A 0.5 m3 tank contains R134A at ambient temperature of 20 C. 10% of the tank volume is vapor and the balance is liquid. The tank safety valve opens at 1000 kPa. The room temperature gradually rises to 40 C and the tank is heated. The valve opens and the Freon is released until the valve closes (the pressure drops slightly below 1000 kPa. A - At what temperature of the Freon will the valve open? B - What will be the condition of the Freon when the valve closes? C-Determine the mass of Freon remaining in the tank. D- Determine the amount of heat transfer into the tank.

Question
A 0.5 m3 tank contains R134A at ambient temperature of 20 C. 10% of the tank volume is vapor and the
balance is liquid. The tank safety valve opens at 1000 kPa. The room temperature gradually rises to 40 C
and the tank is heated. The valve opens and the Freon is released until the valve closes (the pressure
drops slightly below 1000 kPa.
A - At what temperature of the Freon will the valve open?
B - What will be the condition of the Freon when the valve closes?
C - Determine the mass of Freon remaining in the tank.
D- Determine the amount of heat transfer into the tank.
