Steam at 30 bar and 320°C enters to a mixing chamber with a rate of 50000 kg/h and mixed with water at 25 bar and 200°C. The mixture leaves the chamber as a saturated vapor at 20 bar. Neglecting the changes in kinetic and potential energies and heat loss to the surrounding, determine a) the mass flow rate of water entering the mixing chamber. b) the rate of entropy generation in the mixing chamber.

Solve the following problem: One kilogram of water contained in a piston–cylinder assembly, initially saturated vapor at 340 kPa, is condensed at constant pressure to saturated liquid. Consider an enlarged system consisting of the water and enough of the nearby surroundings that heat transfer occurs only at the ambient temperature of 25oC. Assume the state of the nearby surroundings does not change during the process, and ignore kinetic and potential energy effects. For the enlarged system, determine the heat transfer, in kJ, and the entropy production, in kJ/K.
