The wall of a refrigerator is constructed of fiberglass insulation sandwiched between two layers of 1-mm-thick sheet metal (304 stainless steel). the refrigerated space is maintained at 3°c, and the average heat transfer coefficients at the inner and outer surfaces of the wall are 4 w/m2 · °c and 9 w/m2 · °c, respectively. the kitchen temperature averages 25°c. it is observed that condensation occurs on the outer surfaces of the refrigerator when the temperature of the outer surface drops to 10°c. determine the minimum thickness of fiberglass insulation that needs to be used in the wall in order to avoid condensation on the outer surfaces.

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
