Ejercicio 7.45 Determine the specific exergy and the specific flow exergy, each in Btu/lb, for steam at
600 lbf/in2, 900°F, with V=150 ft/s and z=50 ft. The velocity and elevation are relative to an exergy
reference enviroment for wich To=70°F, Po=1 atm and g=32.2 ft/s2.

Ejercicio 7.51 Water vapor enters a valve with a mass flow rate of 2.7 kg/s at a temperature of 280°C
and a pressure 30 bar and undergoes a throtling process to 20 bar. Let To=25°C, Po=1 atm.

(a) Determine the flow exergy rates at the valve inlet and exit and the rate of exergy
destruction, each in Kw.

(b) Evaluating exergy at 8 cents per-kWh, determine the annual cost associated with the
exergy destruction, assuming 7500 hours of operation anually.

Ejercicio 7.52 Steam at 100 lbf/in2, 600°F enters a valve operating at steady state and undergoes a
throtling process.

(a) Determine the exit temperature, in °F, and the exergy destruction rate, in Btu per lb of
steam flowing, for an exit pressure of 500 lbf/in2.

(b) Plot the exit temperature, in °F, and the exergy destruction rate, in Btu per lb of steam
flowing, each versus exit pressure ranging from 500 to 1000 lbf/in2.

Ejercicio 7.53 Air at 200 lbf/in2, 800°R, and a volumetric flow rate of 100 ft3/min enters the valve
operating at steady state and undergoes a throtling process. Assuming ideal gas behavior. Let
To=530°R, Po=15 lbf/in2.

(a) Determine the rate of exergy destruction, in Btu/min, for an exit pressure of 15 lbf/in2.

(b) Plot the exergy destruction rate, in Btu/min, versus exit pressure ranging from 15 to 200
lbf/in2.

Ejercicio 7.54 Steam enters a turbine operating at steady state at 6 Mpa, 500°C with a mass flow
rate of 400 kg/s. Saturated vapor exits at 8 kPa. Heat transfer from the turbine to its sorroundings
takes place at a rate of 8 MW at an average surface temperature of 180°C. Kinetic and potential
energy effects are negligible. Let To=530°R, Po=15 lbf/in2.

(a) For a control volume enclosing the turbine, determine the power developed and the rate of
exergy destruction, each in MW.

(b) If the turbine is located in a facility where the ambient temperatures is 27°C, determine the
rate of exergy destruction for an enlarged control volume that includes the turbine and its
inmediate sorroundings so the heat transfer takes place from the control volume at the ambient
temperature. Explain why the exergy desruction values of parts (a) and (b) differ.
