Question: Problem Two [ 2 5 ( 1 0 - 1 5 ) ] w B e e = w c c t = Hact A

Problem Two [25(10-15)]
wBee=wcct= Hact
A gas at T1=400K and P1=15 bar is expanded through an adiabatic, steady-state turbine to P2=
8 bar and T2=300K. Given for the gas:
H1R=-500J*mole-1;,S1R=-5J*T-1*mole-1;,H2R=0;S2R=0;,Cpig=30J*mole-1.
a) Find the actual work delivered by the turbine, (Wa). Hint: neglecting kinetic and potential
energy, the first law reduces to W=H for
b) If the turbine were reversible in addition to being adiabatic (i.e., isentropic), what would be the
delivered work (Wisen), and hence what is the turbine efficiency ()? Hint: find first the exit
temperature (T2) that would be obtained if the turbine were isentropic?
