(8.77/8.

60) A 4 L jug of milk at 25°C is placed in your refrigerator where it is cooled down to the
refrigerators inside constant temperature of 5°C. Assume the milk has the property of liquid water and
find the entropy generated in the cooling process.

(8.81/8.67) Find the total work and the heat engine can give out as it receives energy from the rock bed
as described in problem (7.61/7.63) : Write entropy balance equation for the control volume that is the
combination of the rock bed and the heat engine.

(8.83/8.65) A 12 kg steel container has 0.2 kg superheated water vapor at 1000 kPa, both at 200oC. The
total mass is now cooled to ambient temperature 30oC. How much heat transfer was taken out and what
is the total entropy generation?
(8.128/155) Two tanks contain steam, and they are both connected to a piston/cylinder as shown in Fig.
Initially the piston is at the bottom, and the mass of the piston is such that a pressure of 1.4 MPa below
it will be able to lift it. Steam in A has a mass of 4 kg at 7 MPa and 7000C, and B has 2 kg at 3 MPa,
3500C. The two valves are opened and water comes to a uniform state. Find the final temperature and
total entropy generation.

(8.130/8.150) Water in a piston/cylinder is at 1 MPa, 500°C. There are two stops, a lower one at which
Vmin = 1 m3 and an upper one at Vmax = 3 m3. The piston is loaded with a mass and outside atmosphere
such that it floats when the pressure is 500 kPa. This setup is now cooled to 100°C by rejecting heat to
the surroundings at 20°C. Find the total entropy generated in the process.
