2. A piston-cylinder device contains 8 kg of refrigerant- 134a at 0.7 MPa and
60°C. The refrigerant is now cooled at constant pressure until it exists as a liquid
at 20°C. If the surroundings are at 100 kPa and 20°C, determine
(a) the exergy of the refrigerant at the initial and the final states and
(b) the exergy destroyed during this process.
Refrigerant-22 absorbs heat from a cooled space at 50°F as it flows through an evaporator of a refrigeration system. R-22 enters the evaporator at 10°F at a rate of 0.08 lbm/s with a quality of 0.3 and leaves as a saturated vapor at the same pressure. Determine the rate of exergy destruction in the evaporato.

- Please solve this problem. Thank youarrow_forwardA passive solar house that is losing heat to the outdoors at 3C at an average rate of 50,000 kJ/h is maintained at 22C at all times during a winter night for 10 h. The house is to be heated by 50 glass containers, each containing 20 L of water that is heated to 80C during the day by absorbing solar energy. A thermostat-controlled 15 kW backup electric resistance heater turns on whenever necessary to keep the house at 22C. Determine how long the electric heating system was on that night and the amount of entropy generated during the night.arrow_forwardThe compressor in a refrigerator compresses saturated R-134a vapor at 0°F to 200 psia. Calculate the work required by this compressor, in Btu/lbm, when the compression process is isentropic. Use the tables for R-134a. The work required by this compressor is Btu/lbm.arrow_forward
- The compressors of a production facility maintain the compressed-air lines at a (gauge) pressure of 700 kPa at sea level where the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. The average temperature of air is 20°C at the compressor inlet and 24°C in the compressed-air lines. The facility operates 4200 hours a year, and the average price of electricity is $0.078/kWh. Taking the compressor efficiency to be 0.8, the motor efficiency to be 0.92, and the discharge coefficient to be 0.65, determine the energy and money saved per year by sealing a leak equivalent to a 3-mm-diameter hole on the compressed-air line.arrow_forwardA well-insulated 4-m * 4-m * 5-m room initially at 10C is heated by the radiator of a steam-heating system. The radiator has a volume of 15 L and is filled with superheated vapor at 200 kPa and 200C. At this moment both the inlet and the exit valves to the radiator are closed. A 120-W fan is used to distribute the air in the room. The pressure of the steam is observed to drop to 100 kPa after 30 min as a result of heat transfer to the room. Assuming constant specific heats for air at room temperature, determine (a) the average temperature of air in 30 min, (b) the entropy change of the steam, (c) the entropy change of the air in the room, and (d) the entropy generated during this process, in kJ/K. Assume the air pressure in the room remains constant at 100 kPa at all times.arrow_forwardAn insulated piston–cylinder device contains 0.018 m3 of saturated refrigerant-134a vapor at 0.6 MPa pressure. The refrigerant is now allowed to expand in a reversible manner until the pressure drops to 0.16 MPa. Determine the change in the exergy of the refrigerant during this process and the reversible work. Assume the surroundings to be at 25°C and 100 kPa.arrow_forward
- Please include all steps and assumptionsarrow_forwardA rigid tank is divided into two equal parts by a partition. One part of the tank contains 1.5 kg of compressed liquid water at 300 kPa and 60°C and the other side is evacuated. Now the partition is removed, and the water expands to fill the entire tank. If the final pressure in the tank is 15 kPa, determine the exergy destroyed during this process. Assume the surroundings to be at 25°C and 100 kPa.arrow_forwardRefrigerant-134a at 140 kPa and 210C is compressed by an adiabatic 1.3-kW compressor to an exit state of 700 kPa and 60C. Neglecting the changes in kinetic and potential energies, determine (a) the isentropic efficiency of the compressor, (b) the volume flow rate of the refrigerant at the compressor inlet, in L/min, and (c) the maximum volume flow rate at the inlet conditions that this adiabatic 1.3-kW compressor can handle without violating the second law.arrow_forward
