A compressor is fed with superheated steam at 300°C and 20 bar. The compressor inlet speed is 20 m/s and the internal diameter is 0.1 m. The discharge tube, after the compressor, with a smaller diameter is 170 m/s. Compressor output is superheated steam at 300°C and 20 bar. The heat loss from the compressor to the surroundings is 5 kW. Determine the work generated by the compressor in hp.
The diameter of an air compressor cylinder is 140 mm, the stroke of the piston is 180 mm, and the clearance volume is 77 cm². The pressure and temperature of the air in the cylinder at the end of the suction stroke and beginning of compression is 0.97 bar and 13°C. The delivery pressure is constant at 4.2 bar. Taking the law of compression as PV1.3 = C, calculate the volume of air delivered per stroke in liters. (16) 0.7485 O 0.6485 O 0.8457 O 0.5847 O 0.4857
2.) Steam enters a turbine at 1380 kPa with internal energy of 2705 kJ/kg and specific volume of 0.1655 m'/kg. Exhaust is at 7 kPa with internal energy 2150 kJ/kg and specific volume of 18.36 m/kg.

Air at a rate of 50 m3/min enters an adiabatic compressor at a pressure of 100 kPa and a temperature of 24.3 C and exits at 500 kPa and 189.55 C. It then enters an insulated heat exchanger where it gets cooled by water. The air exits the heat exchanger at a temperature of 57.35 C. Water enters the heat exchanger at 20 C and exits at 50 C. Calculate the compressor power in kW, the mass for rate of the cooling water in kg/sec, and the rate of entropy generation for the compressor and the heat exchanger. Assume a mean heat capacity of water at ?? = 4.18 ??/???. You may also assume that there is no pressure drop in the heat exchanger)
8. In a steady flow apparatus 135 KJ of work is done by each kg of fluid. The specific volume of the fluid, pressure, and speed at the inlet are 0.30 m³/kg, 600 kPa, and 16m/s. The inlet is 32m above the floor and the discharge pipe are at floor level. The discharge conditions are 0.60 m³/kg, 1 bar, and 270 m/s. The total heat loss between the inlet and discharge is 9KJ/kg of fluid. In flowing through this apparatus, does the specific internal energy increase or decrease? And by how much?

A site is being considered for wind power generation. At this site, the wind blows steadily at 9 m/s for 2,579 hours per year. Assuming the wind velocity is negligible at other times for simplicity, determine the kWh/year that can be produced at the site for a turbine with a mechanical efficiency of 100% and an effective flow area of 5 m2. Use a value of 1.25 kg/m3 for the density of the air. Give your answer in killowatt-hours per year (kWh/year). Hint: I reccomend starting by finding the kinetic energy (kJ/kg) of the wind. Hint 2: Multiply the power generation (kW) by the number of hours of wind per year (h/year) to get kWh/year.
