ANSWER:

Problem 134P

Oxygen enters an insulated 12-cm-diameter  pipe with a velocity of 70 m/s. At the pipe entrance, the oxygen is at 240 kPa and 20; and, at the exit, it is at 200 kPa and 18. Calculate the rate at which entropy is generated in the pipe.

                                                              Step by Step Solution

Step 1 of 4

Given

Diameter of the pipe D = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Velocity at inlet of the pipe  = 70 m/s

Pressure of  at inlet of the pipe  = 240 kPa

Temperature of  at inlet  = 20

=(20 + 273) K

 = 293 K

Pressure of  at exit of the pipe   = 200 kPa

Temperature of  at exit of pipe   = 18

= (18 + 273) K

  = 291 K
