2- Products of combustion enter a gas turbine with a stagnation pressure of 0.75
MPa and a stagnation temperature of 690 °C, and they expand to a stagnation
pressure of 100 kPa. Taking cp = 1.157 kJ/kg.K, k = 1.33 and R = 0.287 kJ/kg-K for the
products of combustion, and assuming the expansion process to be isentropic,
determine the power output of the turbine per unit mass flow.
An ideal gas enters a turbine with a velocity of 40 m/s through an inlet pipe with a diameter
of 160 mm. The ideal gas enters the turbine at a temperature of 660°C and a pressure of
800 kPa. The ideal gas leaves the turbine with a velocity of 150 m/s through an outlet pipe
with a diameter of 100 mm. The power output from the turbine is 350 kW. The heat lost
from the turbine to the surrounding amounts to 6% of the power output from the turbine.
Changes in kinetic energy and potential energy can be neglected.
For the ideal gas, use R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K and c, = 1.11 kJ/kg.K|
i) Sketch the system/control volume for the above problem Show the
boundary/control surface and energy interactions clearly in the sketch.
11) Determine the mass flow rate of the ideal gas, kg/s.
i11) Determine the temperature of the ideal gas leaving the turbine, °C.
iv) Determine the pressure of the ideal gas leaving the turbine, kPa.
v) Suggest one way to increase the power output from the turbine.
Nitrogen is expanded isentropically in a nozzle from a pressure of 2000 kPa, at a
temperature of 1000 K, to a pressure of 101 kPa. If the velocity of the nitrogen entering the
nozzle is negligible, determine the exit nozzle area required for a nitrogen flow of 0.5 kg/s.
Assume the nitrogen to behave as a perfect gas with constant specific heats, mean molecular
mass of 28.0, and y 1.4.
