1 kg / s of steam is compressed in an adiabatic compressor from
200 kPa and 200 ° C to 3000 kPa and 400 ° C. How powerful is the
compressor? is this transformation possible (briefly argue)?
Steam at 10 bar and 330°C is fed to an adiabatic turbine at a
mass flow rate of m = 5 kg/s. The output stream is saturated steam

through a 15 cm diameter pipe and the exit steam discharges
through a 20 cm diameter pipe.
a) Calculate the velocity of the input and output streams in
m/s.

air is compressed in an adiabatic and isentropic compressor from
14 psia and 60F to 210 psia. Determine the outlet temperature [F]
and the work consumed by this compressor per unit mas of air
[Btu/lbm]. Assume constant specific heats at T=100F

Refrigerant 134a enters an air conditioner compressor at 4 bar,
20°C, and is compressed at steady state to 12 bar, 80°C. The
volumetric flow rate of the refrigerant entering is 7.5 m3/min. The
work input to the compressor is 112.5 kJ per kg of refrigerant
flowing. Neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine
the magnitude of the heat transfer rate from the compressor, in
kW.
Steam at 400°C and 40 bar flows steadily through an adiabatic
turbine at a volumetric
flowrate of 5,000 m3/h. The steam leaving the turbine at 1 bar is
then cooled at constant
pressure in a condenser to 25°C. The rate of transfer from the
condenser is 50 MW.
Calculate the power output generated by the turbine (MW). Clearly
state assumptions (if
any) and reference state.
Refrigerant-134a enters an adiabatic compressor as saturated

R-134a.

If the steam is now expanded from 10 bar and 500 degree Celsius
to 0.04 bar with isentropic efficiency of 90%, in what respects
does the ideal gas assumption become invalid. Compare the ideal gas

output
Steam, initially at 15 bar and 250oC and stored in a rigid
container, is reversibly compressed at constant temperature. During
