Throttling Adiabatic Process

1) The document discusses various thermodynamic processes including throttling, Joule-Thompson effect, adiabatic, and irreversible adiabatic processes. It provides governing equations for analyzing each process. 2) An example problem is shown calculating moisture content using throttling process properties. Steam conditions entering and exiting a throttling calorimeter are given. 3) A second example calculates work done on steam in an adiabatic process using initial and final pressure and temperature/saturation properties.

a. Adiabatic Process – no heat loss, no heat gain
- Reversible adiabatic process = adiabatic (Q = 0)
= reversible (s = c)
Formulas: T

1. w = - u = u1 – u2
= non-flow work
2. u = u2 - u1
3. h = h2 - h1 1
4. Q = 0
5. s = 0 S
6. v = v2 - v1
7. Ws = steady flow work
= - h = h1 - h2
b. Irreversible adiabatic process
Formulas:
1. S2’ – S2 = irreversibility of the process
2. h2’ – h2 = internal reheat
3. w ’ = u1 – u2’ T

Example no. 1
Steam leaves an industrial boiler at 827.4 Kpa and 171.6⁰C. A portion of the steam is passed
through a throttling calorimeter and is exhausted to the atmosphere when the calorimeter
pressure is 101.4 kpa. How much moisture does the steam leaving the boiler contain if the
temperature of the steam at the calorimeter is 115.6⁰C
at 827.4 kpa ( 171.6⁰C) : hf= 727.25 KJ/kg hfg= 2043.2 KJ/kg
from table 3: at 101.4 kpa and 115.6⁰C h2= 2707.6 KJ/kg
Answer = 3.08%
Example no. 2
Steam enters an adiabatic at 300oC and 400 kpa. It exits as a saturated vapor at 30 kpa. Determine the
work done.
Answer = 441.50 KJ/kg
