Steam expands in a turbine steadily at a rate of 40,000 kg/h, entering at 8 MPa and 500 °C and leaving at 40 kPa as saturated vapor. If the power generated by the turbine is 8.2 MW, determine the rate of entropy generation in KW/K for this process. Assume the surrounding medium is at 25 °C.

2. A large slab of concrete, 5 × 8 × 0.3 m, is used as a thermal storage mass in a solar-heated house. If the slab cools overnight from 23 °C to 18 °C in an 18 ° C house, what is the net entropy change associated with this process? at jadi qmuq
please help with following problems: (a) Determine the heat exchanged between the piston/cylinder and the heatreservoir in kJ. Is heat added to the system or rejected to the heatreservoir? (b) Determine the change of entropy of the system in kJ/K. Is the resultreasonable? (c) Determine the entropy generation in kJ/K (change of entropy of thesystem+entropy change of the heat reservoir).

! Required information NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. Five kilograms of air at 427°C and 600 kPa are contained in a piston-cylinder device. The air expands adiabatically until the pressure is 100 kPa and produces 450 kJ of work output. Assume air has constant specific heats evaluated at 300 K. Determine the entropy change of the air in kJ/kg-K. Use the table containing the ideal gas specific heats of various common gases. (You must provide an answer before moving on to the next part.) The entropy change of the air is kJ/kg-K.
A reversible non-flow, constant volume process decreases the internal energy by 315 kJ for 2.5 kg of gas for which R = 430 J/kg-K and k = 1.35. For the process, determine: a) the work; b) the heat; c) the change in total entropy. The initial temperature the gas is 205 °C.
Oxygen with mass m = (0.08kg) in V1 volume has transformed into V2 = (V1 / 4) by isothermal compression. Later, oxygen was heated at constant pressure and its volume turned into V3 = (5V2). Plot this process on a p-V graph and calculate the total entropy change. (consider oxygen the ideal gas.) (molar heat capacity of oxygen at a constant volume Cv = (5/2) R)
An insulated piston-cylinder device initially contains 1.8 kg of Argon at 100 kPa and 300 K. Now an electric resistor placed in the tank is turned on for 6 minutes until the (Volume2 = 2.3*Volume1).What is the total entropy generation "Sgen" during this process (kJ/K)? Assuming the surroundings to be at 25 °C.
