Saturated-liquid ethane at T1 = 14°C is throttled into a steady flow mixing chamber at the rate of 0.25 kmol/s. Argon gas at T2 = 25°C, P2 = 800 kPa, enters the chamber at the rate of 0.75 kmol/s. Heat is transferred to the chamber from a heat source at a constant temperature of 150oC at a rate such that a gas mixture exits the chamber at T3 = 120oC, P3 = 800 kPa. Find the rate of heat transfer and the rate of entropy generation.
