A tank with some water in it begins to drain. The function v ( t ) = 46 − 3.5 t determines the volume of the water in the tank (

olchik [2.2K]

Answer with Explanation:

Part a)

The volume of water in the tank as a function of time is plotted in the below attached figure.

The vertical intercept of the graph is 46.

Part b)

The vertical intercept represents the volume of water that is initially present in the tank before draining begins.

Part c)

To find the time required to completely drain the tank we calculate the volume of the water in the tank to zero.

$0=46-3.5t\\\\3.5=46\\\\\therefore t=\frac{46}{3.5}=13.143minutes$

Part d)

The horizontal intercept represents the time it takes to empty the tank which as calculated above is 13.143 minutes.

Air modeled as an ideal gas enters a turbine operating at steady state at 1040 K, 278 kPa and exits at 120 kPa. The mass flow ra

gladu [14]

Answer:

a) $T_{2}=837.2K$

b) $e=91.3$ %

Explanation:

A) First, let's write the energy balance:

$W=m*(h_{2}-h_{1})\\W=m*Cp*(T_{2}-T_{1})$ (The enthalpy of an ideal gas is just function of the temperature, not the pressure).

The Cp of air is: 1.004 $\frac{kJ}{kgK}$ And its specific R constant is 0.287 $\frac{kJ}{kgK}$ .

The only unknown from the energy balance is $T_{2}$ , so it is possible to calculate it. The power must be negative because the work is done by the fluid, so the energy is going out from it.

$T_{2}=T_{1}+\frac{W}{mCp}=1040K-\frac{1120kW}{5.5\frac{kg}{s}*1.004\frac{kJ}{kgk}} \\T_{2}=837.2K$

B) The isentropic efficiency (e) is defined as:

$e=\frac{h_{2}-h_{1}}{h_{2s}-h_{1}}$

Where ${h_{2s}$ is the isentropic enthalpy at the exit of the turbine for the isentropic process. The only missing in the last equation is that variable, because $h_{2}-h_{1}$ can be obtained from the energy balance $\frac{W}{m}=h_{2}-h_{1}$

$h_{2}-h_{1}=\frac{-1120kW}{5.5\frac{kg}{s}}=-203.64\frac{kJ}{kg}$

An entropy change for an ideal gas with constant Cp is given by:

$s_{2}-s_{1}=Cpln(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})-Rln(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}})$

You can review its deduction on van Wylen 6 Edition, section 8.10.

For the isentropic process the equation is:

$0=Cpln(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})-Rln(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}})\\Rln(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}})=Cpln(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})$

Applying logarithm properties:

$ln((\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}})^{R} )=ln((\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})^{Cp} )\\(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}})^{R}=(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})^{Cp}\\(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}})^{R/Cp}=(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})\\T_{2}=T_{1}(\frac{P_{2}}{P_{1}})^{R/Cp}$

Then,

$T_{2}=1040K(\frac{120kPa}{278kPa})^{0.287/1.004}=817.96K$

So, now it is possible to calculate $h_{2s}-h_{1}$ :

$h_{2s}-h_{1}}=Cp(T_{2s}-T_{1}})=1.004\frac{kJ}{kgK}*(817.96K-1040K)=-222.92\frac{kJ}{kg}$

Finally, the efficiency can be calculated:

$e=\frac{h_{2}-h_{1}}{h_{2s}-h_{1}}=\frac{-203.64\frac{kJ}{kg}}{-222.92\frac{kJ}{kg}}\\e=0.913=91.3$ %
