1) Liquid water at 150oC, 10,000 kPa is throttled into a flash evaporator chamber having a

pressure of 500 kPa. Neglect any change in the kinetic energy. What is the fraction of liquid and
vapor in the chamber assuming the process is adiabatic?

2) A steam turbine receives steam from two boilers. One flow is 3 kg/s at 3 MPa, 700°C and the
other flow is 10 kg/s at 800 kPa, 500°C. The exit state is 10 kPa, with a quality of 96%. Find the
total power output of the adiabatic turbine.

3) A piston cylinder arrangement has an initial pressure of 200 kPa and an initial volume of .04
m3. Heat is added into the system until the volume is .4 m3 in a such a way that PV1.3 = constant
describes the relation between pressure and volume during the process. Calculate the work
done during the process and the final pressure inside the cylinder.

4) A piston/cylinder contains water at 500 0C, 3 MPa. It is cooled in a polytropic process to

200 0C, 1 MPa. Find the polytropic exponent and the work done in the process
