Question: Problem 5 ( 1 0 points ) Air at a mass flow rate of 5 4 0 0 k g h and 3 2 5
Problem points
Air at a mass flow rate of and K enters a heater and leaves at K as shown in the figure below. This hot air then enters a turbine where it expands to generate kW of work. Assuming variable specific heats, calculate the following for the heaterturbine system:
a The heat supplied to the heater,
b The air temperature at the outlet of the turbine,
Now assume that the air at the outlet of the turbine is connected to an insulated air tank through a valve. Calculate the following for this modified system:
a The temperature of the air at state in the tank
b Discuss what happens to the temperature at state as the air in the tank is pressurized.
Hint: what is the difference between a moving and a stationary fluid?
