A certain Geothermal Power Plant shows that 1,700,000 kg/hr of pressurized ground water is available at 17.5MPa and 330°C. The water will be throttled to a pressure of 1.7MPa to produce wet steam and this mixture will be passed through a water separator to remove the water droplets so that saturated steam at 1.7MPa is available at the entrance of the Turbine. Other data are as follows: Discharge Pressure of turbine = 85kPa-Vac; Turbine Efficiency = 73%. Mechanical Loss = 2% of shaft power. Generator Efficiency = 95%.

Air with mass flow rate of 1 kg/s enters the first stage of a compressor at 100 kPa and 300 K and exit the second stage of the compressor at 2677 kPa. If the compressed air outgoing from the first stage of the compressor passes through an intercooler, then enters the second stage of the compressor at temperature 353 K. What is the indicated isothermal efficiency for the compressor assuming ideal compression process with polytropica index n = 1.3 for both stages, no pressure loss in the intercooler, and the pressure ratio across the first and the second stage of the compressor are equal?

An aircraft is flying at a cruising speed of 250 m/s at an altitude of 5000 m where the atmospheric pressure is 54.05 kPa and the ambient air temperature is 255.7 K. The ambient air is first decelerated in a diffuser before it enters the compressor. Approximating both the diffuser and the compressor to be isentropic, determine (a) the stagnation pressure at the compressor inlet and (b) the required compressor work per unit mass if the stagnation pressure ratio of the compressor is 8.
