Question 50
CHNAT2 marksNeeds review
An adiabatic pump of efficiency 40% is used to increase the water pressure from 200 kPa to 600 kPa. The flow rate of water is 600 L/min. The specific heat of water is 4.2 kJ/(kg °C). Assuming water is incompressible with a density of 1000 kg/m
, the maximum temperature rise of water across the pump is ____ °C (rounded off to 3 decimal places).Log in to check the answer
