QUESTION 1
The average blade velocity of a single-stage impulse turbine is 300 m/s. The relative
inlet velocity of the gas is 600 m/s and the blade inlet angle is 20 o. Friction causes a
5% loss in velocity as the steam moves over the blades. The turbine does not develop
any axial thrust and uses 90 kg gas every minute.
1.1 Use a scale of 1 cm = 50 m/s and construct a velocity diagram in the
ANSWER BOOK. Enter ALL the values (m/s) onto the diagram.
NOTE: No marks will be awarded if the values (m/s) are not entered onto
the diagram and if the diagram is not constructed to the given
scale.
HINT: Use the ANSWER PAGE in the LANDSCAPE FORMAT to
construct the diagram. (11)

QUESTION 1
1.1 - The treated water can be re-used in the boiler and this reduces cost.
- A hot water supply is available which requires less energy for transformation
to steam.
-The pressure in the condenser is below atmospheric pressure which
increases the thermal efficiency of the plant and the work done per kilogram
of steam. (6)
1.2 Given:
Ms = 6500kg / hour Air Leakage = 1,2kg / 1000kg steam
tc = 31o C Bm = 760 mmHg
Vm = 662 mmHg t 2 − t1 = 21o C
x = 0,83 shc w = 4,187 kJ / kg.K
R = 0,288 kJ / kg.K
1.2.1
Pt = (Bm − Vm ) × 101,325
760
= (760 − 662) × 101,325
760
= 13 kPa
Heat lost by steam = Heat gained by water
M s {(hf + xhfg ) − hc} = M w × shc w × ∆t
6500
{[214 + (0,83 × 2380)] − 130} = M w × 4,187 × 21
60
223101,6667 = 87,927 M w
∴M w = 2537,351 kg / min
