An open-cycle gas turbine plant is used to generate power in an oil refinery. The gas turbine unit drives a generator which supplies electric motors of 2400 kW; the overall mechanical and electrical efficiency is 92%. Some of the exhaust gas from the turbine at 530°C is supplied to a furnace in the refinery at a rate of 2 kg/s; the remainder of the exhaust gas is passed in counter-flow through a heat exchanger where it heats the air leaving the compressor, and then passes to exhaust at 400°C. The compressor has a pressure ratio of 8 and the air at entry is at 1.013 bar and 20°C. The pressure loss in the air side of the heat exchanger is 0.16 bar, the pressure loss in the combustion chamber is 0.12 bar, and the pressure loss in the gas side of the heat exchanger is 0.05 bar. The isentropic efficiencies of the compressor and turbine are 0.85 and 0.92 respectively. Neglecting heat losses in the heat exchanger, and the mass flow rate of fuel, calculate: (i) the mass flow rate of air entering the compressor:

) Two boilers, one with superheater(B1) and other without superheater(B2) are delivering equal quantities of steam into a common main. The pressure in the boiler and main is 20 bars. The temperature of the steam from a boiler with a superheater is 350oC and temperature of the steam in the main is 250oC. The steam in B2 is wet steam at 20oC. i) Draw a sketch of the problem with all thermodynamic properties from steam table shown on the sketch. ii) Determine the quantity of steam supplied by the other boiler.

1. In general, the internal energy U depends on both temperature and volume, U=U(TV). The volume dependence comes from the potential energy due to the interactions among the particles. For free particles, there are no interactions, thus, the internal energy U should be independent of the volume, i.e., = 0. Verify this result for ideal gas pV = RT. au av

2: The first law of thermodynamics can be written as: TdS = dU + PdV = dU = TdS – PdV. Moreover, we also use some other thermodynamic potentials. Most common three are: Helmholtz free energy: F = U – TS, Gibbs free energy: G = F + PV, Enthalpy: H = U + PV. From here prove the following: dF = -SdT – PdV, dG = -SdT +VdP, %3D dH = TdS + VdP. %3D
