13. Air enters a 28 cm diameter pipe steadily at 200 kPa and 20 degrees celsius with
a velocity of 5m/s. Air is heated as it flows and leaves the pipe at 180 kPa and 40
degree celsius. The gas constant of air is 0.287 kJ/Kg-K. Determine:
a. the volumetric flowrate of air at the inlet
b. the mass flowrate of air and
c. the velocity and volume flowrate at the exit.

14. Air at 1 bar and 25℃ enters a compressor at low velocity discharges at 3 bar and enters a nozzle in
which it expands to a final velocity 600 m/s at initial conditions of pressure and temperature. If the
work of compression is 240 KJ/kg of air, how much heat must be removed during compression?
15. Water flows through a horizontal coil heated from the outside by high
temperature flue gases. As it passes through the coil, the water changes state from
liquid at 200KPa and 80℃ to vapor at 100 KPa and 125℃. Its entering velocity is 3
m/s and exit velocity is 200 m/s. Determine the heat transferred through the coil per
unit mass. Enthalpies inlet and outlet streams are: 334.9 Kj/Kg; outlet at 2726.5
KJ/Kg.
SOLUTION:
ΔH + Δu2/2 + gΔz = Q + Ws
Therefore,
ΔH + Δu2/2 = Q
Q = 2411.1 kJ/kg
