Complete Question
Air at 40C flows over a 2 m long flat plate with a free stream velocity of 7m/s. Assume the width of the plate (into the paper) is 0.5 m. If the plate is at a co temperature of 100C,find:
The total heat transfer rate from the plate to the air
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Air Temperature
Length
Velocity
Width
Constant temperature
Generally the equation for Total heat Transfer is mathematically given by
Where
h=Convective heat transfer coefficient
Therefore
Answer:
Explanation:
First, we will find actual properties at given inlet and outlet states by the use of steam tables:
AT INLET:
At 4MPa and 350°C, from the superheated table:
h₁ = 3093.3 KJ/kg
s₁ = 6.5843 KJ/kg.K
AT OUTLET:
At P₂ = 125 KPa and steam is saturated in vapor state:
h₂ = = 2684.9 KJ/kg
Now, for the isentropic enthalpy, we have:
P₂ = 125 KPa and s₂ = s₁ = 6.5843 KJ/kg.K
Since s₂ is less than and greater than
at 125 KPa. Therefore, the steam is in a saturated mixture state. So:
Now, we will find (enthalpy at the outlet for the isentropic process):
Now, the isentropic efficiency of the turbine can be given as follows:
