Chapter 7 ENTROPY

Entropy and the Increase of Entropy Principle

7-1C Yes. Because we used the relation (QH/TH) = (QL/TL) in the proof, which is the defining relation of absolute temperature.

7-2C No. The Q represents the net heat transfer during a cycle, which could be positive.

7-3C Yes.

7-4C No. A system may reject more (or less) heat than it receives during a cycle. The steam in a steampower plant, for example, receives more heat than it rejects during a cycle.

7-5C No. A system may produce more (or less) work than it receives during a cycle. A steam power plant, for example, produces more work than it receives during a cycle, the difference being the net work output.

7-6C The entropy change will be the same for both cases since entropy is a property and it has a fixedvalue at a fixed state.

7-7C No. In general, that integral will have a different value for different processes. However, it will havethe same value for all reversible processes.

7-8C Yes.

7-9C That integral should be performed along a reversible path to determine the entropy change.

7-10C No. An isothermal process can be irreversible. Example: A system that involves paddle-wheel workwhile losing an equivalent amount of heat.

7-11C The value of this integral is always larger for reversible processes.

7-12C No. Because the entropy of the surrounding air increases even more during that process, makingthe total entropy change positive.

7-13C It is possible to create entropy, but it is not possible to destroy it.

7-17C Increase.

7-18C Increases.

7-19C Decreases.

7-20C Sometimes.

7-21C Yes. This will happen when the system is losing heat, and the decrease in entropy as a result of thisheat loss is equal to the increase in entropy as a result of irreversibilities.

7-22C They are heat transfer, irreversibilities, and entropy transport with mass.

7-23C Greater than.

7-24 A rigid tank contains an ideal gas that is being stirred by a paddle wheel. The temperature of the gasremains constant as a result of heat transfer out. The entropy change of the gas is to be determined.Assumptions The gas in the tank is given to be an ideal gas.Analysis The temperature and the specific volume of the gas remainconstant during this process. Therefore, the initial and the final states of the gas are the same. Then s2 = s1 since entropy is a property.Therefore, 200 kJ

7-25 Air is compressed steadily by a compressor. The air temperature is maintained constant by heatrejection to the surroundings. The rate of entropy change of air is to be determined.Assumptions 1 This is a steady-flow process since there is no change with time. 2 Kinetic and potentialenergy changes are negligible. 3 Air is an ideal gas. 4 The process involves no internal irreversibilities such as friction, and thus it is an isothermal, internally reversible process.Properties Noting that h = h(T) for ideal gases, we have h1 = h2 since T1 = T2 = 25 C.Analysis We take the compressor as the system. Noting that the enthalpy of air remains constant, the energy balance for this steady-flow system can be expressed in the rate form as

This is expected since all processes of the Carnot cycle are reversible processes, and no entropy isgenerated during a reversible process.

7-29 R-134a enters an evaporator as a saturated liquid-vapor at a specified pressure. Heat is transferred tothe refrigerant from the cooled space, and the liquid is vaporized. The entropy change of the refrigerant, the entropy change of the cooled space, and the total entropy change for this process are to be determined.Assumptions 1 Both the refrigerant and the cooled space involve no internal irreversibilities such asfriction. 2 Any temperature change occurs within the wall of the tube, and thus both the refrigerant and thecooled space remain isothermal during this process. Thus it is an isothermal, internally reversible process.Analysis Noting that both the refrigerant and the cooled space undergo reversible isothermal processes, the entropy change for them can be determined from

S QT

(a) The pressure of the refrigerant is maintained constant. Therefore, the temperature of the refrigerant also remains constant at the saturation value,

7-63C The Pr and vr are called relative pressure and relative specific volume, respectively. They are derived for isentropic processes of ideal gases, and thus their use is limited to isentropic processes only.

7-64C The entropy of a gas can change during an isothermal process since entropy of an ideal gas depends on the pressure as well as the temperature.

7-65C The entropy change relations of an ideal gas simplify tos = cp ln(T2/T1) for a constant pressure process

and s = cv ln(T2/T1) for a constant volume process.

Noting that cp > cv, the entropy change will be larger for a constant pressure process.

Reversible Steady-Flow Work

7-87C The work associated with steady-flow devices is proportional to the specific volume of the gas. Cooling a gas during compression will reduce its specific volume, and thus the power consumed by thecompressor.

7-88C Cooling the steam as it expands in a turbine will reduce its specific volume, and thus the workoutput of the turbine. Therefore, this is not a good proposal.

