Water steam enters a turbine at a temperature of 400 o C and a pressure of 3 MPa. Water saturated vapor exhausts from the turbine at a pressure of 125 kPa. At steady state, the work output of the turbine is 530 kJ/kg. The surrounding air is at 20 o C. Neglect the changes in kinetic energy and potential energy. Determine (20 points) (a) the heat transfer from the turbine to the surroundings per unit mass flow rate, (b) the entropy generation during this process.

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?

Coiled springs ought to be very strong and stiff. si3n4 is a strong, stiff material. would you select this material for a spring? explain.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
