Calculate the total rate of entropy production in
The inlet and exit temperature respectively are 20 degree Celsius and 89 degree Celsius. Also, the flow rate of pressured water is 2 kg/s. Consider Q as the heat energy, m as the mass, C as the specific heat, Tf as the exit temperature, and Ti as the inlet temperature. Also, consider P as the electrical power. Now, the rate of heat energy gives power. Thus, calculate the required electrical power.
The pressure drop in the boiler is negligible. Calculate the rate of entropy when the flow raises heat in the boiler.
