Which option distinguishes the step in the engineering design phase described in the following scenario?

Steam at 40 bar and 500o C enters the first-stage turbine with a volumetric flow rate of 90 m3 /min. Steam exits the turbine at

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

(a) 62460 kg/hr

(b) 17,572.95 kW

(c) 3,814.57 kW

Explanation:

Volumetric flow rate, G = 30 m³ / 1 min => 90 / 60 => 1.5

Calculate for h₁ , h₂ , h₃

h₁ is h at P = 40 bar, 500°C => 3445.84 KJ/Kg

Specific volume steam, ц = 0.086441 m³kg⁻¹

h₂ is h at P = 20 bar, 400°C => 3248.23 KJ/Kg

h₃ is h at P = 20 bar, 500°C => 3468.09 KJ/Kg

h₄ is hg at P = 0.6 bar from saturated water table => 2652.85 KJ/Kg

a)

Mass flow rate of the steam, m = G / ц

m = 1.5 / 0.086441

m = 17.35 kg/s

mass per hour is m = 62460 kg/hr

b)

Total Power produced by two stages

= m (h₁ - h₂) + m (h₃ - h₁)

= m [(3445.84 - 3248.23) + (3468.09 - 2652.85)]

= m [ 197.61 + 815.24 ]

= 17.35 [1012.85]

= 17,572.95 kW

c)

Rate of heat transfer to the steam through reheater

= m (h₃ - h₂)

= 17.35 x (3468.09 - 3248.23)

= 17.35 x 219.86

= 3,814.57 kW

Refrigerant-134a at 700 kPa, 70°C, and 7.2 kg/min is cooled by water in a condenser until it exists as a saturated liquid at the

alex41 [277]

Answer:

The mass flow rate of cooling water required to cool the refrigerant is $123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}$ .

Explanation:

A condenser is a heat exchanger used to cool working fluid (Refrigerant 134a) at the expense of cooling fluid (water), which works usually at steady state. Let suppose that there is no heat interactions between condenser and surroundings.The condenser is modelled after the First Law of Thermodynamics, which states:

$\dot Q_{ref} - \dot Q_{w} = 0$

$\dot Q_{ref} = \dot Q_{w}$

$\dot m_{ref}\cdot (h_{ref, in} - h_{ref,out}) = \dot m_{w}\cdot (h_{w, out} - h_{w,in})$

The mass flow rate of the cooling water is now cleared:

$\dot m_{w} = \dot m_{ref }\cdot \frac{h_{ref,in}-h_{ref,out}}{h_{w,out}-h_{w,in}}$

Given that $h_{ref,in} = 808.34\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$ , $h_{ref, out} = 88.82\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$ , $h_{w,out} = 104.83\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$ and $h_{w,in} = 62.98\,\frac{kJ}{kg}$ , the mass flow of the cooling water is:

$\dot m_{w} = \left(7.2\,\frac{kg}{min} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{808.34\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-88.82\,\frac{kJ}{kg} }{104.83\,\frac{kJ}{kg}-62.98\,\frac{kJ}{kg} } \right)$

$\dot m_{w} = 123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}$

The mass flow rate of cooling water required to cool the refrigerant is $123.788\,\frac{kg}{min}$ .

3241004551 [841]

A model of living systems as whole entities which maintain themselves through continuous input and output from the environment, developed by ludwig von bertalanffy is known as Systems theory.

<h3>what are the application of systems theory?</h3>

It is a theoretical framework to understand the working mechanism of an organization.

It is an entity where all the elements necessary to carry out its functions.

A computer is the best example of showing the mechanism of system theory.

computer is a system which has many smaller sub-systems that have to work in coordinated manner.

These sub-systems are the processor, RAM, motherboard, hard drive and power supply.
