Refrigerant-134a enters a compressor as a saturated vapor

Chapter 7, Problem 182P

(choose chapter or problem)

Refrigerant-134a enters a compressor as a saturated vapor at 160 kPa at a rate of \(0.03 \mathrm{~m}^{3} / \mathrm{s}\) and leaves at 800 kPa. The power input to the compressor is 10 kW. If the surroundings at \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) experience an entropy increase of 0.008 kW/K, determine

() the rate of heat loss from the compressor,

() the exit temperature of the refrigerant, and

() the rate of entropy generation.
