team enters a turbine operating at steady state at 2 MPa, 360°C with a velocity of 100 m/s. Saturated vapor exits at 0.1 MPa and a velocity of 50 m/s. The elevation of the inlet is 3 m higher than at the exit. The mass flow rate of the steam is 15 kg/s, and the power developed is 7 MW. Let g = 9.81 m/s2. Determine (a) the area at the inlet, in m2, and (b) the rate of heat transfer between the turbine and its surroundings, in kW.

Answer:

-313.7 KW

Explanation:

Given

Fluid: Steam

Inlet 1:

Pressure [tex]P_{1}[/tex] = 2MPa

Temperature [tex]T_{1}[/tex]= 360°C

Velocity [tex]V_{1}[/tex] = 100 m/s

Exit 2:

Saturated vapor

Pressure [tex]P_{2}[/tex]= 0 .1 MPa

Velocity [tex]V_{2}[/tex] = 50 m/s  

Mass flow rate m = 15 Kg/s

The elevation of the inlet [tex]Z_{1} -Z_{2}[/tex] = 3 m

Gravitational force g = 9.81 m/s^2

Power developed W = +7 MW  

Required

a) The area at the inlet  [tex]A_{1} [m^2][/tex]

b) The rate of heat transfer between the turbine and its surroundings   [tex]Q[KW][/tex]

Assumption

Constant average values.

Steady flow.  

Solution

a) specific volume for steam at [tex]P_{1}=2 Mpa[/tex] and [tex]T_{1}=360 C[/tex] from table

[tex]v_{1}=0.1411 m^3/kg\\[/tex]

Mass flow rate could be defined by.

[tex]m=\frac{AV}{v}[/tex]

Then area at inlet could be calculated as following.

[tex]A_{1} =\frac{mv_{1} }{V_{1} }=0.021 m^2[/tex]

b)

Energy equation could be defined by.

 [tex]Q-W=m[(h_{2} -h_{1} )+\frac{V_{2}^2-V_{1}^2 }{2}+g( Z_{2}-Z_{1} )[/tex]

specific enthalpy for steam at [tex]P_{1}=2 Mpa[/tex]  and [tex]T_{1}=360 C[/tex]  from table

[tex]h_{1} =3159.3 kJ/kg[/tex]

specific enthalpy for steam at [tex]P_{2}=0.1 Mpa[/tex] and in saturated vapor state from table

[tex]h_{2} =32675.5 kJ/kg[/tex]

Then The rate of heat transfer between the turbine and its surroundings could be calculated as following.

[tex]Q=W+m[(h_{2} -h_{1} )+\frac{V_{2}^2-V_{1}^2 }{2}+g( Z_{2}-Z_{1} )[/tex]

=-313.7 KW

As the sign is negative it means that the heat transfer is from turbine to the surrounding.
