An adiabatic steam turbine inlet is to be 4 MPa. The outlet of the turbine is to operate at 0.01 MPa and provide saturated steam. The turbine has an efficiency of 85%. Determine the superheat which is required on the turbine inlet and the work produced by the turbine.

Ahouse has the following electrical appliance usage (1) single 40w lamp used for 4 hours per day (2) single 60w fan used for 12 hours per day (3) single 200w refrigerator that runs 24 hours per day with compressor run 12 hours and off 12 hours find the solar power inverter size in watt with correction factor of 1.25.

Asolid steel sphere (k=63.9 w m-1 k-1 , ? =7832 kg m-3 , c=0.523 kj kg-1 k-1 ), 100 mm in diameter is initially at a uniform temperature of 500o c and is suddenly quenched in a large oil bath for which t? = 100o c and h = 3200 w m-2 k-1. estimate the time required for the sphere to cool to 200o c and to 110o c

Aheat pump with refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to keep a space at 25°c by absorbing heat from geothermal water that enters the evaporator at 500c at a rate of 0.065 kg/s and leaves at 40°c. the refrigerant enters the evaporator at 20°c with a quality of 23 percent and leaves at the inlet pressure as saturated vapor. the refrigerant loses 300 w of heat to the surroundings as it flows through the compressor and the refrigerant leaves the compressor at 1.4 mpa at the same entropy as the inlet. determine: (a) the degrees of subcooling of the refrigerant in the condenser, b)-the mass flow rate of the refrigerant . (c) the heating load and the cop of the pump, and d)-the theoretical minimum power input to the compressor for the same heating load.
