- Ten grams of computer chips with a specific heat of 0.3 kJ/kg·K are initially at 20°C. These chips are cooled by placement in 5 grams of saturated liquid R-134a at –40°C. Presuming that the pressure remains constant while the chips are being cooled, determine the entropy change of the R-134a.arrow_forwardAir is expanded in an adiabatic turbine of 85 percent isentropic efficiency from an inlet state of 2200 kPa and 300C to an outlet pressure of 200 kPa. Calculate the outlet temperature of air and the work produced by this turbine per unit mass of air.arrow_forwardSteam enters an adiabatic turbine steadily at 7 MPa, 500°C, and 45 m/s and leaves at 100 kPa and 75 m/s. If the power output of the turbine is 5 MW and the isentropic efficiency is 77 percent, determine the temperature at the turbine exit.arrow_forward
