An operating gear box (transmission) has 350 hp at its input shaft while 250. hp are delivered to the output shaft. the gear box has a steady state surface temperature of 180. °f. determine the rate of entropy production by the gear box.

Rate of Entropy =210.14 J/K-s

Explanation:

given data:

power delivered to input = 350 hp

power delivered to output = 250 hp

temperature of surface = 180°F

rate of entropy is given as

T = 180°F = 82°C = 355 K

Rate of heat = (350 - 250) hp = 100 hp = 74600 W

Rate of Entropy

the clapeyron equation (also called the clausius-clapeyron equation) relates the slope of a reaction line on a phase diagram to fundamental thermodynamic properties.
