Problem #1: (50 pts.)
Sixteen (24m3min) of superheated steam enter a well-insulated turbine operating at steady state at 8.0 MPa and a Temperature of 550C(Celsius). The steam expands to the turbine exit where the pressure is 200 KPa . If the Turbine has an adiabatic efficiency of 88%, Determine:
a) The ideal power developed by the turbine and the corresponding exit temperature.
b) The real power developed by the turbine and the corresponding exit temperature.
c) The entropy change, for the process when it is irreversible.
d) Sketch the ideal and real processes in a P-v diagram.
e) Sketch the ideal and real processes in a T-s diagram
Problem #2: (50 pts.)
Five (5) kilograms of air R=0.286KJKgK, are contained in a piston-cylinder device with an initial volume of 0.82m3 and a pressure of 15 bar . The piston is then allowed to move until the pressure is reduced to 3 bar in a reversible process. Determine:
a) The temperature of the final state in Kelvin and the work in KJ if the process is considered adiabatic.
b) The entropy changes in KJK if heat losses during the process cause the final temperature to reach 650 K .
c) Sketch the adiabatic and heat loss processes in a P-v diagram.
d) Sketch the adiabatic and heat loss processes in a T-s diagram.
