A steam turbine receives steam at 1.5MPa and 220oC, and exhausts at 50kPa, 0.75 dry. Neglecting heat losses and changes in kinetic and potential energy, estimate the work output per kg steam. If when allowance is made for friction, radiation and leakages losses, the actual work of that estimated in (a), calculate the power output of the turbine when consuming 600kg of steam per minute.

Slip occurs via two partial dislocations because of (a) the shorter path of the partial dislocation lines; (b) the lower energy state through partial dislocations; (c) the charge balance.

Aheavily insulated piston-cylinder device contains 0.02 m3 of steam at 300 kpa and 200 °c. 1.2 mpa. d this process. team is now compressed in a reversible manner to a pressure of etermine the entropy change and the work done on the steam during this process

Air inially occupying a volume of 1 m2 at 100 kpa, 27 c undergoes three internally reversible processes in series. process 1-2 compression to 500 kpa during which pv constant process 2-3 adiabatic expanslon to 100 kpa process 3-1: constant-pressure expansion to 100 kpa (a) calculate the change of entropy for each of the three processes. (b) calculate the heat and work involved in each process. (c) is this cycle a power cycle or refrigeration cycle?
