Chapter 7.13, Problem 107P
Consider a steam power plant that operates between the pressure limits of 5 MPa and 10 kPa. Steam enters the pump as saturated liquid and leaves the turbine as saturated vapor. Determine the ratio of the work delivered by the turbine to the work consumed by the pump. Assume the entire cycle to be reversible and the heat losses from the pump and the turbine to be negligible.

An adiabatic pump is to be used to compress saturated liquid water at
10 kPa to a pressure to 15 MPa in a reversible manner. If the volume flow rate of the water
flowing into the pump inlet is V = 0.001 m³/s, determine,
(a) the power input to the pump, and
(b) the temperature of the water at the outlet of the pump.

Figure P2 Schematic for Problem 2
Steam in an adiabatic turbine expands at a pressure of 6 MPa and a temperature of 450 ° C to a pressure of 0.1 MPa with a flow rate of 6 kg / s. If steam leaves the turbine as saturated steam, what will the power output of the turbine be?
The compressors of a production facility maintain the compressed-air lines at a (gauge) pressure of 700 kPa at sea level where the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. The average temperature of air is 20°C at the compressor inlet and 24°C in the compressed-air lines. The facility operates 4200 hours a year, and the average price of electricity is $0.078/kWh. Taking the compressor efficiency to be 0.8, the motor efficiency to be 0.92, and the discharge coefficient to be 0.65, determine the energy and money saved per year by sealing a leak equivalent to a 3-mm-diameter hole on the compressed-air line.

- Let's assume that we generate electrical energy by means of a turbine generator. Before the steam enters a reversible adiabatic turbine, it must be raised to 10000 kPa pressure and 450 ºC. As the steam leaves the turbine, its pressure drops to 150 kPa and a temperature of 100 C. The flow of steam in the turbine is 57 kg / s. In the meantime, your ambient temperature was measured as 25 ºC and pressure as 100 kPa. Considering these conditions, how much exergy does the steam have when entering and leaving the turbine? How much power does the turbine generate? How much power can be produced from this turbine and what is the second-law efficiency of this turbine?

Thanks to the heat given to the boiler, the saturated liquid water entering the boiler at 300 kPa pressure leaves the boiler as saturated steam at 300 kPa (3bar) pressure. Since the performance of the heat pump (y = COPe) is equal to 0.5 times the performance of the Carnot heat pump operating under the same temperature conditions, find the mass flow rate (kg / s) of the water flowing from the boiler.