7-89C We would not support this proposal since the steady-flow work input to the pump is proportional tothe specific volume of the liquid, and cooling will not affect the specific volume of a liquid significantly.

7-90 Liquid water is pumped reversibly to a specified pressure at a specified rate. The power input to thepump is to be determined.Assumptions 1 Liquid water is an incompressible substance. 2 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 3 The process is reversible.Properties The specific volume of saturated liquid water at 20 kPa is v1 = vf @ 20 kPa = 0.001017 m3/kg(Table A-5).

The reduction in the exit temperature of the compressedair and the compressor power saved are to be determined.Assumptions 1 Air is an ideal gas with variable specific heats. 2 The process is reversible. 3 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 3 Air is compressed isentropically. 4 Water vaporizes completelybefore leaving the compressor. 4 Air properties can be used for the air-vapor mixture.Properties The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K (Table A-1).

When water is sprayed, we first need to check the accuracy of the assumption that the water vaporizes completely in the compressor. In thelimiting case, the compression will be isothermal at the compressor inlettemperature, and the water will be a saturated vapor. To avoid thecomplexity of dealing with two fluid streams and a gas mixture, we disregard water in the air stream (other than the mass flow rate), andassume air is cooled by an amount equal to the enthalpy change of water.

This corresponds to maximum cooling from the air since, at constant temperature, h = 0 and thus, which is close to 490.8 kW. Therefore, the assumption that all the water vaporizes

is approximately valid. Then the reduction in required power input due to water spray becomeskW3.449inout WQ

Discussion (can be ignored): At constant temperature, h = 0 and thus corresponds to maximum cooling from the air, which is less than 490.8 kW. Therefore, the assumption that all the watervaporizes is only roughly valid. As an alternative, we can assume the compression process to be polytropicand the water to be a saturated vapor at the compressor exit temperature, and disregard the remainingliquid. But in this case there is not a unique solution, and we will have to select either the amount of water or the exit temperature or the polytropic exponent to obtain a solution. Of course we can also tabulate theresults for different cases, and then make a selection.

Note that selecting a different compressor exit temperature T2 will result in different values.

7-100 A water-injected compressor is used in a gas turbine power plant. It is claimed that the power outputof a gas turbine will increase when water is injected into the compressor because of the increase in the mass flow rate of the gas (air + water vapor) through the turbine. This, however, is not necessarily rightsince the compressed air in this case enters the combustor at a low temperature, and thus it absorbs muchmore heat. In fact, the cooling effect will most likely dominate and cause the cyclic efficiency to drop.

Isentropic Efficiencies of Steady-Flow Devices

7-102C No, because the isentropic process is not the model or ideal process for compressors that are cooled intentionally.

7-103C Yes. Because the entropy of the fluid must increase during an actual adiabatic process as a result of irreversibilities. Therefore, the actual exit state has to be on the right-hand side of the isentropic exitstate

7-104 Steam enters an adiabatic turbine with an isentropic efficiency of 0.90 at a specified state with a specified mass flow rate, and leaves at a specified pressure. The turbine exit temperature and power outputof the turbine are to be determined.Assumptions 1 This is a steady-flow process since there is no change with time. 2 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 3The device is adiabatic and thus heat transfer is negligible.Analysis (a) From the steam tables (Tables A-4 through A-6),

Reversible Steady-Flow Work

7-87C The work associated with steady-flow devices is proportional to the specific volume of the gas. Cooling a gas during compression will reduce its specific volume, and thus the power consumed by thecompressor.

7-88C Cooling the steam as it expands in a turbine will reduce its specific volume, and thus the workoutput of the turbine. Therefore, this is not a good proposal.

7-89C We would not support this proposal since the steady-flow work input to the pump is proportional tothe specific volume of the liquid, and cooling will not affect the specific volume of a liquid significantly.

7-90 Liquid water is pumped reversibly to a specified pressure at a specified rate. The power input to thepump is to be determined.Assumptions 1 Liquid water is an incompressible substance. 2 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 3 The process is reversible.Properties The specific volume of saturated liquid water at 20 kPa is v1 = vf @ 20 kPa = 0.001017 m3/kg(Table A-5).

