(2) A well-insulated 106 m³ room initially at 3°C and 88 kPa is heated by the radiator of a steam heating system. The radiator has a volume of 35 L and is filled with superheated vapor at 300 kPa and 250°C. At this moment both the inlet and the exit valves to the radiator are closed. A 100-W fan is used to distribute the air in the room. The pressure of the steam is observed to drop to 100 kPa after 148 min as a result of heat transfer to the room. Assuming constant specific heats for air at room temperature and that the room is perfectly sealed, the temperature rise will be:

A well-insulated 4-m × 4-m × 5-m room initially at 10°C is heated by the radiator of a steam heating system. The radiator has a volume of 15 L and is filled with superheated vapor at 200 kPa and 200°C. At this moment both the inlet and the exit valves to the radiator are closed. A 120-W fan is used to distribute the air in the room. The pressure of the steam is observed to drop to 100 kPa after 30 min as a result of heat transfer to the room. Assuming constant specific heats for air at room temperature, determine . the entropy generated during this process, in kJ/K. Assume the air pressure in the room remains constant at 100 kPa at all times.
A Piston-Cylinder system initially contains R-134a refrigerant at a temperature of 2.8 bar and 40°C and an initial volume of 0.1 m3. First, heat is transferred to the system by keeping the piston constant and this process is continued until the pressure is 3.2 bar. The process is then maintained by allowing the volume to change while the pressure is kept constant. At the end of this process, the temperature reaches 50°C. Assuming the state changes as if they are balanced,calculate;a) The mass of R-134a refrigerant in the system,b) The amount of heat transferred during the fixed volume process,c) The amount of heat transferred during constant pressure operation.d) Show the state changes on the P-v diagram.
Water vapor at 100 kPa and 150°C is compressed isothermally until half the vapor has condensed. How much work must be performed on the steam in this compression process in kW if the mass flow rate is 6.132 kg/s? For the steam table, please refer to the green book entitled " Thermodynamic Properties of Water Including Vapor, Liquid, and Solid Phases"
A piston and cylinder arrangement contains saturated water vapor at 110°C. The vapor is compressed in a reversible, adiabatic process until the pressure is 1.6 MPa. What is the work done to or by the system in BTU if the mass of the vapor is 6.745 kg?
Please provide a detailed solution, Don't just put the equation. It's important to provide an explanation.
R-134a is a refrigerant, which is used inside of refrigerators and air conditioners. You can buy canisters of this as a compressed liquid, which can be used to recharge a leaky air conditioner. The canister initially contains 0.539 kg of R-134a at room temperature (25 °C). For simplicity, let's assume that the R-134a is initially saturated liquid. You use this canister to recharge an air conditioner, until the canister has half of its original mass remaining. The canister is upright with the exit on the top of the canister, so the exit flow is saturated vapor. In order to maintain the temperature at 25 °C, how much heat must be supplied to the canister? Note that this is why compressed liquid/gas canisters feel cold when you use them – they require heat - input to maintain constant T.
A 0.78 m³ tank initially contains water at 260°C and a quality of 0.81. A valve at the top of the tank is opened and allows for saturated vapor at 260°C to leave the tank. The tank is maintained isothermally during this process until the tank is filled with only saturated vapor at 260⁰ C. What is the mass of steam that leaves the tank during this process? How much heated is added to the tank during this process. KJ kg
