Calculate the pressure developed by 1kmol of gaseous Nitrogen contained in a vessel of 0.6 m? capacity at a constant temperature of 100°C by using: (i) Ideal gas equation of state (i) Vander wall equation of state a= 0.4233 Nm/mol?; b= 3.73* 107m’ /mol Compare the pressure and comment. A compressor is fed with 0.25 (m3/s) of dry air at 0.IMPa total pressure and 30 deg C which is flowing in an entrance pipe of 0.154 m in diameter. Down stream from the compressor a cooler removes 276.4 (MJ/h) from the gas. In the exit line of 0.028 m in diameter, the air is at 43 deg C and 0.55 MPa total pressure. Assuming the gas is ideal with a molal heat capacity of 29.3 ( ki/ (kg.K), determine the power input to the compressor. lain the cycles used for the thermodynamic analysis of the following cases giving relevant diagrams: )) steam power plant i) gas based power plant spark ignition engine (iv) refrigerator Discuss the corresponding Carnot cycles and give all the equations for the thermal efficiency / COP of all the cycles Explain the Dual cycle with diagrams.
