Carbon dioxide (CO2) at 1 bar, 300 K enters a compressor operating at steady state and is compressed adiabatically to an exit state of 10 bar, 600 K. The CO2 is modeled as an ideal gas, and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. For the compressor, determine: (a) the work input, in kJ per kg of CO, flowing, (b) the rate of entropy production, in kJ/K per kg of CO2 flowing, and (c) the percent isentropic compressor efficiency.

Refrigerant 134a enters an air conditioner compressor at 4 bar, 20°C, and is compressed at steady state to 12 bar, 80°C. The volumetric flow rate of the refrigerant entering is 4.5 m³/min. The work input to the compressor is 72 kJ per kg of refrigerant flowing. Neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the magnitude of the heat transfer rate from the compressor, in kW. Q cv = 36.607 x KW

for steam, the specific ideal gas constant = 461.5 J/kg K A closed system is comprised of pure water substance initially at a temperature of 500 oC and a pressure of 20 MPa (state 1). The system undergoes an isochoric process whereby its pressure drops to 0.1 Mpa (state 2). Sketch the process on a Temperature-specific entropy plot, showing the lines of constant pressure which pass through steps 1 and 2.

Air enters a compressor operating at steady state at 1.05 bar, 300 K, with a volumetric flow rate of 39 m³/min and exits at 12 bar, 400 K. Heat transfer occurs at a rate of 6.5 kW from the compressor to its surroundings. Assuming the ideal gas model for air and neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the power input, in kW.

Figure shows data for a portion of the ducting in ventilation system operating at steady state. The ducts are well insulated and the pressure is very nearly 1 bar throughout. Assuming the ideal gas model for air with Cp  = 1 kJ/kg · K. and ignoring kinetic and potential energy effects, determine: (a) the temperature of the air at the exit, in °C. (b) the exit diameter, in m. (c) the rate of entropy production within the duct, in kJ/min.

Saturated water vapor at 300°F enters a compressor operating at steady state with a mass flow rate of 5 lb/s and is compressed adiabatically to 800 lbf/in.² If the power input is 2150 hp, determine for the compressor: (a) the percent isentropic compressor efficiency and (b) the rate of entropy production, in hp/°R. Ignore kinetic and potential energy effects.
