Air at 101.325kPa and 25°C enters a compressor at low velocity, discharges at three times the initial pressure and then enters a nozzle in which it expands to a final velocity of 600 m-s1 at 101.325kPa and 25°C. If the work of compression is 240 kJ/kg of air, how much heat must be removed during compression?

Air enters the compressor of a gas turbine plant at ambient conditions of 100 kPa and 25 °Cwith a low velocity and exits at 1 MPa and 347 C with a velocity of 90 m/s. The compressionprocess is adiabatic, and the power input is 200. Determine the mass flowrateof the air through the compressor.
Saturates water vapor at 700 kPa is flowing in a pipe. Connected to this pipe through a valve is an evacuated tank. The valve is opened and the tank is filled with steam until the pressure is 700 KPa and then the valve is closed. The process takes place adiabatically and potential and kinetic energies are neglected. Determine the amount of entropy generated.

In a closed container of constant volume, there is initially 39 kg refrigerant at 50 ° C and 100 kPa pressure. Then the refrigerant is cooled until the pressure is 90kPa. Calculate the entropy change in the refrigerant during this process.
Water flows through a shower head steadily at a rate of 10 L/min. An electric resistance heater placed in the water pipe heats the water from 16 to 43°C. Taking the density of water to be 1 kg/L, determine the electric power input to the heater in kW and the rate of entropy generation during this process in kW/K.
(5) Helium gas is compressed by a compressor from 105 kPa and 18°C to 0.43 MPa and 160°C. The helium enters the compressor through a 450 cm² opening with a velocity of 35 m/s. It exits through a 120 cm² opening. Heat is lost at a rate of 12 kJ/kg during the compression process. Assume constant specific heats at 300K.
