Saturated steam at 230 degrees F, 20.78 psia and 19.386 ft cubed per pound of mass enters a compressor with an internal energy of 108.26 Btu/lb of mass and is compressed to 80 psia. the mass flow rate is 50 lb mass per hour. Heat loss from the compressor to the surroundings occurs at a rate of 112 btu/hr. The power input is 1.5HP. Find the enthalpy of the exit steam

Initial and final temperature of liquid due to heat transfer : A 50 kg hot iron block is dropped into a relatively cold lake at temperature T. During thermal equilibrium the lake receives Q amount of heat from the iron block. Show that the entropy change of the lake is Q/T starting with an expression for the spe..

Work required using the saturated liquid approximation : Saturated liquid water at 25 degrees C is pumped to a pressure of 5 MPa in an isothermal process. The specific work required by the pump to pressurize the water to 5 MPa can be found as the change in enthalpy of the water from the inlet pressure to t..
