Heater.. The steady flow equation as applied to a fluid heater..

Potential energy (z) assumed to be constant..
Kinetic energy changes (1 to 2) assumed to be very small




Heater

w = 0 therefore 
q = h2-h1





Turbine ..(Assumed Adiabetic Expansion)..The steady flow equation as applied to a turbine..

Potential energy (z) assumed to be constant..
Kinetic energy changes (1 to 2) assumed to be very small

 Turbine

q = 0 therefore 
w = h2-h1





Throttling ..(Assumed Adiabetic )...The steady flow equation as applied to a orifice..

Potential energy (z) assumed to be constant..
The higher velocity at orifice section is dissipated in tube downstream of the orifice and therefore the kinetic energies at 1 and 2 are similar


Orifice

q = w = 0 therefore 
therefore h1 = h2





Nozzle..(Assumed Adiabetic )...The steady flow equation as applied to smooth nozzle..

Potential energy (z) assumed to be constant..
Kinetic energy changes are assumed to be significant


Nozzle

q = w = 0 therefore 
(v22 - v12 ) /2 = (h1 - h2 )
