1. (a) An inventor claims to have designed. an
equipment which takes in air at 05 MPa and
27C and gives two streams of equal ma3s of
air, one hot stream at 01 MPa and 4()) K and
the other cold stream at 01 MPa and WO K. It
is also claimed that the equipment ooes not
require energy either in the form of :1eat or
work. Judge whether it is theoretically feasible
or not based on the thermodynamic principles. 10

(c) In a BWR type nuclear reactor, the teat of
nuclear fission is transferred to water In a
reactor, water comes out of the reac:or as
saturated vapour at 72 bar. The steam flo-.vs
through a turbine and exhausts at 008 bar to a
conC.enser. The water leaves the conden.:;er at
008 bar and 40C (h = 1765 kJ/kg). The liquid
water is again pumped through a pump 1o the
nuclear reactor. Isentropic efficiency o::" the
turbine is 70%. The plant has a capacity Jf
750 MW. CalculatE the mass flow rate of steam
circui.ated and the rate of heat generation.
