Question

Long cylindrical steel rods (r = 7833 kg/m3 and
cp = 0.465 kJ/kg·8C) of 10-cm diameter are heat treated by
drawing them at a velocity of 3 m/min through a 7-m-long
oven maintained at 900C. If the rods enter the oven at 30C
and leave at 700C, determine (a) the rate of heat transfer to
the rods in the oven and (b) the rate of entropy generation
associated with this heat transfer process.
