An inventor claims to have invented a heat engine that operates between the temperatures of 627°C and 27°C with a thermal effici
1 answer:
Answer Explanation:
the efficiency of the the engine is given by=1-
where T₂= lower temperature
T₁= Higher temperature
we have given efficiency =70%
lower temperature T₂=27°C=273+27=300K
higher temperature T₁=627°C=273+627=900K
efficiency=1-
=1-
=1-0.3333
=0.6666
=66%
66% is less than 70% so so inventor claim is wrong

Answer:
Explanation:
There are a total of 6 states and 3 bits in this problem. Whenever the Reset button is pressed, RESET state is called otherwise the state according to the diagram is called. For the combination to be "01011", the input sequence has to be in the same order. If 0 is pressed instead of 1 in state "010", the last state of output ending with 0 will be called and likewise in all the states that follow.
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:
