Gliquid water is fed to a boiler at 24°c and 10 bar and is converted at constant pressure to saturated steam. 1. use the steam tables to calculate δh (in kj/kg) for this process. 2. calculate the heat input required to produce 15,000 m 3 /h of steam at the exiting conditions. assume that the kinetic energy of the entering liquid is negligible and that the steam is discharged through a 15-cm id pipe.

1)2676.5kJ/KG

2)57.87MW

Hello!

To solve this problem use the following steps

1. We will call state 1 at the entrance of the boiler and 2 at the exit.

2. use thermodynamic tables to find enthalpy enthalpies in states 1 and 2, and density in the state 2

note:Through laboratory tests, thermodynamic tables were developed, these allow to know all the thermodynamic properties of a substance (entropy, enthalpy, pressure, specific volume, internal energy etc ..)  

through prior knowledge of two other properties such as pressure and temperature.  

h1=Enthalpy(Water;T=24C;P=1000kPa) =101.5kJ/kg

h2=Enthalpy(Water;x=1(quality);P=1000kPa)=2778kJ/kg

density2(Water;x=1(quality);P=1000kPa)=5.144Kg/m^3

3.find the difference between the two enthalpies to know ΔH (in kJ/kg)

ΔH=h2-h1=2778-101.5=2676.5kJ/KG

4. Find the mass flow by multiplying the volumetric flow in state 2 and the density in state 2

m=mass flow=(5.144kg/m^3)(15,000 m 3 /h)=77160kg/h=21.4kg/s

5.Find the flow rate by dividing the volumetric flow (15000m ^ 3 / h = 4.167m ^ 3 / s) between the cross-sectional area of the pipe

6. use the first law of thermodynamics in the boiler, it is established that the energy that enters a system is the same that must leave, take into account flow energies, kinetic energy and added heat

mh1+Q=mh2+0.5mV^2

solving for Q

Q=m(h2-h1)+0.5mV^2

Q=21.4(2778000-101500)+0.5(21.4)(235.789)^2=57871982w=57.87Mw
