In air standard brayton cycle the air enters the compressor at 100 kpa, 300 k. the pressure at the end

compression process is 500 kpa and the maximum temperature in the cycle is limited to 1200 k. calculate (a)

the pressure and temperature at each point in the cycle, (b) the compressor work, the turbine work and cycle

efficiency. assume specific heats to be constant.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

The mass flow rate of the fluid remains constant in all steady flow process. a)- true b)- false

Atmospheric air has a temperature (dry bulb) of 80° f and a wet bulb temperature of 60° f when the barometric pressure is 14.696 psia. determine the specific humidity, grains/lb dry air. a. 11.4 c. 55.8 d. 22.5 b. 44.1
