Two rigid tanks are connected by a valve. Tank A contains 0.25 m³ of water at 450 kPa and 75 percent quality. Tank B contains 0.55 m³ of water at 300 kPa and 250°C. The valve is now opened, and the two tanks eventually come to the same state. Determine the pressure and the amount of heat transfer when the system reaches thermal equilibrium with the surroundings at 25°C. Show your complete solution.
The storage tank of the steam system contains 0.005 kg of steam at a pressure of 50 bar and 500°C. When the system is shut down, the steam in the vessel is cooled to a constant volume until the pressure reaches 20 bar. Determine the degree of dryness fraction after cooling. The temperature of the steam after cooling, the specific internal energy after cooling, and the heat transfer that has occurred (in J).
3) In a fixed volume container with a volume of 0.1 m^3, initially there is saturated water vapor at 130°C. The vessel is connected to a pipe through which steam flows through a valve at 2 MPa pressure and 350°C temperature. Then the valve opens and steam enters the container. Meanwhile, the temperature of the steam in the container remains constant at 130°C due to the heat transfer to the environment. When it is observed that 3/4 of the water in the container covers the liquid phase by mass, the valve is closed. Calculate a) the final pressure in the container, b) the mass of steam entering the container, c) the heat transfer to the environment.
(1) Water that has an initial volume of 140 L at 70°C with a quality of 28 percent is contained in a spring-loaded piston-cylinder device. This water is then heated until the pressure rises to 400 kPa and the temperature reaches 1100°C. The total amount of heat transfer during this process is:
An insulated piston-cylinder device contains 4.5 L of saturated liquid water at a constant pressure of 200 kPa. Water is stirred by a paddle wheel while a current of 20 A flows for 42 min through a resistor placed in the water. If 36% of the liquid is evaporated during this constant pressure process and the paddle-wheel work amounts to 280 kJ, determine the voltage of the source. Also, show the process on a P-v diagram with respect to saturation lines. H₂O = constant W P= Wh 4 Activate Wini
Heat transfer takes place with the surroundings such that the temperature in the tank remains constant at 300°F at all times.
Two different piston – cylinder devices each contain 1 kg of air. Initially, the temperature T = 300 K and %3D pressure P= 100 kPa of the gases are both the same in both cylinders. However, one of the cylinders is insulated and the other is not. Now, both of these gases inside the cylinders are let to expand in quasi- equilibrium processes until their pressures reach to 50 kPa. The expansion process takes place isentropically in the cylinder 1 and in the cylinder 2 the expansion process takes place reversible and isothermally. a) Plot in Excel the P-V diagrams of both processes. (Take k = cp / cv = 1.4) %3D b) Calculate the work done by the gases.
An expansion valve is a part of an adiabatic rigid steam boiler. Steam's initial pressure and temperature are set to 1 MPa and 350°C. In a matter of seconds, the tank's expansion valve was opened, causing it to fill to capacity. Calculate the pressure in the expansion valve if the steam flowing through it has a temperature of 300C.

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
