Transcribed Image Text:A fan drawing electricity at a rate of 1.5 kW is located within a rigid enclosure. The length, width
and height of the enclosure are respectively equal to 5 m, 4 m, and 3 m. The enclosure is filled
with air initially at T₁ = 27 °C, P₁ = 0.1 MPa and u₁ = 214.07 kJ/kg. The fan operates steadily for
30 minutes.
