Liquid water is throttled through avalve from500 kPa and 150oC to300 kPa. A flash chamber is used to separate the liquid from the vapor such that saturated liquid water exits from the bottom of the chamber at 300 kPa while saturated vapor exits from the top at the same pressure. The water vapor (steam) is then expanded in a turbine to a pressure of 10 KPa. The turbine has an isentropic efficiency of 90%. Calculate: (a) the rate of exergy destroyed in the valve and flash chamberper kg of water entering the flash chamber, and (b) the turbine exergetic efficiency.

Refrigerant-134a enters the compressor of a refrigerator as superheated vapor at 0.14 mpa and -10°c at a rate of 0.05 ka/s and leaves at 0.8 mpa and 50°c. the refrigerant is cooied in the condenser to 0.72 mpa and 26'c. it is then throttled to 0.15 mpa. sketch the t-s diagram for the system and evaluate: 6) the rate of heat removai from the refrigerated space (kw), it) the power input to the compressor (kw), ii) the isentropic efficiency of the compressor (%), and iv) the cop of the refrigerator.

An open feedwater heater operates at steady state with liquid entering at inlet 1 with t? = 40°c and pl = 1 .2 mpa. water vapor att2-200°c and p2 = 1.2 mpa enters at inlet 2. saturated liquid water exits with a pressure of pa 1.2 mpa. neglect heat transfer with the surroundings and all kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the mass flow rate of steam at inlet 2 if the mass flow rate of liquid water at inlet 1 is given as 2 kg/s.
