A compressor operating with 7.7 kg/s water vapour
with a compression ratio (P2/P1) equal to 3.0 is
cooled down by means of a cooling system which
extracts 74 kJ/kg of heat (per unit mass of fluid) from
the device. The steam enters the compressor as
saturated vapor at 1.5 MPa and leaves it at 773 K.
Calculate the power required if the compressor
operates with an efficiency of 0.94. Give your answer
in MW to 1 decimal place.
The compressors of a production facility maintain the compressed-air lines at a (gauge) pressure of 700 kPa at sea level where the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. The average temperature of air is 20°C at the compressor inlet and 24°C in the compressed-air lines. The facility operates 4200 hours a year, and the average price of electricity is $0.078/kWh. Taking the compressor efficiency to be 0.8, the motor efficiency to be 0.92, and the discharge coefficient to be 0.65, determine the energy and money saved per year by sealing a leak equivalent to a 3-mm-diameter hole on the compressed-air line.
5.
Consider a steam turbine in which the steam enters at
23.26 MPa and 808 K with a flow rate of 17.78 kg/s.
The steam exits at a pressure of 5.249 kPa with a
quality of 0.9566. Determine the power produced by
the turbine and the isentropic efficiency. Plot the
process on T-s coordinates. Show the steam dome.
in = 17.78 kg/9
P, = 23.26 MPa
T= 808 K
w, = ?
Xisen =?
P2-5.249 kPa
X2 = 0.9566
Create a graph of isentropic efficiency as a function of the exit
steam quality. The exit quality should range from isentropic
operation to the point where the steam exits as saturated vapor.
