Consider an Airbus A330, whose cargo hold has a volume of 43.3 m³. Assume the passenger compartment has the same volume, a temperature of 15°C, and a pressure matching the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standard atmosphere at an elevation of 2,000 m. Air MW = 29 g/mol, and recall Ro = 8.314 Nm/mol K. Hint, see Canvas, Week 1, Fluid Property Tables. Part A How many kilograms of air are contained inside the passenger compartment? Part B How many extra kilograms of air would be required to pressurize the passenger compartment to the ICAO standard atmosphere at sea level?

Expert Solution
Step 1: Given

The volume of compartment is V equals 43.3 space m cubed.

The temperature is T equals 15 degree C equals 288 space K.

The molecular weight of air is M equals 29 space g divided by m o l.

The gas constant is R equals 8.314 space N m divided by m o l. K.
