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 16 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. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.) The rate of total heat input is kW.

Air enters a cmpressor at 20 deg C and 80 kPa and exits at 800 kPa and 200 deg C. The power input is 400 kW. Find the heat trans
aksik [14]

Answer:

The heat is transferred is at the rate of 752.33 kW

Solution:

As per the question:

Temperature at inlet, T_{i} = 20^{\circ}C = 273 + 20 = 293 K

Temperature at the outlet, T_{o} = 200{\circ}C = 273 + 200 = 473 K

Pressure at inlet, P_{i} = 80 kPa = 80\times 10^{3} Pa

Pressure at outlet, P_{o} = 800 kPa = 800\times 10^{3} Pa

Speed at the outlet, v_{o} = 20 m/s

Diameter of the tube, D = 10 cm = 10\times 10^{- 2} m = 0.1 m

Input power, P_{i} = 400 kW = 400\times 10^{3} W

Now,

To calculate the heat transfer, Q, we make use of the steady flow eqn:

h_{i} + \frac{v_{i}^{2}}{2} + gH  + Q = h_{o} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + gH' + p_{s}

where

h_{i} = specific enthalpy at inlet

h_{o} = specific enthalpy at outlet

v_{i} = air speed at inlet

p_{s} = specific power input

H and H' = Elevation of inlet and outlet

Now, if

v_{i} = 0 and H = H'

Then the above eqn reduces to:

h_{i} + gH + Q = h_{o} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + gH + p_{s}

Q = h_{o} - h_{i} + \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2} + p_{s}                (1)

Also,

p_{s} = \frac{P_{i}}{ mass, m}

Area of cross-section, A = \frac{\pi D^{2}}{4} =\frac{\pi 0.1^{2}}{4} = 7.85\times 10^{- 3} m^{2}

Specific Volume at outlet, V_{o} = A\times v_{o} = 7.85\times 10^{- 3}\times 20 = 0.157 m^{3}/s

From the eqn:

P_{o}V_{o} = mRT_{o}

m = \frac{800\times 10^{3}\times 0.157}{287\times 473} = 0.925 kg/s

Now,

p_{s} = \frac{400\times 10^{3}}{0.925} = 432.432 kJ/kg

Also,

\Delta h = h_{o} - h_{i} = c_{p}\Delta T =c_{p}(T_{o} - T_{i}) = 1.005(200 - 20) = 180.9 kJ/kg

Now, using these values in eqn (1):

Q = 180.9 + \frac{20^{2}}{2} + 432.432 = 813.33 kW

Now, rate of heat transfer, q:

q = mQ = 0.925\times 813.33 = 752.33 kW

A cylindrical specimen of this alloy 12 mm in diameter and 188 mm long is to be pulled in tension. Assume a value of 0.34 for Po
kicyunya [14]

This question is incomplete, the missing image in uploaded along this answer below.

Answer:

The required stress is 200 Mpa

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

diameter D = 12 mm = 12 × 10⁻³ m

Length L = 188 mm = 188 × 10⁻³ m

Poisson's ratio v = 0.34

Reduction in diameter Δd = 0.0105 mm = 0.0105 × 10⁻³ m

The transverse strain will;

εˣ = Δd / D

εˣ = -0.0105 × 10⁻³ /  12 × 10⁻³ m

εˣ = -0.00088

The longitudinal strain will be;

E^z = - ( εˣ  / v )

E^z = - ( -0.00088  / 0.34 )

E^z = - ( - 0.002588 )

E^z = 0.0026

Now, Using the values for strain, we get the value of stress from the graph provided in the question, ( first image uploaded below.

From the graph, in the Second image;

The stress is 200 Mpa

Therefore, The required stress is 200 Mpa

I want a problems and there solutions of The inception of cavitation?​
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The overview of the given scenario is explained in explanation segment below.

Explanation:

  • The inception of cavitation, that further sets the restriction for high-pressure and high-free operation, has always been the matter of substantial experimental study over the last few generations.
  • Cavitation inception would be expected to vary on the segment where the local "PL" pressure mostly on segment keeps falling to that are below the "Pv" vapor pressure of the fluid and therefore could be anticipated from either the apportionment of the pressure.

    ⇒  A cavitation number is denoted by "σ" .
