Refrigerant-134a enters a diffuser steadily as saturated vapor at 600 kPa with a velocity of 160 m/s, and it leaves at 700 kPa and 40∘C. The refrigerant is gaining heat at a rate of 2 kJ/s as it passes through the diffuser. If the exit area is 80 percent greater than the inlet area, determine (a) the exit velocity and (b) the mass flow rate of the refrigerant.

a) V_2 = 82.1 m/s

b) m = 0.298 Kg/s

Explanation:

from A-11 to A-13 we have the following data

P_1 = 600 kpa

V_1 = 0.033925 m^3/kg

h_1 = 262.52 kJ/kg

P_2 = 700 kpa

V_2 = 0.0313 m^3/kg

T_2 = 40°C = 313K

h_2 = 278.66 kJ/kg

Now, from the conversation of mass,

A_2*V_2/u_2 = A_1*V_1/u_1

V_2 = A_1/A_2*u_2/u_1*V_1

V_2 = A_1/1.8*A_1 * 0.0313 /0.033925*160

V_2 = 82.1 m/s

now from the energy balance equation

E_in = E_out

Q_in + m(h_1 + V_1^2/2) =  m(h_2 + V_2^2/2)

m = 0.298 Kg/s

answer: jesus loves you

explanation:

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
