Consider the light bulb in Problem 6.189. What are the fluxes of exergy at the various locations mentioned? What is the exergy destruction in the filament, the entire bulb including the glass, and the entire room including the bulb? The light does not affect the gas or the glass in the bulb, but it becomes absorbed by the walls of the room.
Problem 6.189
A small halogen light bulb receives electrical power of 50 W. The small filament is at 1000 K and gives out 20% of the power as light and the rest as heat transfer to the gas, which is at 500 K; the glass is at 400 K. All the power is absorbed by the room walls at 25?C. Find the rate of generation of entropy in the filament, in the total bulb including the glass, and in the total room including the bulb.
