During a steady flow process, the pressure of the working substance drops from 100 to 20 psia, the velocity increases from 200 to 1200 fps, the internal energy decreases 25 Btu/lb., and the volume increases from 1 to 6 cu.ft/lb. If the heat transferred is zero, what is the work of 1 lb. of the substance in Btu?
