At steady state, 100 m^3/min of dry air at 32 C, 1 bar is mixed adiabatically with a stream of oxygen at 127 C, 1 bar to form a mixed stream at 47 C, 1 bar. Kinetic and potential energy effects can be ignored.
Find:
(a) the mass flow rates of the dry air and the oxygen
(b) the mole fractions of the dry air and oxygen in the exiting mixture
(c) the time rate of entropy production

1. Air enters a steady-state diffuser at T1 = 20 °C, P1 = 100
kPa
and leaves at P2 = 105 kPa. You may assume an adiabatic
diffuser and constant specific heats. Find T2 if:
a) V1 = 10 m/s, V2 = 0 m/s
b) V1 = 100 m/s, V2 = 90 m/s
c) V1 = 500 m/s, V2 = 490 m/s
d) V1 = 1000 m/s, V2 = 990 m/s

A compressor, operating at steady-state, increases the pressure
of an air stream from 1 bar to 10 bar while losing 4.2 kW of heat
to the surroundings. At the compressor inlet, the air is at 25o C
and has a velocity of 14 m/s. At the compressor outlet, the air is
at 350o C and has a velocity of 2.4 m/s. If the compressor inlet
has a cross-sectional area of 500 cm2 and the air behaves as an
ideal gas,...

A window-mounted air conditioner supplies 19 m3/min of air at
15°C, 1 bar to a room. Air returns from the room to the evaporator
of the unit at 22°C. The air conditioner operates at steady state

refrigerant at 11.5 bar leaves the condenser. The compressor has an
isentropic efficiency of 70%, and refrigerant exits the compressor

A window-mounted air conditioner supplies 29 m3/min
of air at 15°C, 1 bar to a room. Air returns from the room to the
evaporator of the unit at 22°C. The air conditioner operates at

Refrigerant 22 entering the compressor at 4 bar, 10°C. Saturated
liquid refrigerant at 9 bar leaves the condenser. The compressor
has an isentropic efficiency of 70%, and refrigerant exits the
compressor at 9 bar.

Air enters a compressor operating at steady state at 1.05 bar,
300 K, with a volumetric flow rate of 48 m3/min and
exits at 12 bar, 400 K. Heat transfer occurs at a rate of 8 kW from
the compressor to its surroundings.

theoretical work that could be developed by the turbine in kJ per
kg of air flow?
