Carbon dioxide (CO2) fills a closed, rigid tank fitted with a paddle wheel, initially at 80°F, 50 lbf/in2, and a volume of 2.2 ft3. The gas is stirred until its temperature is 500°F. During this process heat transfer from the gas to its surroundings occurs in an amount 2.6 Btu. Assume ideal gas behavior, but do not assume constant specific heats. Kinetic and potential energy effects can be ignored.  Determine the mass of the carbon dioxide, in lb, and the work, in Btu

Work and Heat Transfer

It is generally related to thermal engineering which tells about the use, creation, conversion and transfer of heat energy between the systems. It is also considered that to transfer heat from one source to another, transfer of masses is also required. There are various mechanisms by which, transfer of heat takes place i.e. thermal conduction, convection, radiation or by change of phase. All these mechanisms have their own specific features which sometimes occur simultaneously within the same system.
