Question
Q5) 1 kg of AIR at P = 100 kPa is contained in a RIGID TANK made of IRON of mass 0.5 kg. Initially, the temperature of
both the AIR and the TANK are 25°C.
a) Now, the TANK (air and the iron) is heated by an electric heater of power 100 W for 30 min. Calculate the entropy
generation Sep, during the heating process. (Heat loss to the surrounding is prevented during this process.)
Iron-0.5 kg
1 kg Air
Electric Heater
|b) Next, the tank is left to cool down in a VERY BIG room at T = 25°C. Calculate the total entropy generated Suen [kJ/K]
(both in the system and in the surrounding) during the cooling of the tank.
