Answer to Problem 63P

The entropy change of the computer chips is 0.000772kJ/K_.

Explanation of Solution

Write the expression for the energy balance equation.

EinEout=ΔEsystem (I)

Here, the total energy entering the system is Ein, the total energy leaving the system is Eout, and the change in the total energy of the system is ΔEsystem.

Substitute 0 for Ein, 0 for Eout, and ΔU for ΔEsystem in Equation (I)

(0)(0)=ΔU(0)=[m(u2u1)]Chips+[m(u2u1)]R-134a[m(u2u1)]Chips=[m(u2u1)]R-134a (II)

Here, the mass is m, the initial specific internal energy is u1, and the final specific internal energy is u2.

Determine the heat released by the computer chips.

Qchips=mc(T1T2) (III)

Here, the mass of the computer chips is m, the specific heat of the computer chips is c, the initial temperature of the computer chips is T1, and the final temperature of the computer chips is T2.

Determine the mass of the refrigerant vaporized during this heat exchange process.

mg,2=Qchipshghf=Qchipshfg@40°C (IV)

Here, the saturated specific enthalpy change upon vaporization at 40°C is hfg@40°C.

Determine the change in the entropy of the R-134a.

ΔSR-134a=mg,2sg,2+mf,2sf,2mf,1sf,1 (V)

Here, the mass of the refrigerant vaporized at state 2 is mg,2, the entropy of the refrigerant vaporized at state 2 is sg,2, the mass of the refrigerant liquid at state 2 is mf,2, the entropy of the refrigerant liquid at state 2 is sf,2, the mass of the refrigerant liquid at state 1 is mf,1, and the entropy of the refrigerant liquid at state 1 is sf,1.

Determine the entropy change of the computer chips.

ΔSchips=mclnT2T1 (VI)

Determine the total entropy change of the entire system.

ΔStotal=ΔSR-134a+ΔSchips (VII)

Conclusion:

Substitute 10 g for mchips, 0.3kJ/kgK for c, 20°C  for T1, and 40°C for T2 in Equation (III).

Qchips=(10g)(0.3kJ/kgK)((20°C)(40°C))=(10g×(103kg1g))(0.3kJ/kgK)((20°C+273)(40°C+273))=(0.010kg)(0.3kJ/kgK)((293K)(233K))=0.18kJ

From the Table A-11, to obtain the value of the specific enthalpy change upon vaporization, entropy of the refrigerant vaporized at state 2, entropy of the refrigerant liquid at state 2, entropy of the refrigerant liquid at state 1 at final temperature of 40°C as

hfg=225.86kJ/kgsg,2=0.96866kJ/kgKsf,1=0.00000kJ/kgK

Substitute 0.18kJ for Qchips, 225.86kJ/kg for hfg@40°C in Equation (IV).

mg,2=(0.18kJ)(225.86kJ/kg)=0.000797kg

Substitute 0.000797kg for mg,2, 0.96866kJ/kgK for sg,2, 5 g for mf,2, 5 g for mf,1, and 0.00000kJ/kgK for sf,1 in Equation (V).

ΔSR-134a=[(0.000797kg)×(0.96866kJ/kgK)+(5g)×(0.00000kJ/kgK)(5g)×(0.00000kJ/kgK)]=0.00772kJ/K

Thus, the entropy change of the computer chips is 0.000772kJ/K_.

Substitute 10 g for mchips, 0.3kJ/kgK for c, 20°C  for T1, and 40°C for T2 in Equation (VI).

ΔSchips=(10g)(0.3kJ/kgK)ln((40°C)(20°C))=(10g×(103kg1g))(0.3kJ/kgK)ln((40°C+273)(20°C+273))=(0.010kg)(0.3kJ/kgK)(0.22913)=0.00069kJ/K

Thus, the entropy change of the R-134 is 0.00069kJ/K_.

Substitute 0.000772kJ/K for ΔSR-134a and 0.00069kJ/K for ΔSchips in Equation (VII).

ΔStotal=(0.000772kJ/K)+(0.00069kJ/K)=0.00008457kJ/K

Thus, the entropy change of the entire system is 0.00008457kJ/K_.

Ten grams of computer chips with a specific heat of 0.3 kJ/kg·K are initially at 20°C. These chips are cooled by placement in 5 grams of saturated liquid R-134a at –40°C. Presuming that the pressure remains constant while the chips are being cooled, determine the entropy change of the entire system. Is this process possible? Why?
