      There is one problem yet in my cycle. Someone could help me? I didn’t understand this problem.

      Thanks!

      The error is:

      ” IN EFFICIENCY CALCULATION OF APPARATUS NUMBER 1:
      – INGOING PIPE = 20, H = 1180. P = 0.65000
      – OUTGOING PIPE = 1, H = 1560. P = 15.000
      CHECK THE INLET AND THE OUTLET FOR THERMODYNAMIC PROPERTIES OF STATE! “

        Is this apparatus 1 a compressor or pump? Probably the isentropic efficiency is more than 100%. In such case, this warning would be obtained. Please take a look at the inlet and outlet parameters.

      Is a compressor. I didn’t put any value to isentropic efficiency. I’m sending a picture.

      Isentropic efficiency is computed using the specified inlet and outlet conditions. Dont have to specify. Check whether the entropy at outlet is lower than that at inlet?
      what is the fluid in this case?
      I did not find any image attached.

      Hi! The entropy at the outlet is lower than the inlet. The fluid is Helium. I didn’t get to attach the file.

      For the compressor handling Helium between pressures of 0.65 and 15 bar and the inlet temperature of 252.23 C (to give h=1180 at inlet), the outlet temperature should be 1571 C to give an isentropic efficiency of 100%. If the exit temperature is more than that, the isentropic efficiency will be less than 100%.
      At isentropic efficiency of 100%, the exit enthalpy would be 8027 kJ/kg.
      So, in your case, since the exit enthalpy is less than 8027, the isentropic efficiency is greater than 100% implying that entropy is destroyed which is against 2nd law.

      So, I have the data of the properties of helium.
      PIN = 0,65 BAR
      POUT = 15 BAR
      TIN = -46,95
      TOUT = 26,85

    • #2383

      I will try to attach the file.
