Example 6.3-33. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------An insulated tank (V = 1.6628 L) is divided into two equal parts by a thin partition. On the
left is an ideal gas at 100 kP and 500 K; on the right is vacuum. The partition is ruptures and
the gas expands to fill the entire tank. Determine suniv for the process.

Since s is a property of the system, it depends only on the final state and the initial state, not
on the process. To calculate suniv, we choose a reversible path by which the system goes
from the same initial state to the same final state as the real system. Applying the energy
balance with negligible change in kinetic and potential energies to this reversible process, we
have:

When there is no heat transfer and no irreversibilities within the control volume, the unit
mass passes through the control volume isentropically (no change in entropy).
Example 6.4-14. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Steam enters a turbine with a pressure of 30 bar, a temperature of 400oC, and a velocity of
160 m/s. Saturated vapor at 100oC exits with a velocity of 100 m/s. At steady state, the
turbine develops work equal to 540 kJ per kg of steam flowing through the turbine. Heat
transfer between the turbine and its surroundings occurs at an average outer surface
temperature of 350 K. Determine the rate at which entropy is produced within the turbine per
kg of steam flowing, in kJ/kg K. Neglect the change in potential energy between inlet and
exit.

The temperature of the burning fuel is 1100oC, and cooling water is available at 15oC. The
steam leaving the boiler is at 20 bar and 700oC, and the condenser produces a saturated liquid
at 0.2 bar. The steam lines are well insulated, the turbine and pump operate reversibly and
adiabatically, and some of the mechanical work generated by the turbine is used to drive the
pump. The steam leaving the turbine is superheated vapor and the steam leaving the
condenser is saturated liquid.

Example 6.4-57. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Components of a heat pump for supplying heated air to a dwelling are shown in the
schematic below. At steady state, Refrigerant 22 enters the compressor at 5C, 3.5 bar and
is compressed adiabatically to 75C, 14 bar. From the compressor, the refrigerant passes
through the condenser, where it condenses to liquid at 28C, 14 bar. The refrigerant then
expands through a throttling valve to 3.5 bar. The states of the refrigerant are shown on the
accompanying Ts diagram. Return air from the dwelling enters the condenser at 20C, 1 bar
with a volumetric flow rate of 0.42m3/s and exits at 50C with a negligible change in
pressure. Using the ideal gas model for the air and neglecting kinetic and potential energy
effects, (a) determine the rates of entropy production, in kW/K, for control volumes
enclosing the condenser, compressor, and expansion valve, respectively. (b) Discuss the
sources of irreversibility in the components considered in part (a).

Solving with numerical values for the entropy production in the condenser, we obtain

Valve: Entropy balance around the valve gives

Solving with numerical values for the entropy production in the valve, we obtain
