Refrigerant-134a is condensed in a refrigeration system by rejecting heat to ambient air at 25°C. R-134a enters the condenser at 700 kPa and 50°C at a rate of 0.05 kg/s and leaves at the same pressure as a saturated liquid. Determine the rate of exergy destruction in the condenser.
Consider a family of four, with each person taking a 6-min shower every morning. The average flow rate through the shower head is 10 L/min. City water at 15°C is heated to 55°C in an electric water heater and tempered to 42°C by cold water at the T-elbow of the shower before being routed to the shower head. Determine the amount of exergy destroyed by this family per year as a result of taking daily showers. Take T0 = 25°C.
A heat pump unit operates between two heat reservoirs with temperatures of 270
and 330 K. The heat pump itself has a temperature of 255 K during heat addition
from the 270 K reservoir and a temperature of 350K during heat rejection to the
330 K reservoir. The COP of the actual unit is 3.40, and the heat-transfer rate
from the 270 K reservoir is 2000 kJ/min. Determine the entropy production rate, in
kJ/min · K, for
a. the heat pump unit itself
b. the low-temperature heat-transfer process
c. the high-temperature heat-transfer process
d. Which process has the largest irreversibility?

actual COP to 3.10. Again, determine the entropy production rate for
e. the refrigeration unit itself
f. the low-temperature heat-transfer process
g. the high-temperature heat-transfer process
h. Which process now has the largest irreversibility?
