Nitrogen at 500 KPa, 500K is in a 1m3 insulated tank connected to a pipe with a value to a second

insulated initially empty tank of 0.5m3. The value is opened and the nitrogen fills both tanks. Find the

final temperature, pressure and the entropy generation this process causes.(the gas constant of nitrogen is R=0.2968 KJ/Kg?K)

An insulated tank containing 0.5m3 of R-134 at 500 kPa and 90% quality is connected to an initially evacuated insulated piston-cylinder device. The force balance on the piston is such that a pressure of 120kPa is required to lift the piston. The valve is then opened slightly and part of the refrigerant flows to the cylinder, pushing the piston up and the final cylinder volume is 1.5 m 3 . The process ends when the pressure in the tank drops...

An insulated, rigid tank whose volume is 0.5 m3 is connected by a valve to a large vessel holding steam at 40 bar, 480°C. The tank is initially evacuated. The valve is opened only as long as required to fill the tank with steam to a pressure of 20 bar. Determine: (a) the final temperature of the steam in the tank, in °C, the final mass of the steam in the tank, in kg, and (b) the amount of entropy...
