Steam Boilers, Engines, Nozzles and Turbines Which of the following statement is correct for a compound steam engine? The ratio of expansion is reduced, thus reducing the length of stroke The forces in the working parts are increased as the forces are distributed over more parts The cost of the engine, for the same power and economy, is more than that of a simple steam engine The temperature range per cylinder is increased, with corresponding increase in condensation The ratio of expansion is reduced, thus reducing the length of stroke The forces in the working parts are increased as the forces are distributed over more parts The cost of the engine, for the same power and economy, is more than that of a simple steam engine The temperature range per cylinder is increased, with corresponding increase in condensation ANSWER DOWNLOAD EXAMIANS APP
Steam Boilers, Engines, Nozzles and Turbines In a boiler, feed water supplied per hour is 205 kg while coal fired per hour is 23 kg. The net enthalpy rise per kg of water is 145 kJ.