When water is sprayed, we first need to check the accuracy of the assumption that the water vaporizes completely in the compressor. In thelimiting case, the compression will be isothermal at the compressor inlettemperature, and the water will be a saturated vapor. To avoid thecomplexity of dealing with two fluid streams and a gas mixture, we disregard water in the air stream (other than the mass flow rate), andassume air is cooled by an amount equal to the enthalpy change of water.

This corresponds to maximum cooling from the air since, at constant temperature, h = 0 and thus, which is close to 490.8 kW. Therefore, the assumption that all the water vaporizes

is approximately valid. Then the reduction in required power input due to water spray becomeskW3.449inout WQ

Discussion (can be ignored): At constant temperature, h = 0 and thus corresponds to maximum cooling from the air, which is less than 490.8 kW. Therefore, the assumption that all the watervaporizes is only roughly valid. As an alternative, we can assume the compression process to be polytropicand the water to be a saturated vapor at the compressor exit temperature, and disregard the remainingliquid. But in this case there is not a unique solution, and we will have to select either the amount of water or the exit temperature or the polytropic exponent to obtain a solution. Of course we can also tabulate theresults for different cases, and then make a selection.

Note that selecting a different compressor exit temperature T2 will result in different values.

7-100 A water-injected compressor is used in a gas turbine power plant. It is claimed that the power outputof a gas turbine will increase when water is injected into the compressor because of the increase in the mass flow rate of the gas (air + water vapor) through the turbine. This, however, is not necessarily rightsince the compressed air in this case enters the combustor at a low temperature, and thus it absorbs muchmore heat. In fact, the cooling effect will most likely dominate and cause the cyclic efficiency to drop.

7-102C No, because the isentropic process is not the model or ideal process for compressors that are cooled intentionally.

7-103C Yes. Because the entropy of the fluid must increase during an actual adiabatic process as a result of irreversibilities. Therefore, the actual exit state has to be on the right-hand side of the isentropic exitstate

7-104 Steam enters an adiabatic turbine with an isentropic efficiency of 0.90 at a specified state with a specified mass flow rate, and leaves at a specified pressure. The turbine exit temperature and power outputof the turbine are to be determined.Assumptions 1 This is a steady-flow process since there is no change with time. 2 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 3The device is adiabatic and thus heat transfer is negligible.Analysis (a) From the steam tables (Tables A-4 through A-6),

Special Topic: Reducing the Cost of Compressed Air

7-150 The total installed power of compressed air systems in the US is estimated to be about 20 millionhorsepower. The amount of energy and money that will be saved per year if the energy consumed by compressors is reduced by 5 percent is to be determined.

Then the energy and cost savings corresponding to a 5% reduction inenergy use for compressed air become

Energy Savings = (Energy consumed)(Fraction saved)

= (5.125 1010 kWh)(0.05)

= 2.563 109 kWh/year

Cost Savings = (Energy savings)(Unit cost of energy)

= (2.563 109 kWh/year)($0.07/kWh)

= $0.179 109 /year

Therefore, reducing the energy usage of compressors by 5% will save $179 million a year.

7-151 The total energy used to compress air in the US is estimated to be 0.5 1015 kJ per year. About 20% of the compressed air is estimated to be lost by air leaks. The amount and cost of electricity wasted per year due to air leaks is to be determined.

Assumptions About 20% of the compressed air is lost by air leaks.

Analysis The electrical energy and money wasted by air leaks are

Energy wasted = (Energy consumed)(Fraction wasted)

= (0.5 1015 kJ)(1 kWh/3600 kJ)(0.20)

= 27.78 109 kWh/year

Money wasted = (Energy wasted)(Unit cost of energy)

= (27.78 109 kWh/year)($0.07/kWh)

Page 102: Thermo solutions chapter07

7-108

= $1.945 109 /year

Therefore, air leaks are costing almost $2 billion a year in electricity costs. The environment also suffersfrom this because of the pollution associated with the generation of this much electricity.

7-152 The compressed air requirements of a plant is being met by a 125 hp compressor that compresses airfrom 101.3 kPa to 900 kPa. The amount of energy and money saved by reducing the pressure setting of compressed air to 750 kPa is to be determined.

Assumptions 1 Air is an ideal gas with constant specific heats. 2 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 3 The load factor of the compressor is given to be 0.75. 4 The pressures given are absolute pressure rather than gage pressure.

Properties The specific heat ratio of air is k = 1.4 (Table A-2).

