Steam flows steadily through an adiabatic turbine. The inlet conditions of the steam are 10 MPa, 450°C, and 80 m/s, and the exit

conditions are 10 kPa, 92% quality, and 50 m/s. The mass flow rate of the steam is 12 kg/s.

Answer:

a) The change in Kinetic energy, KE = -1.95 kJ

b) Power output, W = 10221.72 kW

c) Turbine inlet area, A_1 = 0.0044 m^2

Explanation:

a) Change in Kinetic Energy

For an adiabatic steady state flow of steam:

KE = \frac{V_2^2 - V_1^2}{2} \\.........(1)

Where Inlet velocity,  V₁ = 80 m/s

Outlet velocity, V₂ = 50 m/s

Substitute these values into equation (1)

KE = \frac{50^2 - 80^2}{2} \\

KE = -1950 m²/s²

To convert this to kJ/kg, divide by 1000

KE = -1950/1000

KE = -1.95 kJ/kg

b) The power output, w

The equation below is used to represent a  steady state flow.

q - w = h_2 - h_1 + KE + g(z_2 - z_1)

For an adiabatic process, the rate of heat transfer, q = 0

z₂ = z₁

The equation thus reduces to :

w = h₁ - h₂ - KE...........(2)

Where Power output, W = \dot{m}w..........(3)

Mass flow rate, \dot{m} = 12 kg/s

To get the specific enthalpy at the inlet, h₁

At P₁ = 10 MPa, T₁ = 450°C,

h₁ = 3242.4 kJ/kg,

Specific volume, v₁ = 0.029782 m³/kg

At P₂ = 10 kPa, h_f = 191.81 kJ/kg, h_{fg} = 2392.1 kJ/kg, x₂ = 0.92

specific enthalpy at the outlet, h₂ = h_1 + x_2 h_{fg}

h₂ = 3242.4 + 0.92(2392.1)

h₂ = 2392.54 kJ/kg

Substitute these values into equation (2)

w = 3242.4 - 2392.54 - (-1.95)

w = 851.81 kJ/kg

To get the power output, put the value of w into equation (3)

W = 12 * 851.81

W = 10221.72 kW

c) The turbine inlet area

A_1V_1 = \dot{m}v_1\\\\A_1 * 80 = 12 * 0.029782\\\\80A_1 = 0.357\\\\A_1 = 0.357/80\\\\A_1 = 0.0044 m^2

An open vat in a food processing plant contains 500 L of water at 20°C and atmospheric pressure. If the water is heated to 80°C,
tester [92]

Answer:

percentage change in volume is 2.60%

water level rise is 4.138 mm

Explanation:

given data

volume of water V = 500 L

temperature T1 = 20°C

temperature T2 = 80°C

vat diameter = 2 m

to find out

percentage change in volume and how much water level rise

solution

we will apply here bulk modulus equation that is ratio of change in pressure   to rate of change of volume to change of pressure

and we know that is also in term of change in density also

so

E = -\frac{dp}{dV/V}  ................1

And -\frac{dV}{V} = \frac{d\rho}{\rho}   ............2

here ρ is density

and we know ρ  for 20°C = 998 kg/m³

and ρ  for 80°C = 972 kg/m³

so from equation 2 put all value

-\frac{dV}{V} = \frac{d\rho}{\rho}

-\frac{dV}{500*10^{-3} } = \frac{972-998}{998}

dV = 0.0130 m³

so now  % change in volume will be

dV % = -\frac{dV}{V}  × 100

dV % = -\frac{0.0130}{500*10^{-3} }  × 100

dV % = 2.60 %

so percentage change in volume is 2.60%

and

initial volume v1 = \frac{\pi }{4} *d^2*l(i)    ................3

final volume v2 = \frac{\pi }{4} *d^2*l(f)    ................4

now from equation 3 and 4 , subtract v1 by v2

v2 - v1 =  \frac{\pi }{4} *d^2*(l(f)-l(i))

dV = \frac{\pi }{4} *d^2*dl

put here all value

0.0130 = \frac{\pi }{4} *2^2*dl

dl = 0.004138 m

so water level rise is 4.138 mm
