Writhe the full solution using thermodynamics equation. Steam at 14 bar & 315 C [state 1] enters a turbine through a 75 mm diameter pipe with a velocity of 3 m/s. The exhaust from the turbine is carried through a 250 mm diameter pipe and is at 0.35 bar & 105 C [state 2]. What is the power output of the turbine in watts? HInt: Use the steam table to obtain the thermodynamics property of the steam at the specified conditions.
A gas power cycle uses air as the working fluid and has two turbine sections as shown in the figure below. The power produced by Turbine 1 is used to drive the compressor, and Turbine 2 produces output power W. Air enters the compressor with a temperature of 290 K and a mass flow rate of m = 2 [kg/s] (State 1); the air exits the compressor at 445K (State 2). Heat is transferred from a high- temperature thermal reservoir, T = 1400 [K], to Heat Exchanger 1 at a rate Q,. The temperature of the air is raised to 1100 [K] (State 3) as it flows through Heat Exchanger 1. The air enters Turbine 1 where it is expanded to State 4. The flow then proceeds to Turbine 2 and exits with a temperature of 500 [K] (State 5). Heat is then removed from the air through Heat Exchanger 2 at a rate Q, which is rejected to the low-temperature thermal reservoir, Ti = 200 [K]. (a) Determine the temperature at the inlet to Turbine 2, T4. (b) Calculate the power output from Turbine 2, W. (c) Calculate the rate of…

Please provide equations that you are using so I can follow along and learn how to do this and include conversions and units. In Jamestown, NY, a coal power plan consumes coal at a rate of 80 tons/hr. When coal burns, it generates approximately 30,000 kJ for every kg of coal burned. The cooling course for the plant is the nearby Chadakoin River nearby and, by code, the power plant cannot reject more than 13.19 x 109 MJ into the river annually. Determine the maximum average power output of this plant and it's maximum thermal efficiency. To check your work, enter the efficiency, as a decimal, in the box provided.
