Chapter 8 EXERGY – A MEASURE OF WORK POTENTIAL

Exergy, Irreversibility, Reversible Work, and Second-Law Efficiency

8-1C Reversible work differs from the useful work by irreversibilities. For reversible processes both are identical. Wu = Wrev -I.

8-2C Reversible work and irreversibility are identical for processes that involve no actual useful work.

8-3C The dead state.

8-4C Yes; exergy is a function of the state of the surroundings as well as the state of the system.

8-5C Useful work differs from the actual work by the surroundings work. They are identical for systemsthat involve no surroundings work such as steady-flow systems.

8-6C Yes.

8-7C No, not necessarily. The well with the higher temperature will have a higher exergy.

8-8C The system that is at the temperature of the surroundings has zero exergy. But the system that is at alower temperature than the surroundings has some exergy since we can run a heat engine between thesetwo temperature levels.

8-9C They would be identical.

8-10C The second-law efficiency is a measure of the performance of a device relative to its performanceunder reversible conditions. It differs from the first law efficiency in that it is not a conversion efficiency.

8-11C No. The power plant that has a lower thermal efficiency may have a higher second-law efficiency.

8-12C No. The refrigerator that has a lower COP may have a higher second-law efficiency.

8-13C A processes with Wrev = 0 is reversible if it involves no actual useful work. Otherwise it isirreversible.

8-14C Yes.

8-27C Yes.

8-28C Yes, it can. For example, the 1st law efficiency of a reversible heat engine operating between thetemperature limits of 300 K and 1000 K is 70%. However, the second law efficiency of this engine, likeall reversible devices, is 100%.

8-29 A cylinder initially contains air at atmospheric conditions. Air is compressed to a specified state and the useful work input is measured. The exergy of the air at the initial and final states, and the minimumwork input to accomplish this compression process, and the second-law efficiency are to be determinedAssumptions 1 Air is an ideal gas with constant specific heats. 2 The kinetic and potential energies are negligible.Properties The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa.m3/kg.K (Table A-1). The specific heats of air at the average temperature of (298+423)/2=360 K are cp = 1.009 kJ/kg·K and cv = 0.722 kJ/kg·K (Table A-2). Analysis (a) We realize that X1 = 1 = 0 since air initially is at the dead state. The mass of air is

C and cp,copper

Discussion The value above represents the exergy destroyed within the water heater and the T-elbow in theabsence of any heat losses. It does not include the exergy destroyed as the shower water at 42 C is discarded or cooled to the outdoor temperature. Also, an entropy balance on the mixing chamber alone(hot water entering at 55 C instead of 15 C) will exclude the exergy destroyed within the water heater.

The work done, the exit exergy of compressed air, and the exergy of compressed air after it is cooled to ambient temperature are to be determined.Assumptions 1 Air is an ideal gas with constant specific heats at room temperature. 2 The process is givento be reversible and adiabatic, and thus isentropic. Therefore, isentropic relations of ideal gases apply. 3The environment temperature and pressure are given to be 300 K and 100 kPa. 4 The kinetic and potentialenergies are negligible. Properties The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kJ/kg.K (Table A-1). The constant pressure specific heatand specific heat ratio of air at room temperature are cp = 1.005 kJ/kg.K and k = 1.4 (Table A-2).

Discussion The rate of entropy generation within the iron can be determined by performing an entropybalance on the iron alone (it gives 2.21 W/K). Therefore, about one-third of the entropy generation and thus exergy destruction occurs within the iron. The rest occurs in the air surrounding the iron as thetemperature drops from 150 C to 20 C without serving any useful purpose.

The valve is openedand steam flows from tank A to tank B until the pressure in tank A drops to a specified value. Tank B losesheat to the surroundings. The final temperature in each tank and the work potential wasted during this process are to be determined.Assumptions 1 Tank A is insulated and thus heat transfer is negligible. 2 The water that remains in tank A undergoes a reversible adiabatic process. 3 The thermal energy stored in the tanks themselves is negligible.4 The system is stationary and thus kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. 5 There are no work interactions.Analysis (a) The steam in tank A undergoes a reversible, adiabatic process, and thus s2 = s1.

Alternative Solution In the solution above, we assumed the air pressure in the room to remain constant.This is an extreme case, and it is commonly used in practice since it gives higher results for heat loads, and thus allows the designer to be conservative results. The other extreme is to assume the house to be airtight,and thus the volume of the air in the house to remain constant as the air is heated. There is no expansion inthis case and thus boundary work, and cv is used in energy change relation instead of cp. It gives thefollowing results:

For a given power output, the reversible power output and the rate ofexergy destruction are to be determined.Assumptions 1 This is a steady-flow process since there is no change with time. 2 Kinetic and potential energychanges are negligible. 3 The turbine is adiabatic andthus heat transfer is negligible. 4 The environmenttemperature is given to be T0 = 25 C.

The final equilibrium temperature in the room and the entropy generated are to be determined.Assumptions 1 The room is well insulated and well sealed. 2 The thermal properties of water and air are constant at room temperature. 3 The system is stationary and thus the kinetic and potential energy changes are zero. 4 There are no work interactions involved.Properties The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa.m3/kg.K (Table A-1). The constant volume specificheat of water at room temperature is cv = 0.718 kJ/kg C (Table A-2). The specific heat of water at roomtemperature is c = 4.18 kJ/kg C (Table A-3).

8-123 A 1-ton (1000 kg) of water is to be cooled in a tank by pouring ice into it. The final equilibriumtemperature in the tank and the exergy destruction are to be determined.Assumptions 1 Thermal properties of the ice and water are constant. 2 Heat transfer to the water tank is negligible. 3 There is no stirring by hand or a mechanical device (it will add energy).Properties The specific heat of water at room temperature is c = 4.18 kJ/kg·°C, and the specific heat of iceat about 0 C is c = 2.11 kJ/kg·°C (Table A-3). The melting temperature and the heat of fusion of ice at 1 atm are 0 C and 333.7 kJ/kg..Analysis (a) We take the ice and the water as the system, and disregard any heat transfer between the system and the surroundings.

The amount of heat transfer through the wall of the bottle when thermal and mechanicalequilibrium is established and the amount of exergy destroyed are to be determined.Assumptions 1 This is an unsteady process since the conditions within the device are changing during theprocess, but it can be analyzed as a uniform-flow process since the state of fluid at the inlet remainsconstant. 2 Air is an ideal gas. 3 Kinetic and potential energies are negligible. 4 There are no work interactions involved. 5 The direction of heat transfer is to the air in the bottle (will be verified).Properties The gas constant of air is 0.287 kPa.m3/kg.K (Table A-1).Analysis We take the bottle as the system, which is a control volume since mass crosses the boundary.Noting that the microscopic energies of flowing and nonflowing fluids are represented by enthalpy h andinternal energy u, respectively, the mass and energy balances can be expressed as Mass balance: )0(since initialout2systemoutin mmmmmmm i
