1- Suppose you are operating a steam turbine where the steam leaving the tUPBIHe 1S at 5 bar. This steam contains 95 wt% vapors. If the shaft work produced by the turbine is 1100 kJ/kg and the high pressure, high temperature steam enters the turbine at 100 bar (abs), what is the temperature of the steam entering the turbine? If water at 10°C is supplied to the steam boiler to generate steam, how much heat is required per kilogram of steam produced? You may assume that heat losses from the turbine are negligible.

1 kg of steam at initial conditions of 5.1 MPa and 370 °C expands in a turbine until it becomes saturated. It is withdrawn and reheated to 340°C. After further expansion in the turbine to 160 , part of the steam is extracted for feedwater heating. The remaining steam expands to the condenser pressure of 0.018 MPa. find Wnet, Ec, Ee and the ideal steam rate. Remember, 1. For values taken from the steam tables: Use them as is, do not round off. 2. For values obtained by interpolation and final answers obtained by solving, use FOUR (4) decimal places. 3.

An art school specializes in metal sculptures and to save money and space they don't have a metal workshop with traditional power tools and cutting torches. To make the sculptures the students gather scrap metal and use a specialized steamer that heats the already thin metal enough to easily bend and can be used inside around other flammable materials as it is steam powered. The steamer creates the steam and then heats it through a funnel from 100 to 450 °C. Use steam tables to find what the heat input in Watts (W) of the funnel is if a continuous stream of steam at a rate of 50 kg/s undergoes the heating process at a constant pressure. Assumption: We are assuming that the P(bar) of saturation is at 0.1 for our steam tables
