Refrigerant -134 a enters the evaporator of a refrigerator as saturated vapor at −20∘ C and leaves at −10∘ C and 100 kPa. The volumetric flow rate at the inlet is 0.25 m 3/s Calculate the mass flow rate.
A steady-state air compressor is used to provide compressed air for an auto shop. Air from the environment at 25 °C, 101 kPa is compressed to 404 kPa in the compressor. If this is a reversible, adiabatic process, how much work is required per kg of air? Assume air behaves like an ideal gas and specific heats are constant.

Q6: 1. Entropy generation is also used to establish criteria for the performance of engineering devices. Explain this point. 2. A well-insulated rigid tank contains 4 kg of a saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water at 250 kPa. Initially, three-quarters of the mass is in the liquid phase. An electric resistance heater placed in the tank is now turned on and kept on until all the liquid in the tank is vaporized. Determine the entropy change of the steam during this process. 3. Refrigerant-134a at 1 MPa and 100 °C is throttled to a pressure of 0.8 MPa. Determine the reversible work and exergy destroyed during this throttling process.

Q6. A small size cooling tower is designed to cool 400kg of water per minute. The water enters the tower at 43.5°C. The air enters the tower at 18.5°C and 60% R.H. and leaves the tower at 27°C and in saturated condition. The motor driven fan forces 600m² of air per minute through the tower while using 4kW of power. Determine: (i) Temperature of the water coming out of the tower. Make-up water required per hour (ii)