Analysis The electrical energy consumed by this compressor per year is

Energy consumed = (Power rating)(Load factor)(Annual Operating Hours)/Motor efficiency

= (125 hp)(0.746 kW/hp)(0.75)(3500 hours/year)/0.88

That is, reducing the pressure setting will result in about 11 percent savings from the energy consumed by the compressor and the associated cost. Therefore, the energy and cost savings in this case become

Energy Savings = (Energy consumed)(Power reduction factor)

= (278,160 kWh/year)(0.1093)

= 30,410 kWh/year

Cost Savings = (Energy savings)(Unit cost of energy)

= (30,410 kWh/year)($0.085/kWh)

= $2585/year

Therefore, reducing the pressure setting by 150 kPa will result in annual savings of 30.410 kWh that is worth $2585 in this case.

Discussion Some applications require very low pressure compressed air. In such cases the need can be met by a blower instead of a compressor. Considerable energy can be saved in this manner, since a blowerrequires a small fraction of the power needed by a compressor for a specified mass flow rate.

7-153 A 150 hp compressor in an industrial facility is housed inside the production area where the average temperature during operating hours is 25 C. The amounts of energy and money saved as a result of drawing cooler outside air to the compressor instead of using the inside air are to be determined.

Assumptions 1 Air is an ideal gas with constant specific heats. 2 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.

Also,

The fraction of energy saved as a result of drawing in cooler outside air is

.

That is, drawing in air which is 15 C cooler will result in 5.03 percent savings from the energy consumedby the compressor and the associated cost. Therefore, the energy and cost savings in this case become

Energy Savings = (Energy consumed)(Power reduction factor)

= (475,384 kWh/year)(0.0503)

= 23,929 kWh/year

Cost Savings = (Energy savings)(Unit cost of energy)

= (23,929 kWh/year)($0.07/kWh)

= $1675/year

Therefore, drawing air in from the outside will result in annual savings of 23,929 kWh, which is worth $1675 in this case.

Discussion The price of a typical 150 hp compressor is much lower than $50,000. Therefore, it isinteresting to note that the cost of energy a compressor uses a year may be more than the cost of the compressor itself.

The implementation of this measure requires the installation of an ordinary sheet metal or PVCduct from the compressor intake to the outside. The installation cost associated with this measure isrelatively low, and the pressure drop in the duct in most cases is negligible. About half of themanufacturing facilities we have visited, especially the newer ones, have the duct from the compressorintake to the outside in place, and they are already taking advantage of the savings associated with this measure.

7-154 The compressed air requirements of the facility during 60 percent of the time can be met by a 25 hpreciprocating compressor instead of the existing 100 hp compressor. The amounts of energy and money saved as a result of switching to the 25 hp compressor during 60 percent of the time are to be determined.

Analysis Noting that 1 hp = 0.746 kW, the electrical energy consumed by each compressor per year isdetermined from

(Energy consumed)Large = (Power)(Hours)[(LFxTF/ motor)Unloaded + (LFxTF/ motor)Loaded]

= (100 hp)(0.746 kW/hp)(3800 hours/year)[0.35 0.6/0.82+0.90 0.4/0.9]

= 185,990 kWh/year

(Energy consumed)Small =(Power)(Hours)[(LFxTF/ motor)Unloaded + (LFxTF/ motor)Loaded]

= 65,031 kWh/year

Therefore, the energy and cost savings in this case become

Energy Savings = (Energy consumed)Large- (Energy consumed)Small

= 185,990 - 65,031 kWh/year

= 120,959 kWh/year

Cost Savings = (Energy savings)(Unit cost of energy)

= (120,959 kWh/year)($0.075/kWh)

= $9,072/year

Discussion Note that utilizing a small compressor during the times of reduced compressed air requirementsand shutting down the large compressor will result in annual savings of 120,959 kWh, which is worth $9,072 in this case.

7-155 A facility stops production for one hour every day, including weekends, for lunch break, but the 125 hp compressor is kept operating. If the compressor consumes 35 percent of the rated power when idling,the amounts of energy and money saved per year as a result of turning the compressor off during lunchbreak are to be determined.

Analysis It seems like the compressor in this facility is kept on unnecessarily for one hour a day and thus 365 hours a year, and the idle factor is 0.35. Then the energy and cost savings associated with turning thecompressor off during lunch break are determined to be

Energy Savings = (Power Rating)(Turned Off Hours)(Idle Factor)/ motor

= (125 hp)(0.746 kW/hp)(365 hours/year)(0.35)/0.84

= 14,182 kWh/year

Cost Savings = (Energy savings)(Unit cost of energy)

= $1,276/year

Discussion Note that the simple practice of turning the compressor offduring lunch break will save this facility $1,276 a year in energy costs. There are also side benefits such as extending the life of the motor andthe compressor, and reducing the maintenance costs.

