A stream of methane(CH4, Cp=4R) flowing at 3.0 kmol/min is isobarically heated in a well‑insulated heat exchanger from 30.00 ∘C to 1.50×102 ∘C. The second side of the exchanger is fed with saturated water vapor, which is isobarically cooled to a saturated liquid when it leaves. As unit operator, you have the choice of feeding high‑pressure steam (HPS) at 4.00 MPa or medium pressure steam (MPS) at 1.00 MPa. Assume Tsurr=27 ∘C. Find the mass flow rate of water and lost work if high pressure steam (HPS) is used. Find the mass flow rate of water and lost work if medium pressure steam (MPS) is used. Which is the better choice of steam to use?

A Carnot refrigeration cycle is used as a reference to estimate the energy needed in an attempt to reduce the temperature of a laboratory sample to absolute zero. Suppose you want to remove 0.01 J of energy from the sample that is at 2x10-6K. If the high temperature is 20°C, the heat required is 982.05x10-5J. Analyzing these considerations, calculate the increase in laboratory entropy and the decrease in entropy in the sample.
A steady-state gas turbine is using air as the working fluid has shaft power output of 55 MW. Air enters the turbine at 300 K and leaves at 600 K and 30 m/s. The air is first compressed by adding a compression power of 15 MW. Then air receives 173 MW as heat input from the combustor. Determine the mass flow rate of air in kg/s.
Q5/ For a steam power plant, the turbine operates isentropically and adiabatically with inlet steam at 6800 kPa and 550 °C and the exhaust steam enters the condenser at 50 °C. Saturated liquid water leaves the condenser, and is pumped to the boiler. Neglecting pump work and kinetic and potential energy changes, determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle?

Air enters the compressor of a Brayton refrigeration cycle at 100 kPa, 260 K, and is compressed adiabatically to 300 kPa. Air enters the turbine at 300 kPa, 300 K, and expands adiabatically to 100 kPa. For the cycle, assuming the compressor and turbine isentropic efficiencies are both 100%, determine: (a) The net work per unit mass of air flow [15 kJ/kg] (b) The coefficient of performance [2.7]

Consider the conditions of Problem 1, homework 5 (it is repeated below) and that the surroundings are at a temperature of 4 C. Instead of mixing the two fluids together consider the following proposal. Heat is allowed to flow from the 3 Kg mass of water through a Carnot heat engine and is rejected to the cooler mass which acts as the low temperature thermal reservoir. Determine the maximum amount of work that could be performed by the heat engine, the entropy produced, and the exergy destroyed in the 3 Kg mass during this operation. Also, determine the total entropy produced and exergy destroyed in the total system. In this case the temperature and internal energy of the mass of water is changing unlike the infinite heat reservoir case. Since the temperature of both the high temperature and low temperature heat input is changing, the Carnot efficiency is also changing. This problem should be solved using a numerical technique that you write using either excel or Matlab. In…
