Steady-state operating data are provided for a compressor and heat exchanger in the figure below. The power input to the compressor is 50 kW. As shown in the figure, nitrogen (N2) flows through the compressor and heat exchanger with mass flow rate of 0.25 kg/s. The nitrogen is modeled as an ideal gas.

Thermodynamics fill in the blank: 1) Among the principal irreversiblilities of a gas turbine power plant, the most significant source of irreversibility by far is ______________. 2) Cooling a gas as it is compressed would reduce the work input required during compression, but achieving a heat transfer rate high enough to effect a significant reduction in work is difficult to achieve in practice. A practical alternative is to introduce multiple stages of compression with heat exchangers called _______________ between the stages.

An air-cooled condenser has an h value of 30 W/m2-K based on the air-side area. The air-side heat transfer area is 190 m2 with air entering at 27°C and leaving at 40°C. If the condensing temperature is constant at 49°C, what is the air mass flow rate in kg/s? Let Cp(air) = 1.006 kJ/kg-K. Draw and label the temperature-flow diagram. Round off your answer to three (3) decimal places.
The figure belows shows three components of an air-conditioning system, where 105°F and 4.5 lb/s. Refrigerant 134a flows through a throttling valve and a heat exchanger while air flows through a fan and the same heat exchanger. Data for steady-state operation are given on the figure. There is no significant heat transfer between any of the components and the surroundings. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Modeling air as an ideal gas with constant cp = 0.240 Btu/lb · °R, determine the mass flow rate of the air, in lb/s.
In an heat exchanger of parallel flow type, water enters at 60°C and leaves at 80°C while oil of specific gravity 0.8 enters at 250°C and leaves at 100°C. The specific heat of oil is 2.5 kJ/kg K and surrounding temperature is 300 K. Determine the loss in availability on the basis of one kg of oil flow per second.
(Thermodynamics) A steady-flow system operating on the ideal Ericsson cycle can achieve the Carnot efficiency. One of the salient features of this cycle is the isothermal expansion through a heated turbine, as shown in Fig. a. Heat is added to the turbine such that the outlet temperature is equal to the inlet temperature, i.e. T₁=T₂, and the overall pressure ratio for this process is rₚ=P₁/P₂. However, an isothermal expansion through a heated turbine is very difficult to achieve in practical engineering applications. An alternate approach is two use a multi-stage expansion process with reheating. In this approach, the gas expansion process is carried out in multiple stages with reheating in between each stage. Consider the two-stage turbine expansion with reheating shown in Fig. b. The gas enters the first stage of the turbine at state A1, is expanded isentropically to an intermediate pressure Pₐ₂, is reheated at constant pressure to state B1, and is expanded in the second stage…
A heat exchanger is used to heat 36 kg/hr of air originally at standard conditions (25 °C and 1 atm) to 125 °C using steam originally at 10 bar and 300 °C. Assume both streams maintain constant pressure and air to be an ideal gas with constant cp = 1.005 kJ/kg·K. No heat is lostto the surroundings. Calculate: The minimum flow rate of the steam in kg/hr?
In a heat exchanger, the heat transfer depends on the choice of the control volume
