Two rigid tanks are connected by a valve. Tank A is insulated and contains 0.3 m3 of steam at 400 kPa and 60% quality. Tank B is uninsulated and contains 2 kg of steam at 200 kPa and 250°C. 3 The valve is now opened, and steam flows from tank A to tank B until the pressure in tank A drops to 200 kPa. During this process, 300 kJ of heat is transferred from tank B to the surroundings at 17°C. Assuming the steam remaining inside tank A to have undergone a reversible adiabatic process, determine (a) final temperature in each tank and (b) entropy generated during this process.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

Refrigerant 134a enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state as saturated vapor at -26°c with a volumetric flow rate of 0.18 m3/s. refrigerant exits at 9 bar, 70°c. changes in kinetic and potential energy from inlet to exit can be ignored. determine the volumetric flow rate at the exit, in m3/s, and the compressor power, in kw.
