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
