Question:

A concentrated solar power plant receives the energy from molten salt coming in at 1000 F and leaving at 600 F in a counter flow heat exchanger in which the water comes in at 400 psia, 140 F and leaves at 800 F, 400 psia. The molten salt has 10 lbm/s flow with Cp = 0.36 Btu/lbm-R. What is the possible water flow rate, the rate of energy transfer, and the rate of entropy generation?
