In a manufacturing process, it is necessary to supply a stream of water at a rate of 5.0 kg/s at a temperature of 70°C. To create this stream, you have several sources of water that can be mixed together: Source 1: Liquid water at 20°C; Source 2: Liquid water at 50°C; Source 3: Liquid water at 95°C; Source 4: Superheated steam at 120°C. The pressure of all the sources and the resulting mixed stream is 1 atm. Design a system to mix appropriate streams in an insulated chamber to accomplish this task; in your design, try to minimize the entropy generation rate of the mixing process.
