Question
An open feedwater heater is a direct-contact heat exchanger used in vapor power plants. Shown in the figure below are operating data for an open feedwater heater with H2O as the working fluid operating at steady state, where T1 = 41 °C.
 
Ignoring stray heat transfer from the outside of the heat exchanger to its surroundings and kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the rate of entropy production, in kW/K.
P2 =3 bar
X2 = 0.92
