8-84 A 0.2-m3 rigid tank initially contains saturated refrigerant-134a vapor at 1 MPa. The tank is connected by a valve to a supply line that carries refrigerant-134a at 1.4 MPa and 60°C. The valve is now opened, and the refrigerant is allowed to enter the tank. The valve is closed when one-half of the volume of the tank is filled with liquid and the rest with vapor at 1.2 MPa. The refrigerant exchanges heat during this process with the surroundings at 25°C. Determine a) the amount of heat transfer and b) the exergy destruction associated with this process. | |
