Since the thermal efficiency of the proposed heat engine is greater than that of a
completely reversible heat engine which uses the same isothermal energy reservoirs, the
inventor's claim is invalid.

7-25 Heat is transferred directly from an energy-source reservoir to an energy-sink. The
entropy change of the two reservoirs is to be calculated and it is to be determined if the
increase of entropy principle is satisfied.

Since the entropy of everything involved in this process has
increased, this transfer of heat is possible.
7-31 R-134a enters an evaporator as a saturated liquid-vapor at a specified pressure. Heat
is transferred to the refrigerant from the cooled space, and the liquid is vaporized. The
entropy change of the refrigerant, the entropy change of the cooled space, and the total
entropy change for this process are to be determined.
Assumptions 1 Both the refrigerant and the cooled space involve no internal
irreversibilities such as friction. 2 Any temperature change occurs within the wall of the
tube, and thus both the refrigerant and the cooled space remain isothermal during this
process. Thus it is an isothermal, internally reversible process.
Analysis Noting that both the refrigerant and the cooled space undergo reversible
isothermal processes, the entropy change for them can be determined from
S 

(a) The pressure of the refrigerant is maintained constant. Therefore, the temperature of
the refrigerant also remains constant at the saturation value,

7-58 Steam is expanded in an isentropic turbine. The work produced is to be determined.
Assumptions 1 This is a steady-flow process since there is no change with time. 2 The
process is isentropic (i.e., reversible-adiabatic).
Analysis There is only one inlet and one exit, and thus m1  m 2  m . We take the turbine as
the system, which is a control volume since mass crosses the boundary. The energy
balance for this steady-flow system can be expressed in the rate form as
