Water enters the bottom of a hot water heater in a home at a velocity of 1.25 ft/s, a temperature of 60°F, and a pressure of 45 psia. The fluid exits at a velocity of 1.00 ft/s, a temperature of 130°F., a pressure of 43 psia, and a height 5 ft higher than the entrance. Assuming no heat is wasted, determine the minimum amount of energy required in Btu/lbm. (Note 778 ft lb= 1 Btu)

In a steady flow apparatus, 135 kJ of work is done by each kg fluid. The specific volume of the fluid, pressure, and speed at the inlet are 0.37 m^3/kg, 600 kPa, and 16 m/s. The inlet is 32 m above the floor, and the discharge pipe is at the floor level. The discharge conditions are 0.62 m^3/kg, 100 kPa, and 270 m/s.

Air flows steadily at the rate of 0.5 kg/s through an compressor, entering at 7 m/sspeed, 100 kPa pressure and 0.95 m3/kg specific volume, and leaving at 5 m/s, 700kPa, and 0.19 m3/kg. The internal energy of the air leaving is 90 kJ/kg greater thanthat of the air entering. Cooling water in the compressor jackets absorbs heat fromthe air at the rate of 58kW. Compute the compressor work in kW.
