Steam enters a two-stage adiabatic turbine at 8 MPa and 5008C. It expands in the first stage to a state of 2 MPa and 3508C. Stea

m is then reheated at constant pressure to a temperature of 5008C before it is routed to the second stage, where it exits at 30 kPa and a quality of 97 percent. The work output of the turbine is 5 MW. Assuming the surroundings to be at 258C, determine the reversible power output and the rate of exergy destruction within this turbine.

Answer:

1) The exergy of destruction is approximately 456.93 kW

2) The reversible power output is approximately 5456.93 kW

Explanation:

1) The given parameters are;

P₁ = 8 MPa

T₁ = 500°C

From which we have;

s₁ = 6.727 kJ/(kg·K)

h₁ = 3399 kJ/kg

P₂ = 2 MPa

T₂ = 350°C

From which we have;

s₂ = 6.958 kJ/(kg·K)

h₂ = 3138 kJ/kg

P₃ = 2 MPa

T₃ = 500°C

From which we have;

s₃ = 7.434 kJ/(kg·K)

h₃ = 3468 kJ/kg

P₄ = 30 KPa

T₄ = 69.09 C (saturation temperature)

From which we have;

h₄ = h_{f4} + x₄×h_{fg} = 289.229 + 0.97*2335.32 = 2554.49 kJ/kg

s₄ =  s_{f4} + x₄×s_{fg} = 0.94394 + 0.97*6.8235 ≈ 7.563 kJ/(kg·K)

The exergy of destruction, \dot X_{dest}, is given as follows;

\dot X_{dest} = T₀ × \dot S_{gen} = T₀ × \dot m × (s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)

\dot X_{dest} = T₀ × \dot W×(s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)/(h₁ + h₃ - h₂ - h₄)

∴ \dot X_{dest} = 298.15 × 5000 × (7.563 + 6.958 - 6.727 - 7.434)/(3399 + 3468 - 3138  - 2554.49) ≈ 456.93 kW

The exergy of destruction ≈ 456.93 kW

2) The reversible power output, \dot W_{rev} = \dot W_{} + \dot X_{dest} ≈ 5000 + 456.93 kW = 5456.93 kW

The reversible power output ≈ 5456.93 kW.

3. If nothing can ever be at absolute zero, why does the concept exist?
Tanzania [10]

The absolute zero in temperature refers to the minimal possible temperature. It is the temperature at which the molecules of a system stop moving, so it is a really useful reference point.

<h3>Why absolute zero can't be reached?</h3>

It would mean that we need to remove all the energy from a system, but to do this we need to interact with the system in some way, and by interacting with it we give it "some" energy.

Actually, from a quantum mechanical point of view, the absolute zero has a residual energy (so it is not actually zero) and it is called the "zero point". This happens because it must meet <u>Heisenberg's uncertainty principle</u>.

So yes, the absolute zero can't be reached, but there are really good approximations (At the moment there is a difference of about 150 nanokelvins between the absolute zero and the smallest temperature reached). Also, there are a lot of investigations near the absolute zero, like people that try to reach it or people that just need to work with really low temperatures, like in type I superconductors.

So, concluding, why does the concept exist?

  • Because it is a reference point.
  • It is the theoretical temperature at which the molecules stop moving, defining this as the <u>minimum possible temperature.</u>

A motorcycle starts from rest with an initial acceleration of 3 m/s^2, and the acceleration then changes with the distance s as
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Calculating the area under the curve:  

A = as

   =\frac{1}{2}(3 +6 \frac{m}{s^2})(100 \ m)+ \frac{1}{2}(6+4 \frac{m}{s^2})(100 m) \\\\=\frac{1}{2}(9 \frac{m}{s^2})(100 \ m)+ \frac{1}{2}(10\frac{m}{s^2})(100 m) \\\\=\frac{1}{2}(900 \frac{m^2}{s^2})+ \frac{1}{2}(1,000\frac{m^2}{s^2}) \\\\=(450 \frac{m^2}{s^2})+ (500\frac{m^2}{s^2}) \\\\= 950 \ \frac{m^2}{s^2}

Calculating the kinematics equation:

\to v^2 = v^2_{o} + 2as\\\\

        =0+ \sqrt{2as}\\\\ = \sqrt{2(A)}\\\\= \sqrt{2(950 \frac{m^2}{s^2})}\\\\= 43.59 \frac{m}{s}

Calculating the value of acceleration:  

\to a= \frac{dv}{dt}

=\frac{dv}{ds}(\frac{ds}{dt}) \\\\=v\frac{dv}{ds}\\\\\to \frac{dv}{ds}=\frac{a}{v}

\to \frac{dv}{ds} =\frac{4 \frac{m}{s^2}}{43.59 \frac{m}{s}} \\\\

         =\frac{0.092}{s}

A 3.0-m wide rectangular asphalt channel discharges 33.84 m^3/s of water with a depth of 2.0 m. What is the head loss in 100 m l
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Head loss in 100 m length equals 1.00 m.

Explanation:

The head loss in an open channel is calculated using manning's equation as follows

Q=\frac{1}{n}\frac{A^{5/3}}{P^{2/3}}S_{f}^{1/2}

For a asphalt rectangular channel we have

Area of flow = 3.0\times 2.0 = 6m^{2}

Wetted Perimeter = 3.0+2\times 2.0=7.0m

manning's roughness coefficient = 0.016

Applying values in the above equation we get

33.84=\frac{1}{0.016}\times \frac{6^{5/3}}{7^{2/3}}S_{f}^{1/2}\\\\\therefore S^{1/2}_{f}=0.1\\\\\therefore S_{f}=0.01

Now we know that

S_{f}=\frac{H_{L}}{L}\\\\\therefore H_{l}=0.01\times 100m=1.00m
