Answer:

ρ = 1.13 10⁴ km/m³

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Newton's equilibrium equation

B –W + W_scale = 0

Where B is the thrust and W_scale is the balance reading

The push is given by Archimedes' law

B = ρ_water g V

B = W- W_scale

B = m g - m_scale g

Let's calculate

B = 14.7 9.8 - 13.4 9.8

B = 12.74 N

ρ_water g V = 12.74

V = 12.74 / ρ_water g

V = 12.74 / 1000 9.8

V = 0.0013 m³

Let's use density

ρ = m / V

We replace

ρ = 14.7 / 0.0013

ρ = 1.13 10⁴ km/m³

Answer:

a) $\Delta \dot K = 24.570\,kW$ , b) $\dot W_{out} = 12729.15\,kW$ , c) $A_{in} = 0.0136\,m^{2}$

Explanation:

A turbine is a device which works usually in steady state and assumption of being adiabatic means no heat interactions between steam through turbine and surroudings and produce mechanical work from fluid energy. Changes in gravitational energy can be neglected. This system can be modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics:

$-\dot W_{out} + \dot m \cdot (h_{in} - h_{out}) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \dot m \cdot (v_{in}^{2}-v_{out}^{2}) = 0$

a) Change in kinetic energy

$\Delta \dot K = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \dot m \cdot (v_{in}^{2} - v_{out}^{2})$

$\Delta \dot K = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \left(12.6\,\frac{kg}{s} \right) \cdot \left[\left(80\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(50\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]$

$\Delta \dot K = 24570\,W$

$\Delta \dot K = 24.570\,kW$

b) Power output

$\dot W_{out} = \dot m \cdot (h_{in} - h_{out}) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \dot m \cdot (v_{in}^{2}-v_{out}^{2})$

$\dot W_{out} = \left(12.6\,\frac{kg}{s}\right)\cdot \left(3446\,\frac{kJ}{kg} - 2437.7\,\frac{kJ}{kg} \right) + 24.570\,kW$

$\dot W_{out} = 12729.15\,kW$

c) Turbine inlet area

Turbine inlet area can be found by using the following expressions:

$\dot V_{in} = \dot m \cdot \nu_{in}$

$\dot V_{in} = \left(12.6\,\frac{kg}{s}\right) \cdot \left(0.086442\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg} \right)$

$\dot V_{in} = 1.089\,\frac{m^{3}}{s}$

$A_{in} = \frac{\dot V_{in}}{v_{in}}$

$A_{in} = \frac{1.089\,\frac{m^{3}}{s} }{80\,\frac{m}{s} }$

$A_{in} = 0.0136\,m^{2}$
