QUESTION:

Heat in the amount of  is transferred directly from a hot reservoir at 1200 K to a cold reservoir at 600 K. Calculate the entropy change of the two reservoirs and determine if the increase of entropy principle is satisfied.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

Heat is transferred directly from an energy-source reservoir to an energy-sink.Refer to figure below.

The entropy change of the two reservoirs is to be calculated and it is to be determined if the increase of entropy principle is satisfied.

We will assume that the reservoirs operate steadily.
