A well-insulated tank in a vapor power plant operates at steady state. Saturated liquid water enters at inlet 1 at a rate of 125 lbm/s at 14.7 psia. Make-up water to replenish steam losses from the plant enters at inlet 2 at a rate of 10 lbm/s at 14.7 psia and 60o F. Water exits the tank at 14.7 psia. Neglect kinetic and potential energy effects, determine for the water exiting the the tank (a) the mass flow rate, in lb/s. (b) the specific enthalpy, in Btu/lb (c) the temperature, in F

Determine whether or not it is possible to compress air adiabatically from k to 140 kpa and 400 k. what is the entropy change during this process?

Ahot wire operates at a temperature of 200°c while the air temperature is 20°c. the hot wire element is a tungsten wire of 5 um diameter and 2 mm in length. plot using excel current, heat transfer and heat generated by the wire for air velocity varying from 1-10 m/s in steps of lm/s? matlab the sensor voltage output, resistance, or assume nu 0.989 re033pr13 take air properties at tr (200°c20°c)/2 = 110°c properties of tungsten: c 0.13 kj/kg.k 3 p 19250 kg/m k (thermal conductivity) = 174 w/m.k

Describe one experiment in which the glass transition temperature and melting temperature of a totally amorphous thermoplastic material can be determined. show the relevant experimental results in a diagram which should be properly annotated with the two temperatures clearly marked. what is likely to happen to the curve in the diagram if the amorphous polymer is replaced by a thermosetting type?
