Steam at 4 MPa and 350°C is expanded in an adiabatic turbine to 125kPa. What is the isentropic efficiency (percent) of this turb

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

$\eta_{turbine} = 0.603 = 60.3\%$

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 = $h_{g\ at\ 125KPa}$ = 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 $s_g$ and greater than $s_f$ at 125 KPa. Therefore, the steam is in a saturated mixture state. So:

$x = \frac{s_2-s_f}{s_{fg}} \\\\x = \frac{6.5843\ KJ/kg.K - 1.3741\ KJ/kg.K}{5.91\ KJ/kg.K}\\\\x = 0.88$

Now, we will find $h_{2s}$ (enthalpy at the outlet for the isentropic process):

$h_{2s} = h_{f\ at\ 125KPa}+xh_{fg\ at\ 125KPa}\\\\h_{2s} = 444.36\ KJ/kg + (0.88)(2240.6\ KJ/kg)\\h_{2s} = 2416.088\ KJ/kg$

Now, the isentropic efficiency of the turbine can be given as follows:

$\eta_{turbine} = \frac{h_1-h_2}{h_1-h_{2s}}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = \frac{3093.3\ KJ/kg-2684.9\ KJ/kg}{3093.3\ KJ/kg-2416.088\ KJ/kg}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = \frac{408.4\ KJ/kg}{677.212\ KJ/kg}\\\\\eta_{turbine} = 0.603 = 60.3\%$

Water flows steadily through the pipe as shown below, such that the pressure at section (1) and at section (2) are 300 kPa and 1

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The velocity at section is approximately 42.2 m/s

Explanation:

For the water flowing through the pipe, we have;

The pressure at section (1), P₁ = 300 kPa

The pressure at section (2), P₂ = 100 kPa

The diameter at section (1), D₁ = 0.1 m

The height of section (1) above section (2), D₂ = 50 m

The velocity at section (1), v₁ = 20 m/s

Let 'v₂' represent the velocity at section (2)

According to Bernoulli's equation, we have;

$z_1 + \dfrac{P_1}{\rho \cdot g} + \dfrac{v^2_1}{2 \cdot g} = z_2 + \dfrac{P_2}{\rho \cdot g} + \dfrac{v^2_2}{2 \cdot g}$

Where;

ρ = The density of water = 997 kg/m³

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

z₁ = 50 m

z₂ = The reference = 0 m

By plugging in the values, we have;

$50 \, m + \dfrac{300 \ kPa}{997 \, kg/m^3 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} + \dfrac{(20 \, m/s)^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} = \dfrac{100 \ kPa}{997 \, kg/m^3 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2} + \dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}$ 50 m + 30.704358 m + 20.4081633 m = 10.234786 m + $\dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}$

50 m + 30.704358 m + 20.4081633 m - 10.234786 m = $\dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}$

90.8777353 m = $\dfrac{v_2^2}{2 \times 9.8 \, m/s^2}$

v₂² = 2 × 9.8 m/s² × 90.8777353 m

v₂² = 1,781.20361 m²/s²

v₂ = √(1,781.20361 m²/s²) ≈ 42.204308 m/s

The velocity at section (2), v₂ ≈ 42.2 m/s

An irreversible heat pump and a Carnot heat pump operate between the same two thermal reservoirs. Which heat pump has higher COP

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Carnot heat pump

Explanation:

Carnot heat pump is an ideal heat pump in which all processes are reversible and that consume minimum amount of work to and produces maximum amount of heating effect compare to all real engine.And that is why COP of Carnot heat pump is more as compare to real heat pump.

All real heat pump are not perfectly reversible heat pump So this is also called irreversible heat pump .Due to irreversibility the COP of irreversible heat pump is always less than the COP of Carnot heat pump.

What is the De Broglie wavelength of an electron under 150 V acceleration?

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

0.1 nm

Explanation

Potential deference of the electron is given as V =150 V

Mass of electron $m=9.1\times 10^{-31}$

Let the velocity of electron = v

Charge on the electron $=1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

plank's constant h = $6.67\times 10^{-34}$

According to energy conservation $eV =\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2eV}{M}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 150}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}}=7.2627\times 10^{-6}m/sec$

Now we know that De Broglie wavelength $\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-34}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 7.2627\times10^6 }=0.100\times 10^{-9}m=0.1nm$

A long rod of 60-mm diameter and thermophysical properties rho= 8000 kg/m3, c= 500 J/kg·K, and k= 50 W/m·K is initially at a uni

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Tc = = 424.85 K

Explanation:

Data given:

D = 60 mm = 0.06 m

$\rho = 8000 kg/m^3$

k = 50 w/m . k

c = 500 j/kg.k

$h_{\infty} = 1000 w/m^2$

$t_{\infity} = 750 k$

$t_w = 500 K$

$surface area = As = \pi dL$

$\frac{As}{L} = \pi D = \pi \timeS 0.06$

HEAT FLOW Q is

$Q = h_{\infty} As (T_[\infty} - Tw)$

$= 1000 \pi\times 0.06 (750-500)$

= 47123.88 w per unit length of rod

volumetric heat rate

$q = \frac{Q}{LAs}$

$= \frac{47123.88}{\frac{\pi}{4} D^2 \times 1}$

$q = 1.66\times 10^{7} w/m^3$

$Tc = \frac{- qR^2}{4K} + Tw$

$= \frac{ - 1.67\times 10^7 \times (\frac{0.06}{2})^2}{4\times 56} + 500$

= 424.85 K
