Q.1.
What is Wilson line?
Q.2.
Considering metastable expansion to be in effect, the flow of wet steam though a convergent-divergent nozzle shall result in a discharge slightly less than the calculated one.
Q.3.
The sudden expansion of dry saturated steam in the absence of dust, doesn’t lead to condensation until its density is about 8 times that of the saturated vapor of the same pressure.
Q.4.
Calculate the enthalpy drop steam enters a convergent-divergent nozzle atbar and 250°C and leaves at 1 bar. The expansion is to be considered metastable.
Q.5.
Steam atbar and 300°C enters a convergent-divergent steam nozzle and leaves at 3 bar. If the expansion of the steam is metastable, calculate the supercooled temperature.
Q.6.
Steam atbar and 300°C enters a convergent-divergent steam nozzle and is discharged at 3 bar. Considering the effects of supersaturation calculate the degree of undercooling.
Q.7.
Calculate the degree of supersaturation if steam atbar 250°C is discharged at 2 bar by a convergent-divergent nozzle. Consider metastable steam expansion and negligible inlet velocity.
Q.8.
Steam atbar pressure and 250°C enters a convergent-divergent steam nozzle and leaves at 4 bar. The mass flow rate is 5 kg/s. Calculate the exit area of the nozzle if the expansion is metastable.
Q.9.
What is the value of index of expansion for supersaturated steam. (Pvn=C, n is the index of expansion)
Q.10.
Which of the following statement about metastable expansion of steam through a steam nozzle is FALSE?
Q.11.
The point on the h-s diagram at which the condensation beings and normal conditions of thermal equilibrium are restored is said to be on _____
Q.12.
Which of the following is NOT an effect of supersaturation in steam flowing through a convergent-divergent nozzle?
Q.13.
Determine the exit pressure of steam if the steam enters a nozzle atbar and 300°C. At the outlet it is observed that the specific volume of the steam is 0.m3/kg. The expansion of steam is metastable.
