Determine rate of exergy destruction in the heat exchanger


Hot exhaust gases leaving an internal combustion engine at 400oC and 150 kPa at a rate of 0.8 kg/s is to be used to produce saturated steam at 200oC in an insulated exchanger. Water enters the heat exchanger at the ambient temperature of 20oC, and the exhaust gases leave the heat exchanger at 350oC. Determine (a) the rate of steam production, (b) the rate of exergy destruction in the heat exchanger, and (c) the second-law efficiency of the heat exchanger.
