Hot gases enter a jet engine turbine with a velocity of 50 m/s, a temperature of 1200 K, and a pressure of 600 kPa. The gases exit the turbine at a pressure of 250 kPa and a velocity of 75 m/s. Assume isentropic steady flow and that the hot gases behave as a perfect gas with constant specific heats (mean molecular mass = 25; y = output in kJ/(kg of mass flowing through the turbine). 1.37). Find the turbine power
Theory and Design for Mechanical Measurements
Measurement is a term that refers to analyzing a manufactured component regarding the degree of accuracy for dimensions, tolerances, geometric profile, roundness, flatness, smoothness, etc. Measurement always involves comparing the manufactured component or the prototype with a standard specimen whose dimensions and other parameters are assumed to be perfect and do not undergo changes with respect to time.Precisely in mechanical engineering the branch that deals with the application of scientific principles for measurements is known as metrology. The domain of metrology in general deals with various measurements like mechanical, chemical, thermodynamic, physical, and biological measurements. In mechanical engineering, the measurements are limited to mechanical specific such as length, mass, surface profile, flatness, roundness, viscosity, heat transfer, etc.
Basic principles of engineering metrology
Metrology is described as the science of measurement, precision, and accuracy. In other words, it is a method of measurement based on units and predefined standards.
Kindly answer the extra question related to the main question. Thanks!
![If you wanted to increase your turbine power output you could do that by
burning more fuel to raise your inlet temperature or you could add heat
through the outer casing of your turbine. What about the outlet velocity?
Should the outlet velocity be higher or lower when you want to obtain
more turbine power output?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F240366c6-8bbf-4e5a-ac56-94eb0d38f3ba%2Fabc61faa-e20e-4622-8d3d-6aa427d0203e%2Fpdehqxh_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
