Problem
1. Carbon dioxide at 300 K, 200 kPa is brought through a steady-flow device, where it is heated to 600 K by a 700 K reservoir in a constant-pressure process. Find the specific work, specific heat transfer, and specific entropy generation.
2. Methane at 1 MPa, 300 K is throttled through a valve to 100 kPa. Assume no change in the kinetic energy and ideal gas behavior. What is the specific entropy generation?
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.
