Chapter 8.8, Problem 112RP
A passive solar house that was losing heat to the outdoors at 5°C at an average rate of 50,000 kJ/h was maintained at 22°C at all times during a winter night for 10 h. The house was heated by 50 glass containers, each containing 20 L of water that was heated to 80°C during the day by absorbing solar energy. A thermostat-controlled 15-kW backup electric resistance heater turned on whenever necessary to keep the house at 22°C. Determine (a) how long the electric heating system was on that night, (b) the exergy destruction, and (c) the minimum work input required for that night, in kJ.
