Question: PROBLEM 1 ( 2 0 % ) A 0 . 2 - m 3 rigid tank initially contains saturated refrigerant - 1 3 4 a

PROBLEM 1(20%)
A 0.2-m3 rigid tank initially contains saturated refrigerant-134a vapor at 1 MPa . The tank is connected by a valve to a supply line that carries refrigerant-134a at 1.4 MPa and 60C. The valve is now opened, and the refrigerant is allowed to enter the tank. The valve is closed when one-half of the volume of the tank is filled with liquid and the rest with vapor at 1.2 MPa . The refrigerant exchanges heat during this process with the surroundings at 25C. Determine (a) the amount of heat transfer and (b) the exergy destruction associated with this process.
