Acompressor compresses a gas, a pump compresses a liquid. for a given pressure ratio, why does it take more work to compress a gas in a compressor than a liquid in a pump? a)- for a given pressure ratio the average specific volume for a gas is much higher than the average specific volume for a liquid. b)- there is no difference. the only difference is the amount of heat generated (not work) c)- for a given pressure ratio the average volume for a gas is much higher than the average volume for a liquid. d)-there is no difference.

Areheat rankine cycle operates with water as the working fluid. steam enters the first turbine at 8 mpa and 450°c and exits at 0.8 mpa. it is then reheated to 400°c before entering the second turbine, where it exits at 10 kpa. if the amount of work into the pump is 8.04 kj/kg and the net work per cycle produced is 1410.25 kj/kg, determine the thermal efficiency of the cycle.

Air undergoes a constant pressure cooling process with no moisture added or removed. the air originally exists at 45 °c, 150 kpa and 35 % relative humidity. it is cooled until the temperature reaches 29 oc. determine (a) the relative humidity of the cooled air. (b) the dew point temperature of the cooled air in °c. (c) the heat removed during the cooling process in kj/kg. use the psychrometric chart to check your answers (this part will not be graded; however, it will you get comfortable using the psychrometric chart)
