A steady-flow thermodynamic system receives 100 lb/min of fluid at 30 psia and 200 Fahrenheit and discharges it from a point 80 ft above the entrance section at 150 psia and 600 Fahrenheit. The fluid enters with velocity of 1200 fpm and leaves with a velocity of 200 fpm. During this process, there are supplied 25,000 Btu/hr of heat from an external source and the increase in enthalpy is 2 Btu/lb. Determine the work done in horsepower.
