Applying the Exergy Balance: Closed Systems

A rigid, insulated tank contains 0.6 kg of air, initially at 200 kPa, 20°C. The air is stirred by a paddle wheel until its pressure is 250 kPa. Using the ideal gas model with cv = 0.72 kJ/kg · K, determine, in kJ, (a) the work, (b) the change in exergy of the air, and (c) the amount of exergy destroyed. Ignore the effects of motion and gravity, and let T0 = 20°C, p0 = 100 kPa.
