prandtl state at 9 that correspond to 1400k.

h9 = 1515.42kj/kg

Pr = 450.5

Prandtl expression at state 10

P= p10/p9×pr

=1/8(450.5)

=56.31

Enthalpy at state 10 corresponding to prandtl 56.31

h10 = 860.39kj/kg

At 520k

h11 = 523.63kj/kg

kotegsom [21]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

For some transformation having kinetics that obey the Avrami equation, the parameter n is known to have a value of 2. If, after 100 s, the reaction is 40% complete, how long (total time in seconds) will it take the transformation to go to 95% completion

y = 1 - exp( -ktⁿ )

Answer: the time required for 95% transformation is 242.17 s

Explanation:

First, we calculate the value of k which is the dependent variable in Avrami equation

y = 1 - exp( -ktⁿ )

exp( -ktⁿ ) = 1 - y

-ktⁿ = In( 1 - y )

k = - In( 1 - y ) / tⁿ

now given that; n = 2, y = 40% = 0.40, and t = 100 s

we substitute

k = - In( 1 - 0.40 ) / 100²

k = - In(0.60) / 10000

k = 0.5108 / 10000

k = 0.00005108 ≈ 5.108 × 10⁻⁵

Now calculate the time required for 95% transformation

tⁿ = - In( 1 - y ) / k

t = [- In( 1 - y ) / k ]^1/n

n = 2, y = 95% = 0.95 and k = 5.108 × 10⁻⁵

we substitute our values

t = [- In( 1 - 0.95 ) / 5.108 × 10⁻⁵ ]^1/2

t = [2.9957 / 5.108 × 10⁻⁵]^1/2

t = [ 58647.22 ]^1/2

t = 242.17 s

Therefore the time required for 95% transformation is 242.17 s

1. A glass window of width W = 1 m and height H = 2 m is 5 mm thick and has a thermal conductivity of kg = 1.4 W/m*K. If the inn
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

1. \dot Q=19600\ W

2. \dot Q=120\ W

Explanation:

1.

Given:

  • height of the window pane, h=2\ m
  • width of the window pane, w=1\ m
  • thickness of the pane, t=5\ mm= 0.005\ m
  • thermal conductivity of the glass pane, k_g=1.4\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • temperature of the inner surface, T_i=15^{\circ}C
  • temperature of the outer surface, T_o=-20^{\circ}C

<u>According to the Fourier's law the rate of heat transfer is given as:</u>

\dot Q=k_g.A.\frac{dT}{dx}

here:

A = area through which the heat transfer occurs = 2\times 1=2\ m^2

dT = temperature difference across the thickness of the surface = 35^{\circ}C

dx = t = thickness normal to the surface = 0.005\ m

\dot Q=1.4\times 2\times \frac{35}{0.005}

\dot Q=19600\ W

2.

  • air spacing between two glass panes, dx=0.01\ m
  • area of each glass pane, A=2\times 1=2\ m^2
  • thermal conductivity of air, k_a=0.024\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • temperature difference between the surfaces, dT=25^{\circ}C

<u>Assuming layered transfer of heat through the air and the air between the glasses is always still:</u>

\dot Q=k_a.A.\frac{dT}{dx}

\dot Q=0.024\times 2\times \frac{25}{0.01}

\dot Q=120\ W

The 1000-lb elevator is hoisted by the pulley system and motor M. The motor exerts a constant force of 500 lb on the cable. The
klemol [59]

The power that must be supplied to the motor is 136 hp

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

weight of the elevator, m = 1000 lb

Force on the table, F = 500 lb

Distance, s = 27 ft

Efficiency, ε = 0.65

Power  = ?

According to the equation of motion:

F = ma

3(500) - 1000 = \frac{1000}{32.2} * a

a = 16.1 ft/s²

We know,

v^2 - u^2 = 2a (S - So)\\\\v^2 - (0)^2 = 2 * 16.1 (27-0)\\\\v = 29.48m/s

To calculate the output power:

Pout = F. v

Pout = 3 (500) * 29.48

Pout = 44220 lb.ft/s

As efficiency is given and output power is known, we can calculate the input power.

ε = Pout / Pin

0.65 = 44220 / Pin

Pin = 68030.8 lb.ft/s

Pin = 68030.8 / 500 hp

     = 136 hp

Therefore, the power that must be supplied to the motor is 136 hp
