An ideal gas mixture consists of 35% Argon (Ar) and 65% carbon dioxide (CO2) gases, by mass. The mixture is now expanded isentropically in a turbine from 1200K and 1.2 MPa to a pressure of 150 kPa. For the two components use properties listed in Table A1 and Table A2a (at 300K) – ideal gas with constant specific heats. The mixture temperature at turbine exit is, in Kelvin (round to nearest integer; for example if the answer is 345.6K, write 346; if the answer is 345.4C write 345; do not include the units in your answer)

Problem 1 An equimolar mixture of helium and argon gases is to be used as the working fluid in a closed-loop gas- turbine cycle. The mixture enters the turbine at 1.6 MPa and 1500 K and expands isentropically to a pressure of 200 kPa. Determine the work output of the turbine per unit mass of the mixture.
4) An ideal-gas mixture of helium and nitrogen with a nitrogen mass fraction of 35 percent is contained in a piston-cylinder device arranged to maintain a fixed pressure of 700 kPa. The mixture is heated from 300 K to 500 K a. Determine the molar mass and gas constant for the mixture. b. Determine the work produced, in kJ/kg. (Hint: Try finding the specific c.

5) Evaluating Changes in Entropy for an Ideal Gas Air enters a turbine at 427 °C and 1 MPa and exits at 127 °C. The outlet pressure can be tuned by the operator in the range from 300 - 800 kPa. Determine the change in specific entropy of the air, se -si, as it flows through this turbine 3 ways a) Assuming constant specific heats. b) Integrating an appropriate formula from Table A-2(c) from the text, which gives a polynomial...
