Air at 27°C and a velocity of 5 m/s passes over the small region As (20 mm × 20 mm) on a large surface, which is maintained at T
s = 127°C. For these conditions, 0.5 W is removed from the surface As. To increase the heat removal rate, a stainless steel (AISI 304) pin fin of diameter 5 mm is affixed to As, which is assumed to remain at Ts = 127°C. (a) Determine the maximum possible heat removal rate through the fin. (Hint: look back to Chapter 3 to see which fin case produces the maximum heat transfer.) (b) What fin length would provide a close approximation to the heat rate found in part (a)? (Hint: refer to Example 3.9.) (c) Determine the fin effectiveness, εf. (d) What is the percentage increase in the heat rate from As due to installation of the fin? In other words, what is the percentage increase in q obtained by adding the fin as compared to not having the fin?

Answer:
1) The exergy of destruction is approximately 456.93 kW
2) The reversible power output is approximately 5456.93 kW
Explanation:
1) The given parameters are;
P₁ = 8 MPa
T₁ = 500°C
From which we have;
s₁ = 6.727 kJ/(kg·K)
h₁ = 3399 kJ/kg
P₂ = 2 MPa
T₂ = 350°C
From which we have;
s₂ = 6.958 kJ/(kg·K)
h₂ = 3138 kJ/kg
P₃ = 2 MPa
T₃ = 500°C
From which we have;
s₃ = 7.434 kJ/(kg·K)
h₃ = 3468 kJ/kg
P₄ = 30 KPa
T₄ = 69.09 C (saturation temperature)
From which we have;
h₄ = + x₄×
= 289.229 + 0.97*2335.32 = 2554.49 kJ/kg
s₄ = + x₄×
= 0.94394 + 0.97*6.8235 ≈ 7.563 kJ/(kg·K)
The exergy of destruction, , is given as follows;
= T₀ ×
= T₀ ×
× (s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)
= T₀ ×
×(s₄ + s₂ - s₁ - s₃)/(h₁ + h₃ - h₂ - h₄)
∴ = 298.15 × 5000 × (7.563 + 6.958 - 6.727 - 7.434)/(3399 + 3468 - 3138 - 2554.49) ≈ 456.93 kW
The exergy of destruction ≈ 456.93 kW
2) The reversible power output, =
+
≈ 5000 + 456.93 kW = 5456.93 kW
The reversible power output ≈ 5456.93 kW.
