Problem 3- Clausius Inequality The table below shows different processes occurring in a power cycle operating steadily between a hot and cold reservoirs at T₁ = 1800 K and T₁ = 600 K, respectively. Use the Clausius Inequality to evaluate and classify each case as reversible, possible, or impossible. Your conclusion has to be based on the result of the evaluation of the inequality. Also, for each case, indicate if there is a violation of the first and/or second law of thermodynamics.

A reversible heat engine operates between two reservoirs: one at Th = 395.0°C and another at Te = 150°C. It goes through a cycle consisting of an adiabatic compression during which it ab- sorbs 125.0 J of heat energy, followed by an isothermal expansion at Th, followed by an adiabatic expansion, followed by an isothermal compression at Te. The output of the engine is used to run a reversible refrigerator operating between the same two reservoirs, that has a cycle consisting of an adiabatic expansion, followed by an isothermal expansion at Te, followed by an adiabatic com- pression, followed by an isothermal compression at Th. The output of the engine is used to run the refrigerator. e) What is the total change in entropy of the universe in running this system?

A steam turbine is supplied with steam at 20.6 bar and 399°C. After the steam has expanded to 4.04 bar, it is reheated to 315.5°C and then expands down to a pressure of 0.065 bar. The efficiency of each expansion may take as 75%. 1. Determine the thermal efficiency, in percentile (%), of the cycle. 2. Determine the mass of steam required in kg per kW·hr.
