A hot-water stream at 70C enters an adiabatic mixing chamber with a mass flow rate of 3.6 kg/s, where it s mixed with a stream of cold water at 20C. If the mixture eaves the chamber at 42C and the pressure for all streams is 200 kPa, determine (a) the mass flow ate of the cold water and (b) the rate of entropy generation during this mixing process.

Question
A hot-water stream at 70C enters an adiabatic mixing
chamber with a mass flow rate of 3.6 kg/s, where it
is mixed with a stream of cold water at 20C. If the mixture
leaves the chamber at 42C and the pressure
for all streams is 200 kPa, determine (a) the mass flow
rate of the cold water and (b) the rate of entropy
generation during this mixing process.
