A pump, operating at steady state, is drawing water from a reservoir at T.-15°C and p1= 1 bar and the mass flow rate is 1.5 kg/s. The exit pressure when the water enters a storage tank located 15 m above the pump inlet is 3 bar. The water temperature remains constant from inlet to outlet at T=15°C. Neglect both kinetic energy Changes and heat transfer between the pump and the surroundings. Assume g=9.81 m/s2. Determine the power needed by the pump, in kW.

Respuesta :

Answer:

W = - 523.425 W = -0.5234 kW

Negative sign show power input to the pump

Explanation:

By using energy balanced at state q and state 2

[tex]\dot m ( h_1 +\frac{v_1^2}{2} + gz_1) + Q = \dot m ( h_2 +\frac{v_2^2}{2} + gz_2) + w[/tex]

As it is given neglect kinetic energy and heat transfer therefore above equation rduece to

[tex]\dot m ( h_1 + gz_1) = \dot m ( h_2 + gz_2) + W[/tex]

[tex]W = \dot m ( h_1-h_2) + \dot m g (z_1 - Z_2)[/tex]

As temp remain cosntant , so enthalapy difference is givena s

[tex]h_1 -h_2 = v_f (p_1 - p_2)[/tex]

from saturated water tables, for temperature 15 degree celcius  specific volume of water is

[tex]v_1 =v_f = 1.009 \times 10^{-3} m^3/kg[/tex]

[tex]W = \dot m ( h_1-h_2) + \dot m g (z_1 - Z_2)[/tex]

[tex]W =  \dot m v_f (p_1 - p_2)+ \dot m g (z_1 - Z_2)[/tex]

putting zi =0, z2 = 15, m= 1.5 kg/s

[tex]W = 1.5\times 1.009\times 10^[-3} (1-3) \times 10^5 + 1.5\times 9.81\times(0-15)[/tex]

W = - 523.425 W

Negative sign show power input to the pump

The required power by the pump will be "-523.425 W".

Power and Temperature

According to the question,

Mass flow rate, m = 1.5 kg/s

Outlet temperature, z₂ = 15°C

By using energy balanced,

→ m(h₁ + [tex]\frac{v_1^2}{2}[/tex] + gz₁) + Q = m(h₂ + [tex]\frac{v_2^2}{2}[/tex] + gz₂) + w

By neglecting Kinetic energy, we get

m(h₁ + gz₁) + Q = m(h₂ + gz₂) + w

                    w = m(h₁ - h₂) + mg(z₁ - z₂)

Now, the enthalpy difference be:

h₁ - h₂ = [tex]v_f[/tex] (p₁ - p₂)

We know,

v₁ = [tex]v_f[/tex]

   = 1.009 × 10⁻³ m³/kg

Now,

→ w = m[tex]v_f[/tex](p₁ - p₂) + mg(p₁ - p₂)

By substituting the values,

      = 1.5 × 1.009 × 10⁻³ (1 - 3) × 10⁵ + 1.5 × 9.81 × (0.15)

      = -523.425 W (Power input)

Thus the above response is correct.
