A heat engine constructed with one mole of an ideal monatomic gas operates on a reversible cycle a→b→c→d→a. The system goes from a→b in a isochoric process from Pa (pressure ) to Pb=4Pa. The system then expands in an isothermal process b→cf from Va to 2Va. A second isochoric process c→d takes the system to pressure back to Pa after which an isobaric process d→a return the system to its original state.

- A heat exchanger is a system used to transfer heat between two or more fluids. Consider the steady flow of a substance through a heat exchanger at atmospheric pressure and determine the exit temperature of the substance for the following processes. The constant-pressure heat capacities are well described by the following equation: Cp R = A + BT+ CT², T[=]K (1.1) 1.967, = where A = 1.924, B = 14.394 × 10-³ K-¹, and C = -4.392×10-6 K-2 for ethylene, and A B = 31.630 × 10-³ K-1, and C = -9.873x10-6 K-2 for 1-butene. (a) Ethylene at 200°C is fed at 10 mol/s into a heat exchanger that adds heat at a rate of 400 kW. Hint: To obtain a numerical solution, you may need to use a "solver" or an iterative method. (b) 1-butene at 260°C is fed at 15 mol/s into a heat exchanger that adds heat at a rate of 2000 kW. Now suppose you take the streams exiting from (a) and (b) and allow them to exchange heat between each other. Both streams exit at the same final temperature. (c) What is the exit…arrow_forward2. Nitrogen turbine. Nitrogen expands from 30 bar, 600°C to 12 bar in a turbine operating at steady-state. Assume nitrogen to be an ideal gas (C = 29 J/mol-K). a. Calculate the amount of work and the final temperature if expansion is reversible. b. Repeat the calculation if the efficiency of the turbine is 82% and report the lost work.arrow_forwardSteam at 10bar absolute with 190°C of superheat is fed to a turbine at a rate _ m 2000kg/h. The turbine operation is adiabatic, and the effluent is saturated steam at 1bar. Calculate the work output of the turbine in kilowatts, neglecting changes in kinetic and potential energy. Inlet Steam: Table B.7 indicates that steam at 10bar is saturated at 180°C(verify), so that the inlet steam temperature is 180°C +190°C =370°C. Interpolating in the same table, Hin(10 bar, 370°C) =3201kJ/kg Here are my questions: Where do you locate 180 degrees C and also locate 3201 KJ/kg at 10 bar, 370 degrees C? Use Table B.7arrow_forward
- A piston–cylinder device contains 0.05 kg of steam at 1 MPa and 300°C. Steam now expands to a final state of 200 kPa and 150°C, doing work. Heat losses from the system to the surroundings are estimated to be 2 kJ during this process. Assuming the surroundings to be at T0 = 25°C and P0 = 100 kPa, determine the exergy change of the steam.arrow_forwardMethane in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes an adiabatic compression from an initial state (0.5 bar, 0.05 m³/mol) to a final state (10 bar, 3×10-³ m³/mol).

Note that if ideal gas, the heat capacity of methane is given by Cp = 1.702 +9.081 × 10-³ T-2.164 x 10-6 T², where T is in K. Rarrow_forward
