Calculate the inner diameter of the steam tube between the boiler and the high pressure turbine if the average velocity of the steam(state 1) is 60 m/s.
given is the mass flow rate at 18 kg/s.
specific volume (v) is 0,036793 m^3/kg
velocity (v) given as 60 m/s
how do i calculate this ? ?

The inner diameter of the steam tube is 0.1185 m.

Explanation:

m = mass flow rate

= density of the liquid

V=specific volume =

v = velocity of the liquid

A = area of cross-section

Diameter of the cross-section = d = 2r

Given: m = 18 kg/s, v = 60 m/s,A=?,

Area of the inner cross section =

d = 0.1185 m

The inner diameter of the steam tube is 0.1185 m.

altitude, density, pressure

air gets less dense the higher the altitude and also the air pressure is less as altitude rises.

the mantle

explanation:

earth is divided into three layers: the crust or the outermost layer on which we live; the underlying, middle layer - the mantle - and the core (the innermost layer of earth).
