Heat is lost through a plane wall steadily at a rate of 800 W. If the inner and outer surface temperatures of the wall are 20°C and 9°C, respectively, and the environment temperature is 0°C, the rate of exergy destruction within the wall is (a) 0 W (b) 11 W (c) 15 W (d) 29 W (e) 76 W
Starting with energy and entropy balances, derive the general exergy balance relation for a closed system.
Steam enters an adiabatic nozzle at 3.5 MPa and 300°C with a low velocity and leaves at 1.6 MPa and 250°C at a rate of 0.4 kg/s. If the ambient state is 100 kPa and 18°C, determine the rate of exergy destruction.
Consider two systems that are at the same pressure as the environment. The first system is at the same temperature as the environment, whereas the second system is at a lower temperature than the environment. How would you compare the exergies of these two systems?
A piston–cylinder device initially contains 1.4 kg of refrigerant-134a at 100 kPa and 20°C. Heat is now transferred to the refrigerant from a source at 150°C, and the piston, which is resting on a set of stops, starts moving when the pressure inside reaches 120 kPa. Heat transfer continues until the temperature reaches 80°C. Assuming the surroundings to be at 25°C and 100 kPa, determine the exergy destroyed.
Long cylindrical steel rods (ρ = 7833 kg/m3 and cp = 0.465 kJ/kg·°C) of 10-cm diameter are heat-treated by drawing them at a velocity of 3 m/min through a 6-m-long oven maintained at 900°C. If the rods enter the oven at 30°C and leave at 700°C, determine the rate of exergy destruction associated with this heat transfer process. Take T0 = 25°C.
When the temperature T at the location where heat transfer is taking place is not constant, the exergy transfer accompanying.

A piston–cylinder device contains 8 kg of refrigerant- 134a at 0.7 MPa and 60°C. The refrigerantis now cooled at constant pressure until it exists as a liquid at 20°C.

Nitrogen gas enters a diffuser at 100 kPa and 110°C with a velocity of 205 m/s and leaves at 110 kPa and 45 m/s. It is estimated that 2.5 kJ/kg of heat is lost from the diffuser to the surroundings at 100 kPa and 27°C. The exit area of the diffuser is 0.04 m2 .
