Part II

Questions
1- an adiabatic pump is to be used to compress saturated liquid water at 10 kPa to a
pressure of 15 MPa in a reversible manner. Determine the work input using :
1. entropy data from the compressed liquid table.
2. inlet specic volume and pressure values.
3. average specic volume and pressre values.
4. determine the errors involved in part 1 and 2 .

2- air is expanded in an adiabatic nozzle during a polytropic process with n=1.1. it

enters the nozzle at 700kPa and 100C with a velocity of 30 m/s and exits at a pressure
of 200 kPa. Calculate the air temperature and velocity at the nozzle exit.

3- An ideal gas undergoes a process between two specc temperature, rst at constant
pressure and then at constant volume. For which case will be the ideal gas experience
a larger entropy change? Explain.
