PROBLEM 2.0 The working substance for a Carnot cycle is 9 Ib of air. The volume at the beginning of isothermal expansion
is 10 cu ft and the pressure is 300 psia. The ratio of expansion during the addition of heat is 2 and the temperature of the
cold body is 90°F. Find
The heat added BTU.
The heat rejected in BTU.
The mean effective pressure in psi
The ratio of expansion during the isentropic process
The overall ratio of compression.
Solve it..
Steam engine with incomplete expansion receives saturated steam at 1.04 Mpa,expands it to 0.105 Mpa where release occurs. Exhaust is to a condenser at 40C.The actual engine uses 6070 kg/h of steam; it has a brake engine efficiency of 60%and a mechanical efficiency of 85%. The electric generator which it drives has anefficiency of 925. (a) For the ideal engine, find the thermal efficiency and the mep.For the actual engine, determine (b) the brake work in kW and the brake thermalefficiency, (c) the indicated work in kW, indicated thermal efficiency and indicatedsteam rate, (d) the combined thermal efficiency and the combined steam rate