7-156 It is determined that 40 percent of the energy input to the compressor is removed from thecompressed air as heat in the aftercooler with a refrigeration unit whose COP is 3.5. The amounts of theenergy and money saved per year as a result of cooling the compressed air before it enters the refrigerated dryer are to be determined.

Assumptions The compressor operates at full load when operating.

Analysis Noting that 40 percent of the energy input to the compressor is removed by the aftercooler, therate of heat removal from the compressed air in the aftercooler under full load conditions is

The compressor is said to operate at full load for 1600 hours ayear, and the COP of the refrigeration unit is 3.5. Then the energy and cost savings associated with this measure become

Energy Savings = ( )(Annual Operating Hours)/COPQaftercooling

= (44.76 kW)(1600 hours/year)/3.5

= 20,462 kWh/year

Cost Savings = (Energy savings)(Unit cost of energy saved)

= (20,462 kWh/year)($0.06/kWh)

= $1227/year

Discussion Note that the aftercooler will save this facility 20,462 kWh of electrical energy worth $1227 per year. The actual savings will be less than indicated above since we have not considered the power consumed by the fans and/or pumps of the aftercooler. However, if the heat removed by the aftercooler isutilized for some useful purpose such as space heating or process heating, then the actual savings will bemuch more.

7-157 The motor of a 150 hp compressor is burned out and is to be replaced by either a 93% efficientstandard motor or a 96.2% efficient high efficiency motor. It is to be determined if the savings from thehigh efficiency motor justify the price differential.

Assumptions 1 The compressor operates at full load when operating. 2 The life of the motors is 10 years. 3There are no rebates involved. 4 The price of electricity remains constant.

Analysis The energy and cost savings associated with the installation of the high efficiency motor in thiscase are determined to be

Energy Savings = (Power Rating)(Operating Hours)(Load Factor)(1/ standard - 1/ efficient)

= (150 hp)(0.746 kW/hp)(4,368 hours/year)(1.0)(1/0.930 - 1/0.962)

= (17,483 kWh/year)($0.075/kWh)

= $1311/year

The additional cost of the energy efficient motor is

Page 108: Thermo solutions chapter07

7-114

Cost Differential = $10,942 - $9,031 = $1,911

Discussion The money saved by the high efficiency motor will pay for this cost difference in$1,911/$1311 = 1.5 years, and will continue saving the facility money for the rest of the 10 years of its lifetime. Therefore, the use of the high efficiency motor is recommended in this case even in the absence of any incentives from the local utility company.

7-158 The compressor of a facility is being cooled by air in a heat-exchanger. This air is to be used to heatthe facility in winter. The amount of money that will be saved by diverting the compressor waste heat into the facility during the heating season is to be determined.

Assumptions The compressor operates at full load when operating.

Analysis Assuming operation at sea level and taking the density of air to be 1.2 kg/m3, the mass flow rate of air through the liquid-to-air heat exchanger is determined to be

Mass flow rate of air = (Density of air)(Average velocity)(Flow area)

= (1.2 kg/m3)(3 m/s)(1.0 m2)

= 3.6 kg/s = 12,960 kg/h

Noting that the temperature rise of air is 32 C, the rate at which heat can be recovered (or the rate at which heat is transferred to air) is

Rate of Heat Recovery = (Mass flow rate of air)(Specific heat of air)(Temperature rise)

= (12,960 kg/h)(1.0 kJ/kg. C)(32 C)

= 414,720 kJ/h

The number of operating hours of this compressor during theheating season is

Operating hours = (20 hours/day)(5 days/week)(26 weeks/year)

= 2600 hours/year

Then the annual energy and cost savings become

Energy Savings = (Rate of Heat Recovery)(Annual Operating Hours)/Efficiency

Cost Savings = (Energy savings)(Unit cost of energy saved)

= (12,776 therms/year)($1.0/therm)

= $12,776/year

Therefore, utilizing the waste heat from the compressor will save $12,776 per year from the heating costs.

