A boiler is designed to work at 14bar and evaporate 8 kg/s of water. The inlet water to the boiler has a temperature of 400C and at exit the steam is 0.95 dry. The flow velocity at inlet is 10 m/s and at exit 5 m/s and the exit is % m above the elevation at entrance. Determine the quantity of heat required. What is the significance of changes in kinetic and potential energy on the result.

Air undergoes a constant pressure cooling process with no moisture added or removed. the air originally exists at 45 °c, 150 kpa and 35 % relative humidity. it is cooled until the temperature reaches 29 oc. determine (a) the relative humidity of the cooled air. (b) the dew point temperature of the cooled air in °c. (c) the heat removed during the cooling process in kj/kg. use the psychrometric chart to check your answers (this part will not be graded; however, it will you get comfortable using the psychrometric chart)
