Air at 400 kPa, 980 K enters a turbine operating at steady state and exits at 100 kPa, 670 K. Heat transfer from the turbine occ

urs at an average outer surface temperature of 315 K at the rate of 30 kJ per kg of air flowing. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Assuming the air is modeled as an ideal gas with variations in specific heat, determine (a) the rate power is developed, in kJ per kg of air flowing, and (b) the rate of entropy production within the turbine, in kJ/K per kg of air flowing.

Answer:

A)W'/m = 311 KJ/kg

B)σ'_gen/m = 0.9113 KJ/kg.k

Explanation:

a).The energy rate balance equation in the control volume is given by the formula;

Q' - W' + m(h1 - h2) = 0

Dividing through by m, we have;

(Q'/m) - (W'/m) + (h1 - h2) = 0

Rearranging, we have;

W'/m = (Q'/m) + (h1 - h2)

Normally, this transforms to another equation;

W'/m = (Q'/m) + c_p(T1 - T2)

Where;

W'/m is the rate at which power is developed

Q'/m is the rate at which heat is flowing

c_p is specific heat at constant pressure which from tables at a temperature of 980k = 1.1 KJ/kg.k

T1 is initial temperature

T2 is exit temperature

We are given;

Q'/m = -30 kj/kg (negative because it leaves the turbine)

T1 = 980 k

T2 = 670 k

Plugging in the relevant values;

W'/m = -30 + 1.1(980 - 670)

W'/m = 311 KJ/kg

B) The Entropy produced from the entropy balance equation in a control volume is given by the formula;

(Q'/T_boundary) + m(s1 - s2) + σ'_gen = 0

Dividing through by m gives;

((Q'/m)/T_boundary) + (s1 - s2) + σ'_gen/m = 0

Rearranging, we have;

σ'_gen/m = -((Q'/m)/T_boundary) + (s2 - s1)

Under the conditions given in the question, this transforms normally to;

σ'_gen/m = -((Q'/m)/T_boundary) - c_p•In(T2/T1) - R•In(p2/p1)

σ'_gen/m is the rate of entropy production in kj/kg

We are given;

p2 = 100 kpa

p1 = 400 kpa

T_boundary = 315 K

For an ideal gas, R = 0.287 KJ/kg.K

Plugging in the relevant values including the ones initially written in answer a above, we have;

σ'_gen/m = -(-30/315) - 1.1(In(670/980)) - 0.287(In(100/400))

σ'_gen/m = 0.0952 + 0.4183 + 0.3979

σ'_gen/m = 0.9113 KJ/kg.k

SashulF [63]

Answer:

the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate.

Explanation:

NB: kindly check below for the attached picture.

The term ''Euler circuit'' can simply be defined as the graph that shows the edge of K once in a finite way by starting and putting a stop to it at the same vertex.

The term "Hamiltonian Circuit" is also known as the Hamiltonian cycle which is all about a one time visit to the vertex.

Here in this question, the door is the vertex and the road is the edge.

The information needed to detemine a Euler circuit and a Hamilton circuit is;

"the police officer cruise each streets precisely once and he enters and exit with the same gate."

Check attachment for each type of circuit and the differences.
