?Fifty (50) \(\mathrm{mol} \cdot \mathrm{s}^{-}\) of enriched air (50 mol-%

Chapter 10, Problem 10.38

(choose chapter or problem)

Fifty (50) \(\mathrm{mol} \cdot \mathrm{s}^{-}\) of enriched air (50 mol-% \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\), 50 mol-% \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\)) are produced by continuously combining air (79 mol-% N2, 21 mol-% \(\mathrm{N}_{2}\)) with a stream of pure oxygen. All streams are at the constant conditions T = 25°C and P = 1.2(atm). There are no moving parts.

(a) Determine the rates of air and oxygen \(\left(\mathrm{mol} \cdot \mathrm{s}^{-1}\right)\).

(b) What is the rate of heat transfer for the process?

(c) What is the rate of entropy generation \(\dot{S}_{G}\left(\mathrm{W} \cdot \mathrm{K}^{-1}\right)?\)

State all assumptions.

Suggestion: Treat the overall process as a combination of demixing and mixing steps.
