Work and Heat Transfer

It is generally related to thermal engineering which tells about the use, creation, conversion and transfer of heat energy between the systems. It is also considered that to transfer heat from one source to another, transfer of masses is also required. There are various mechanisms by which, transfer of heat takes place i.e. thermal conduction, convection, radiation or by change of phase. All these mechanisms have their own specific features which sometimes occur simultaneously within the same system.

1. Is it Worth IT? I am considering purchasing a cover for my swimming pool. I have estimated that my pool loses 1.5 in of water off of its 1200 ft² surface each week due to evaporation. The cost of energy to heat the pool averages about $10.00 per million Btu. Interestingly, the salesperson at the pool store claims that a $500 pool cover will reduce evaporative losses by two-thirds and, as such, will pay for itself in one 15-week swimming season. Is it worth it for me to purchase this pool cover? You can assume that the heat of vaporization for water at my pool's average temperature equals 1050 Btu/lb.
Steam generators are a type of heat exchanges that are used in power plants to generate steam at desired pressure and temperature (Fig. Q1.b). In a steam generator, saturated liquid water at 30°C enters a 60-mm diameter tube at the volume flow rate of 12 L/s. After exchanging heat with hot gas, the water changes to steam and leaves the generator at a pressure of 9 MPa and a temperature of 400°C. During this process, the diameter of the water/steam tube does not change.(iii) What is the exit velocity of the steam?
