What are the irreversibility and the second-law efficiency


Problem

1. A heat engine receives 1 kW heat transfer at 1000 K and gives out 400 W as work, with the rest as heat transfer to the ambient. Find its first and second-law efficiencies.

2. A heat exchanger increases the exergy of 3 kg/s water by 1650 kJ/kg using 10 kg/s air coming in at 1400 K and leaving with 600 kJ /kg less exergy. What are the irreversibility and the second-law efficiency?

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.
