An insulated rigid tank contains 3 kg of H2O in the form of a saturated mixture of liquid and vapor at a pressure of 150 kPa and

a quality of 0.25. An electric heater inside the tank is turned on to heat this H2O until the pressure increases to 200 kPa. Please determine the change in total entropy of water during this process. Hint: See if you can find the electrical work consumed during this process.

Answer:

change in entropy is 1.44 kJ/ K

Explanation:

from steam tables

At 150 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001053 m^3/kg

vg = 1.1594 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.4337 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.789 kJ/kg

initial specific volume is calculated as

v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

      = 0.001053 + 0.25(1.1594 - 0.001053)

v_1 = 0.20964  m^3/kg

s_1 = Sf + x(Sfg)

     = 1.4337 + 0.25 \times 5.7894 = 2.88 kJ/kg K

FROM STEAM Table

at 200 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001061 m^3/kg

vg = 0.88578 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.5302 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.5698 kJ/kg

constant volume  sov_1 -  v_2  = 0.29064 m^3/kg

v_2 = v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

       =0.29064 = x_2(0.88578 - 0.001061)

x_2 = 0.327

s_2 = 1.5302 + 0.32 \times 5.5968 = 3.36035 kJ/kg K

Change in entropy \Delta s = m(s_2 - s_1)

              =3( 3.36035 - 2.88) =  1.44 kJ/kg

Luden [163]

Answer:

P=1362\ W

t'=251.659\ s is time required to heat to boiling point form initial temperature.

Explanation:

Given:

initial temperature of water, T_i=18^{\circ}C

time taken to vapourize half a liter of water, t=18\ min=1080\ s

desity of water, \rho=1\ kg.L^{-1}

So, the givne mass of water, m=1\ kg

enthalpy of vaporization of water, h_{fg}=2256.4\times 10^{-3}\ J.kg^{-1}

specific heat of water, c=4180\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

Amount of heat required to raise the temperature of given water mass to 100°C:

Q_s=m.c.\Delta T

Q_s=1\times 4180\times (100-18)

Q_s=342760\ J

Now the amount of heat required to vaporize 0.5 kg of water:

Q_v=m'\times h_{fg}

where:

m'=0.5\ kg= mass of water vaporized due to boiling

Q_v=0.5\times 2256.4

Q_v=1.1282\times 10^{6}\ J

Now the power rating of the boiler:

P=\frac{Q_s+Q_v}{t}

P=\frac{342760+1128200}{1080}

P=1362\ W

Now the time required to heat to boiling point form initial temperature:

t'=\frac{Q_s}{P}

t'=\frac{342760}{1362}

t'=251.659\ s
