Air enters a duct operating at steady state with a mass flow rate of 3 kg/s a pressure of 1.2 bar and a temperature of 320 K the air exits at a pressure of .8 bar and a temperature of 360 K and there is a heat loss of 20 kW to the surroundings which are at a temperature of 300 K modeling air as an ideal gas determine the entropy production of the process in kilowatts per
