A mixture of air and methane is formed in the inlet manifold of a natural gas-fueled internal combustion engine. The mole fraction of the methane is 15 percent. This engine is operated at 3000 rpm and has a 5-L displacement. Determine the mass flow rate of this mixture in the manifold where the pressure and temperature are 80 kPa and 208C.

Acompressor receives the shaft work to decrease the pressure of the fluid. a)- true b)- false

Air is compressed isentropically from an initial state of 300 k and 101 kpa to a final temperature of 1000 k. determine the final pressure using the following approaches: (a) approximate analysis (using properties at the average temperature) (b) exact analysis

To design a steam turbine to produce 12,000 hp power. a engineer comsiders using a steady state stean low st 1160fr and engineer considers using a steady state steam flow at 1160°r and 450 psia to drive this steam turbine. the exhaust of the steam is cooled by the lake (vacuum). heat losing to the surroundings is measured at a rate of 555.55 btu/s. (a) sketch the system with the given conditions. (b) neglecting kinetic and potential energy changes from inlet to exit, determine the volumetric flow rate of the steam at the inlet, (ft'/hr). must clearly show unit conversions at crtical terms.
