Problem
A 1-kg rigid steel tank contains 1.2 kg of R-134a at 20oC, 500 kPa. Now the setup is placed in a freezer that brings it to -20oC. The freezer operates in a 20oC kitchen and has a COP that is half that of a Carnot refrigerator. Find the heat transfer out of the R-134a, the extra work input to the refrigerator due to this process, and the total irreversibility including that of the refrigerator.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
