4-1-77 Air enters an adiabatic compressor at steady state at a pressure of 100 kPa, a

temperature of 20°C, and a flow rate of 0.25 m3/s. Compressed air is discharged from the
compressor at 800 kPa and 270°C. Given that the inlet and exit pipe diameters are 4 cm,
determine (a) the exit velocity of air at the compressor outlet and (b) the compressor power.
Use PG model for air. (c) What-if scenario: How would the compressor power change if
the pipe diameters at the inlet and exit were 5 cm?

4-4-7 Steam is bled from a turbine to supply 2 MW of process heat in a chemical plant at
200°C as shown in the schematic so that state 4 is saturated liquid water at 200°C. At the
turbine inlet (state-1) steam is at 5 MPa, 500°C and at the turbine exit the pressure is 10
kPa. Determine (a) the quality of steam at the turbine exit, (b) the bleed pressure in MPa
(assume no frictional losses), (c) the bleed rate, and (d) the mass flow rate at the turbine
inlet if the power output is 2 MW. (e) What-if Scenario: What would the mass flow rate at
state-1 be if the process heating demand went down to 1 MW?
