An industrial process discharges 75.3 kg/s of gaseous combustion products at 204°C, 100 kPa (properties at state 1). As shown in the figure, a proposed system for utilizing the combustion products combines a heat-recovery steam generator with a well-insulated turbine. At steady state, combustion products exit the steam generator at 130°C, 100 kPa, and a separate stream of water enters at 350 kPa, 46°C with a mass flow rate of 150 kg/min. At the exit of the turbine, the pressure is 7.5 kPa and the quality is 88%. Heat is lost from the steam generator at a rate of 93600 kJ/h. The changes in kinetic and potential energies of the flowing streams can be ignored as can the pressure drop for the water flowing through the steam generator. The combustion products can be modeled as air acting as an ideal gas with constant specific heats of Cv= 0.718 kJ/kg-K and Cp=1.005 kJ/kg-K. Use Rair = 0.287 kJ/kg-K. Also, for the compressed liquid, assume the substance is a saturated liquid at the given…

R-22 exiting (2) the compressor enters a heat exchanger where energy transfer to air as a separate stream occurs and the refrigerant exits (3) as a liquid at 13.5bar, 32C. Air enters (4) the condenser at 27C, 1.0bar with a volumetric flow rate of 21.2m3/min and exits (5) at 43C. Assuming ideal gas behavior for the air and stray heat transfer and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible, determine the compressor power

A well insulated turbine operates at steady state. Steam enters the turbine at 4 MPa with a specific enthalpy of 3015.4 kJ/kg and a velocity of 10 m/s. The steam expands to the turbine exit where the pressure is 0.07 MPa, specific enthalpy is 2431.7 kJ/kg, and the velocity is 90 m/s. The mass flow rate is 11.95 kg/s. Neglecting potential energy effects, determine the power developed by the turbine, in kW.
In a steady-state operating power plant, saturated liquid H2O at 122 deg C is fed to a boiler at 3.756 m/s through a pipe (0.03 m diameter). It leaves the boiler at 9 bar and 88.7 m/s. Then, it enters the turbine through a constant 0.13 m diameter pipe. The exit pipe of the turbine is 0.3 m in diameter and T = 310ºC while P = 1.37 bar. If 2.5 kg/s water is fed and there is change in KE, prove that the fluid enters the turbine at 637.06 deg C.
A well-insulated turbine operating at steady state develops 29.7 MW of power for a steam flowrate of 45 kg/s.
