Let us return to the ideal Rankine cycle in problem 9.1. We will now investigate the improvements to that cycle by employing superheat and reheat. Superheated vapor enters the turbine at p1 = 14 MPa and T1 = 400◦C. Steam expands through the first stage turbine to p2 = 3 MPa, and is then reheated to T3 = 360◦C. The processes through both turbine stages and the pump can be treated as isentropic, and states 5 and 6 in this problem correspond to states 3 and 4, respectively, in problem 9.1. (a) Find the total heat transfer per unit mass to the working fluid, ˙q23 + ˙q61, in kJ/kg. (b) Compute the overall thermal efficiency η for the cycle.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
