Q418
High pressure steam is expanded adiabati-cally and reversibly through a well insulated turbine, which produces some shaft work. If the enthalpy change and entropy change across the turbine are represented by ΔH and ΔS respectively for this process:
A.
ΔH = 0 and ΔS = 0
B.
ΔH ≠ 0 and ΔS = 0
AnswerC.
ΔH ≠ 0 and ΔS ≠ 0
D.
ΔH = 0 and ΔS ≠ 0
Answer: Option B
Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
For a reversible adiabatic process the entropy change is zero since But the enthalpy change need not be zero since the internal energy and pressure energy may vary during the process.
