Question
A piston-cylinder device as shown in Figure 1-7, initially contains 0.75 kg of refrigerant-
134a at 120 kPa and 20°C. Heat is now transferred to the refrigerant from a source at
150°C, and the piston, which is resting on a set of stops, starts moving when the pressure
inside reaches 140 kPa. Heat transfer continues until the temperature reaches 90°C.
Assuming the surroundings to be at 25°C and 100 kPa, determine:
(a) the work done,
(b) the heat transfer,
(c) the exergy destroyed,
(d) the second law efficiency of this process.
