A cylinder with a linear spring-loaded piston contains carbon dioxide gas at 2 MPa with a volume

Question:

A cylinder with a linear spring-loaded piston contains carbon dioxide gas at 2 MPa with a volume of 50 L. The device is of aluminum and has a mass of 4 kg. Everything (Al and gas) is initially at 200C. By heat transfer the whole system cools to the ambient temperature of 25C, at which point the gas pressure is 1.5 MPa. Find the total entropy generation for the process.
