Hot exhaust gases leaving an internal combustion engine at 400oC and 150 kPa at a rate of 0.8 kg/s are to be used to produce saturated steam at 200oC in an insulated heat exchanger. Water enters the heat exchanger at the ambient temperature of 20oC, and the exhaust gases leave the hear exchanger at 350oC. Determine (a) the rate of steam production, (b) the rate of exergy destruction in the heat exchanger, and (c) the second-law efficiency of the heat exchanger.
Steam is to be condensed on the shell side of a heat exchanger at 120°F. Cooling water enters the tubes at 60°F at a rate of 115.3 lbm/s and leaves at 73°F. Assuming the heat exchanger to be well insulated, determine the rate of exergy destruction in the heat exchanger. Take T0 = 77°F

- Liquid water enters an adiabatic piping system at 15°C at a rate of 3 kg/s. It is observed that the water temperature rises by 0.3°C in the pipe due to friction.

The turbine is not adequately insulated, and it estimated that heat is lost from the turbine at a rate of 220 kW. The power output of the turbine is 4.5 MW. Assuming the surroundings to be at 25°C, determine the exergy destroyed within the turbine.arrow_forwardConsider the conditions of Problem 1, homework 5 (it is repeated below) and that the surroundings are at a temperature of 4 C. Instead of mixing the two fluids together consider the following proposal. Heat is allowed to flow from the 3 Kg mass of water through a Carnot heat engine and is rejected to the cooler mass which acts as the low temperature thermal reservoir. Determine the maximum amount of work that could be performed by the heat engine, the entropy produced, and the exergy destroyed in the 3 Kg mass during this operation. Also, determine the total entropy produced and exergy destroyed in the total system. In this case the temperature and internal energy of the mass of water is changing unlike the infinite heat reservoir case. Since the temperature of both the high temperature and low temperature heat input is changing, the Carnot efficiency is also changing.
