In the 100 mw electric output solar-powered brayton-cycle plant, helium enters the compressor (c) at a pressure of 1 bar and temperature of 318 k and exits at pressure of 10 bar. the mass flow rate of helium is 73 kg/s. after gaining thermal energy from liquid-fluoride-salt in the heat exchanger (h), helium enters the turbine (t) at pressure of 10 bar and temperature of 1500 k, and exits the turbine at a pressure of 1 bar. ignore heat loss to the atmosphere, and kinetic and potential energy effects. assume helium to behave as an ideal gas with constant specific heats. cp for helium can be found from table a-21. ratio of specific heat (k) for helium is 1.66. the isentropic efficiency for the compressor and the turbine is 90% each. calculate following at steady-state:

a. temperature of helium at the exit of the compressor, in k.

b. work consumed by the compressor, in mw.

c. work produced by the turbine, in mw.

d. heat transfer rate from liquid-fluoride-salt to helium, in mw.

e. net work produced by the bratyon-cycle, in mw.

f. thermal efficiency of the brayton-cycle.

Ashielded metal arc-welding operation is accomplished in a work cell by a fitter and a welder. the fitter takes 5.5 min to load components into the welding fixture at the beginning of the work cycle, and 1.5 min to unload the completed weldment at the end of the cycle. the total ength of the weld seams 1200 mm, and the travel speed used by the welder averages 300 mm/min. every 600 mm of seam length, the welding stick must be changed, which takes 0.8 min. while the fitter is working, the welder is idle (resting): and while the welder is working the fitter is idle. (a) determine the average arc-on time as a fraction of the work cycle time. (b) how much improvement in arc-on time would result if the welder used flux-cored arc welding (manually operated), given that the spool of weld wire must be changed every 10 weldments, and it takes the welder 5.0 min to accomplish the change? (c) what are the production rates for these two cases (weldments completed per hour)? attach your work and solutions.
