Chapter 6, Problem 6.37CU

A 300-lb iron casting, initially at 1050°F, is quenched in a tank filled with 2121 lb of oil, initially at 80°F. The iron casting and oil can be modeled as incompressible with specific heats 0.10 Btu/lb · °R, and 0.45 Btu/lb · °R, respectively. (a) For the iron casting and oil as the system,determine the final equilibrium temperature, in °F. Ignore heat transfer between the system and its surroundings. Tf = i °F (b) For the iron casting and oil as the system,determine the amount of entropy produced within the tank, in Btu/°R. Ignore heat transfer between the system and its surroundings. O = i Btu/°R Touthoolk ond Medie

The rate of entropy transfer associated with heat transfer from a closed system operating at steady state to its surroundings must be equal to the rate of entropy production due to irreversibilities within the system. O True O False eTextbook and Media Save for Later
