Water steam enters a turbine at a temperature of 400 o C and a pressure of 3 MPa. Water saturated vapor exhausts from the turbin

e at a pressure of 125 kPa. At steady state, the work output of the turbine is 530 kJ/kg. The surrounding air is at 20 o C. Neglect the changes in kinetic energy and potential energy. Determine (20 points) (a) the heat transfer from the turbine to the surroundings per unit mass flow rate, (b) the entropy generation during this process.

Answer:

a) -505.229 kJ/Kg

b) -1.724 kJ/kg

Explanation:

T1 = 400°C

P1 = 3 MPa

P2 = 125 kPa

work output   = 530 kJ/kg

surrounding temperature = 20°C = 293 k

<u>A) Calculate heat transfer from Turbine to surroundings </u>

Q = h2 + w - h1

h ( enthalpy )

h1 = 3231.229 kj/kg

enthalpy at P2

h2 = hg = 2676 kj/kg

back to equation 1

Q = 2676 + 50 - 3231.229  = -505.229 kJ/Kg  ( i.e.  heat is lost )

<u>b) Entropy generation </u>

entropy generation = Δs ( surrounding )  + Δs(system)

                                =  - 505.229 / 293   + 0

                                = -1.724 kJ/kg

A fluid of specific gravity 0.96 flows steadily in a long, vertical 0.71-in.-diameter pipe with an average velocity of 0.90 ft/s
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

0.00650 Ib s /ft^2

Explanation:

diameter ( D ) = 0.71 inches = 0.0591 ft

velocity = 0.90 ft/s ( V )

fluid specific gravity = 0.96 (62.4 )  ( x )

change in pressure ( P ) = 0 because pressure was constant

viscosity =  (change in p - X sin∅ ) D^{2} / 32 V

              = ( 0 - 0.96( 62.4) sin -90 ) * 0.0591 ^2  / 32 * 0.90

              = - 59.904 sin (-90) * 0.0035 / 28.8

              = 0.1874 / 28.8

  viscosity = 0.00650 Ib s /ft^2

Using the celsius_to_kelvin function as a guide, create a new function, changing the name to kelvin_to_celsius, and modifying th
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

# kelvin_to_celsius function is defined

# it has value_kelvin as argument

def kelvin_to_celsius(value_kelvin):

   # value_celsius is initialized to 0.0

   value_celsius = 0.0

   

   # value_celsius is calculated by

   # subtracting 273.15 from value_kelvin

   value_celsius = value_kelvin - 273.15

   # value_celsius is returned

   return value_celsius

   

# celsius_to_kelvin function is defined

# it has value_celsius as argument

def celsius_to_kelvin(value_celsius):

   # value_kelvin is initialized to 0.0

   value_kelvin = 0.0

   

   # value_kelvin is calculated by

   # adding 273.15 to value_celsius

   value_kelvin = value_celsius + 273.15

   # value_kelvin is returned

   return value_kelvin

   

value_c = 0.0

value_k = 0.0

value_c = 10.0

# value_c = 10.0 is used to test the function celsius_to_kelvin

# the result is displayed

print(value_c, 'C is', celsius_to_kelvin(value_c), 'K')

value_k = 283.15

# value_k = 283.15 is used to test the function kelvin_to_celsius

# the result is displayed

print(value_k, 'is', kelvin_to_celsius(value_k), 'C')

Explanation:

Image of celsius_to_kelvin function used as guideline is attached
