a) Illustrate the second-law of thermodynamics based on the Kelvin-Planck Statement.
Take the application of this law based on the operation of a refrigeration cycle.
Transcribed Image Text:a) Illustrate the second-law of thermodynamics based on the Kelvin-Planck Statement. Take the application of this law based on the operation of a refrigeration cycle.
c) In the operation of a steam turbine with a rated power output of 8 MW, superheated
steam is fed into the turbine steadily at a rate of 30,000 kg/h. The steam at turbine inlet
condition is at 10MPa and 600 °C. Some heat is gained during the process
(Tsurrounding = 25°C). The steam leaves the turbine as saturated vapor state and 100
kPa. Determine:
1)
11)
The amount of heat gained in kJ/s
The rate of entropy generation of this process in kW/K
