Water vapor enters a turbine operating at steady state at 500°c, 3 bar, with a velocity of 200 m/s, and expands adiabatically to the exit, where it is saturated vapor at 1.0 bar, with a velocity of 150 m/s and a volumetric flow rate of 20 m3/s. find mass flow rate through the turbine. determine the power developed by the turbine, in kw. neglect potential energy changes, heat losses

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?

Coiled springs ought to be very strong and stiff. si3n4 is a strong, stiff material. would you select this material for a spring? explain.
