Chapter 5.5, Problem 28P
The diffuser in a jet engine is designed to decrease the kinetic energy of the air entering the engine compressor without any work or heat interactions. Calculate the velocity at the exit of a diffuser when air at 100 kPa and 30°C enters it with a velocity of 350 m/s and the exit state is 200 kPa and 90°C.

- 2. 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.

It then undergoes an isobaric process until the enthalpy becomes 2500 kJ/kg. The process is then followed by an isometric compression until the pressure reaches 900 kPa. Finally, the refrigerant undergoes an isothermal process until it becomes saturated liquid. Assume the system to be adiabatic and neglect all changes in kinetic and potential energies. Analyze the temperature, pressure, specific volume, quality (if any) and phase state for each stage of the processes.

- A device submitted to the Pa- tent Office is shown schemati- cally in the figure to the right. Its inventor claims that it can generate 10 kW of electrical power continuously, using only 0.03 kg/s of low-pressure (2 bar) saturated steam, which exits as a mixture of liquid and gas also at 2 bar. A stream of cooling water (0.3 kg/s, liquid at 1 bar) is used in the device; the patent application lists its entrance and exit temperatures as 20 °C and 40 °C, respectively. The de- vice does not have any other heat or material exchanges with the environ- ment.
