    Joshua Barte
    This document provides two sample problems and two exercise problems involving thermodynamic calculations for steady-state, steady-flow systems. The first sample problem calculates the shaft work as 97 kJ given heat transfer, internal energy change, and kinetic energy change. The second sample problem calculates the shaft work as 167.82 horsepower given mass flow rate and properties at the inlet and outlet of the system, including heat transfer, potential energy change, kinetic energy change, and flow work.

    THERMODYN

    STEADY-STATE, STEADY-FLOW SYSTEMS

    SAMPLE PROBLEMS:

    1. An internally reversible process occurs in a system during which Q = – 12 kJ, ΔU = – 79 kJ, and ΔH
    = – 111 kJ. Determine, the shaft work if the system is steady-state, steady-flow with ΔKE = 2 kJ.

    Solution: Since ΔH is given, we will use Q = ΔPE + ΔKE + ΔH + Wsf.


    Also, no elevations (z1 and z2) were given, we let ΔPE = 0 kJ.
    Wsf = Q – ΔPE – ΔKE – ΔH
    = – 12 – 0 – 2 – (– 111)

    Wsf = 97 kJ

    2. Assume 5 lbm/sec of fluid enter a steady-state, steady-flow system with p 1 = 100 psia, 𝜌1
    = 0.2 lbm/ft3 , v́1 = 100 fps, 𝑢1 = 800 Btu/lbm, and leave with p2 = 20 psia, 𝜌2 = 0.05 lbm/ft3,
    v́2 = 500 fps, 𝑢2 = 780 Btu/lbm. During passage through the open system, each pound
    rejects 10 Btu of heat. Find the work in horsepower.
    Given:

    Solution: Q = ΔPE + ΔKE + ΔU + ΔWf + Wsf


    Rearranging, Wsf = Q – ΔPE – ΔKE – ΔU – ΔWf

    EXERCISE PROBLEMS:
    1. An internally reversible process occurs in a system during which Q = – 12 kJ, ΔU = –
    79 kJ, and ΔWf = – 32 kJ. Determine, the shaft work if the system is steady-state,

    entry, its pressure is 175 psia, its volume is 3.16 ft 3/lbm and its internal energy is
    1166.7 Btu/lbm. At exit, its pressure is 0.813 psia, its volume is 328 ft 3/lbm and its
    internal energy is 854.6 Btu/lb m. What horsepower is developed?
    ANS. Wsf = 861.08 hp
