The gas expanding in the combustion space of a reciprocating engine has an initial pressure of 5 MPa and an initial temperature of 1623°C. The initial volume is 0.05 m^3 and the gas expands through a volume ratio of 20 according to the law PV^1.25 = constant. Calculate: a) Work transfer b) Heat transfer

For the closed feedwater heater below, feedwater enters state 3 at a pressure of 2000 psia and temperature of 420 °f at a rate of ix10 ibhr. the feedwat extracted steam enters state 1 at a pressure of 1000 psia and enthalpy of 1500 btu/lbm. the extracted er leaves at an enthalpy of 528.7 btu/lbm steam leaves as a saturated liquid. (16) a) determine the mass flow rate of the extraction steam used to heat the feedwater (10) b) determine the terminal temperature difference of the closed feedwater heater

Manometers are good examples of measuring instruments, nowadays they are not as common as before. a)-capacitive probe gauges b)-gravitational gauges deformation ) gauges d)-digital gauges
