Chapter 8, Problem 851(choose chapter or problem)
Air is compressed steadily by an 8-kW compressor from 100 kPa and 178C to 600 kPa and 1678C at a rate of 2.1 kg/min. Neglecting the changes in kinetic and potential energies, determine (a) the increase in the exergy of the air and (b) the rate of exergy destroyed during this process. Assume the surroundings to be at 178C.
