Refrigerant-134a enters a compressor as a saturated vapor at 160 kpa at a rate of 0.03 m3/s and leaves at 800 kpa. the power input to the compressor is 10 kw. if the surroundings at 20°c experience an entropy increase of 0.008 kw/k, determine (a) the rate of heat loss from the compressor, (b) the exit temperature of the refrigerant, and (c) the rate of entropy generation.

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