Discussion The implementation of this measure requires the installation of an ordinary sheet metal ductfrom the outlet of the heat exchanger into the building. The installation cost associated with this measure is relatively low. A few of the manufacturing facilities we have visited already have this conservation systemin place. A damper is used to direct the air into the building in winter and to the ambient in summer.

Combined compressor/heat-recovery systems are available in the market for both air-cooled (greater than 50 hp) and water cooled (greater than 125 hp) systems.

7-159 The compressed air lines in a facility are maintained at a gage pressure of 850 kPa at a location where the atmospheric pressure is 85.6 kPa. There is a 5-mm diameter hole on the compressed air line. The energy and money saved per year by sealing the hole on the compressed air line.

Assumptions 1 Air is an ideal gas with constant specific heats. 2 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.

Properties The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K. The specific heat ratio of air is k = 1.4 (Table A-2).

Analysis Disregarding any pressure losses and noting that the absolute pressure is the sum of the gagepressure and the atmospheric pressure, the work needed to compress a unit mass of air at 15 C from the atmospheric pressure of 85.6 kPa to 850+85.6 = 935.6 kPa is determined to be

The final temperature of thehelium, the final volume of the nitrogen, the heat transferred to the nitrogen, and the entropy generationduring this process are to be determined.

Assumptions 1 Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 2 Nitrogen and helium are ideal gaseswith constant specific heats at room temperature. 3 The piston is adiabatic and frictionless.

7-191 EES Problem 7-190 is reconsidered. The effect of the state of the steam at the inlet to the feedwaterheater is to be investigated. The entropy of the extraction steam is assumed to be constant at the value for 1MPa, 200°C, and the extraction steam pressure is to be varied from 1 MPa to 100 kPa. Both the ratio of themass flow rates of the extracted steam and the feedwater heater and the total entropy change for thisprocess per unit mass of the feedwater are to be plotted as functions of the extraction pressure. Analysis The problem is solved using EES, and the results are tabulated and plotted below.

7-199 A room is to be heated by hot water contained in a tank placed in the room. The minimum initial temperature of the water needed to meet the heating requirements of this room for a 24-h period and theentropy generated are to be determined.Assumptions 1 Water is an incompressible substance with constant specific heats. 2 Air is an ideal gas withconstant specific heats. 3 The energy stored in the container itself is negligible relative to the energy storedin water. 4 The room is maintained at 20°C at all times. 5 The hot water is to meet the heatingrequirements of this room for a 24-h period.Properties The specific heat of water at room temperature is c = 4.18 kJ/kg·°C (Table A-3).Analysis Heat loss from the room during a 24-h period is

Qloss = (10,000 kJ/h)(24 h) = 240,000 kJ Taking the contents of the room, including the water, as our system, the energy balance can be written as

where T1 is the temperature of the water when it is first brought into the room.(b) We take the house as the system, which is a closed system. The entropy generated during this process isdetermined by applying the entropy balance on an extended system that includes the house and itsimmediate surroundings so that the boundary temperature of the extended system is the temperature of thesurroundings at all times.

The melting temperatureand the heat of fusion of ice at 1 atm are 0 C and 333.7 kJ/kg.Analysis (a) We take the contents of the cylinder (ice and saturated water) as our system, which is a closedsystem.

The amount of heat transfer through the wall of the bottle when thermal and mechanicalequilibrium is established and the amount of entropy generated are to be determined.Assumptions 1 This is an unsteady process since the conditions within the device are changing during theprocess, but it can be analyzed as a uniform-flow process since the state of fluid at the inlet remainsconstant. 2 Air is an ideal gas. 3 Kinetic and potential energies are negligible. 4 There are no work interactions involved. 5 The direction of heat transfer is to the air in the bottle (will be verified).Properties The gas constant of air is 0.287 kPa.m3/kg.K (Table A-1).Analysis We take the bottle as the system, which is a control volume since mass crosses the boundary.Noting that the microscopic energies of flowing and nonflowing fluids are represented by enthalpy h andinternal energy u, respectively, the mass and energy balances for this uniform-flow system can be expressed as Mass balance: )0(since initialout2systemoutin mmmmmmm i

The reduction in power input and entropy generation as a result of installing a 50% efficient regenerator are also to be determined.Assumptions 1 This is a steady-flow process since there is no change with time at any point within the system and thus m ECV CV and0 0 . 2 Water is an incompressible substance with constant specific heats. 3 The kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible, ke pe 0 . 4 Heat losses from the pipe are negligible.Properties The density of water is given to be = 1 kg/L.
