An isothermal compression process is used in air flowing at 10 kg mol/s at 28°C and 25 psia to 75 psia. Determine the power (in MW) required if the mechanical efficiency is 60% and Cp/Cv = 1.4.

NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. An adiabatic air compressor compresses 10.4 L/s of air at 120 kPa and 20°C to 1000 kPa and 300°C. The constant pressure specific heat of air at the average temperature of 160°C = 433 K is cp= 1.018 kJ/kg.K. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa.m³/kg-K. 1 MPa 300°C Compressor 120 kPa 20°C Vus Determine the work required by the compressor. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.) The work required by the compressor is -4.578 kJ/kg.

Refrigerant-134a (R-134a) enters the expansion valve of a refrigeration system at 650 kPa with a quality of 20%. The pressure of R-134a at the outlet is 200 kPa. a)Determine the temperature of R-134a at the outlet in oC. Calculate the difference of internal energy between the outlet and inlet in kJ/kg

Question 6 Steam flows steadily through an adiabatic turbine. The inlet conditions of the steam are 10 MPa, 450°C, and 80 m/s, and the exit conditions are 10 kPa, 92 percent quality, and 50 m/s. The mass flow rate of the steam is 12 kg/s. Determine (a) the change in kinetic energy (b) the power output, (c) the turbine inlet area. Answers: (a)-1.95 kJ/kg, (b) 10.2 MW, (c) 0.00447 m² P-10 MPa 7₁-450°C V₁ = 80 m/s STEAM m = 12 kg/s P₂ = 10 kPa 4,-0.92 V₂ = 50 m/s out
