KATRIN_1 [288]

A turbine operating adiabatically is fed with steam at 400 °C and 8.0 MPa at the rate of 1000 kg/h. Process steam saturated at 0

.5 MPa is withdrawn from an intermediate location in the turbine at a rate of 300 kg/h, and the remaining steam leaves the turbine saturated at 0.1 MPa. The kinetic energies and differences in potential energies of all streams are negligible. What is the power output of the turbine?

Explanation:

We select the enthalpy of steam at state 1 at 800^{o}C and 8.0 MPa from the steam tables as follows.

                     h_{1} = 3138 kJ/kg

Also, we select the enthalpy of steam at state 2 at 0.5 MPa from the steam tables as follows.

                     h_{2} = 2748.6 kJ/kg

At state 3 also, from the steam tables at state 3 at 0.1 MPa.

                     h_{3} = 2675.1 kJ/kg

Hence, calculate the mass flow rate at state 3 as follows.

                  m_{3} = m_{1} - m_{2}

                              = 1000 kg/h - 300 kg/h

                              = 700 kg/h

Now, we will calculate the power output of the turbine as follows.

                 W_{r} = m_{1}(h_{1} - h_{2}) + m_{3}(h_{2} - h_{3})

                             = 1000 kg/h (3138 kJ/kg - 2748.6 kJ/kg) + 700 kg/h (2784.6 kJ/kg - 2675.1 kJ/kg)

                            = 440850 kJ/h

It is known that 1 kJ/h = 0.000278 kW.

Therefore,        440850 kJ/h \times \frac{0.000278 kW}{1 kJ/hr}    

                          = 122.56 kW

Thus, we can conclude that the power output of the turbine is 122.56 kW.

Forces that change an object motion by touching the object are _______ forces
strojnjashka [21]

Forces are pushes and pulls that may change the motion of an object. Balanced forces result in an object remaining at rest or moving at a constant speed. Unbalanced forces result in the acceleration of an object. An object's motion depends on how it changes position.

How can you tell the number of covalent bonds an element can form?
Sergio039 [100]

The number of bonds for a neutral atom is equal to the number of electrons in the full valence shell (2 or 8 electrons) minus the number of valence electrons. This method works because each covalent bond that an atom forms adds another electron to an atoms valence shell without changing its charge.

If the gas in the piston above has a volume of 20.0 L at a temperature of 25 C what is the volume of that gas when it is heated
dexar [7]

Answer:

15.98 L

Explanation:

First, you need to find T1, T2, V1 and V2.

T1 = 25 C = 298.15 K (25C + 273.15K)

T2 = 100 C = 373.15 K (100C + 273.15K)

V1 = 20. L

V2 = ? (we are trying to find)

Next, rearrange to fit the formula

V2 = V1 x T1 / T2

Next, fill in with our numbers

V2 = 20. L x 298.15 K / 373.15 K

Do the math and you should get...

15.98 L
