Question
14. Two vessels both containing nitrogen, are connected by a valve which is opened to allow the contents to
mix and achieve an equilibrium temperature of 27°C. Before mixing the following information is known
about the gases in the two vessels.
Vessel A
Vessel B
p = 15 bar
t = 50°C
Contents = 0.5 kg mole
Calculate the final equilibrium pressure and amount of heat transferred to the surroundings. If the
vessel had been perfectly insulated, calculate the final temperature and pressure which would have been
reached.
p = 6 bar
t = 20°C
Contents = 2.5 kg
Take y = 1.4.
[Ans. 11.68 bar, – 226.2 kJ, 45.5°C, 12.4 bar]
