A reciprocating compressor draws in 500 cubic feet per minute of air whose density is 0.079
ft/cu. ft and discharges it with a density of 0.304 lb/cu. ft. At the suction, P, = 15 Psia; at
discharge, P2 80 psia. The increase in the specific internal energy is 33.8 BTu/lb and the heat
transferred from the air by cooling is 13Btu/lb. Determine the work on the air in BTU/min and in
hp. Neglect kinetic energy.
A nozzle is a device for increasing the velocity of a steadily flowing stream of fluid. At the inlet to a certain nozzle the enthalpy of the fluid is 3025 kJ/kg and the velocity is 60 m/s. At the exit from the nozzle the enthalpy is 2790 kJ/kg. The nozzle is horizontal and there is negligible heat loss from it.
(i) Find the velocity at the nozzle exit.
(ii) If the inlet area is 0.1 m2 and specific volume at inlet is 0.19 m3/kg, find the rate of flow of fluid
(iii) If the specific volume at the nozzle exit is 0.5 m3/kg, find the exit area of the nozzle.
A centrifugal air compressor handles 200 cfm from 12 psia to 90 psia. The initial specific volume is 12.6 cu ft/ lb and the final specific volume is 3.25 cu ft/lb.
