An adiabatic turbine receives steam from two boilers. One boiler
provides 10 kg/s at 5 MPa, 600C and the other provides 20 kg/s
at 800 kPa, 500C. The steam exits the turbine at a pressure of
100 kPa, with a quality of 90%. Find the final temperature and
the produced power.
A turbine takes in 2 kg/s neon at 27C and 200 kPa with
negligible velocity. The produced work is 75 kW and 30 kW of heat
leaks into the turbine from the surroundings. The neon exits at 100
kPa and 230 K. Find the exit velocity of the neon.
Engine coolant (glycerine) enters the radiator of your car with
a temperature of 100C and exits it at 50C. If the coolant
must remove 30 kW of heat, what must be its mass flow rate through
the radiator? If the heat is carried off by ambient air at about
one atmosphere that has a temperature of 15 degrees before flowing
through the radiator and 35 degrees after it, what is the volume
flow of the air?
An adiabatic mixing chamber takes in two streams of water both
at the ambient pressure of 100 kPa. On stream is 2 kg/s water at
50C, and the other is water at 200C. Pressure losses in the
mixing chamber can be ignored, and the water comes out as saturated
liquid. What is the mass flow rate of the incoming stream at 200C?
