turbine is supplied with steam at a gauge pressure of L4bar. After expansion in the
turbine the steam passes to a condenser which is maintained at a vacuum of 710mm
Hg by means of pumps. The barometric pressure 772mm Hg, Express the inlet and
exhaust steam (absolute) pressures Nim’, Take the density of mereury as
13.6°10°kg/m!

A mercury manometer measuring the pressure in a steam plant condenser reads 63em
vacuum, The barometer in the plant room reads 76cm of mercury. WI is the
absolute pressure in the condenser in N/m??

2-1 During the expansion of 1kg of a fluid the internal energy changes from an initial value
of 1162ki/kg to a final value of 1025kJ/kg of shaft work are obtained, calculate the
quantity and direction of exchange between the fluid and surroundings. Assume
expansion is frictionless. (52k3 out wards)
2.2 Ina certain non —flow process with air as the working fluid, 100k, is removed from
the system and the internal energy decreases by 200k4. Is the process an expansion or
compression? What work is performed? (800k) compression work)Solu bien Prablenn s
