1. Consider a jet engine with an air compressor. Air enters the compressor at 3000L/s, 20 degree Celsius and 110
kPa and while releasing 20 kJ/kg of heat to the surroundings. Find the temperature at the compressor outlet if
the compressor requires 500 kW of power to perform the process. Assume the process to be at constant specific
heat at 300K
2. Consider a well-insulated turbine. Steam enters the inlet at 8MPa and 450 degree Celsius at 210 L/s. The turbine
produces 3 MW of power. If the steam exits the turbine at 20 kPa, calculate the temperature of the steam at the
turbine exit. List all necessary assumptions used to solve the question.
3. Consider a well-insulated air compressor. A 500 W mixer is attached to the compressor's internal wall. Air flows
in at 10L/s at 0.15 MPa and 20 degree Celsius. Find the power consumed by the compressor if the air leaves the
exit as 1 MPa and 350 degree Celsius. Assume the process to be at constant specific heat at 300K.
4. Consider a jet engine with an air compressor. Air enters the compressor at 3 kg/s, 15 degree Celsius and 100 kPa
while consuming 550 kW of power. The air leaves at 250 ˚C. Identify whether the is heat absorbed or released
during the process.
5. Consider a turbine. Steam enters the inlet at 8MPa and 450 degree Celsius at 210 L/s. If the steam exits the
turbine at 20 kPa and 50 ˚C. Find the amount of power produced by the turbine in kW. List all necessary
assumptions used to solve the question.
6. Consider a turbine. Steam enters the inlet at 7MPa and 450 degree Celsius at 250 L/s. The steam exits the turbine
at 20 kPa as saturated vapor while producing 6 MW of power. Identify whether the turbine is well insulated or
not during the process. List all necessary assumptions used to solve the question.
7. Consider a piston-cylinder device initially filled with 15 kg air at 300 kPa and 25 ˚C. The air is
heated using an electric heater to 95 ˚C at constant pressure. Due to poor insulation, 60 kJ of
energy is lost to the surroundings. If the heater is turned on for 1 hour, find the energy
supplied by the electric heater in kJ/s. Show your steps to calculate the answer clearly.
8. Consider a well insulated piston-cylinder device initially filled with 100 L air at 400 kPa and
25 ˚C. A stirrer attached to the piston gives 15 Kj of work to the air while keeping the
pressure constant. Find the final temperature of the air after the stirrer is on for 30 minutes.
9. Consider a piston-cylinder device initially filled with air at 400 kPa and 17 ˚C. An electric
stirrer is attached to the cylinder. When the stirrer is on, 75 Kj/kg of work is transferred to
the air. During the process, heat is released to the surroundings due to poor insulation, and
the volume of the air triples. Find the amount of heat energy transferred during the process
if it is an isothermal process.
