**Throttling Process for R-134a****Problem Statement:**Saturated vapor R-134a at 500 kPa is throttled to 200 kPa in a steady flow through a valve. The kinetic energy in the inlet and exit flow is the same. What is the exit temperature?---This problem involves a throttling process, where a fluid undergoes a pressure drop without a change in enthalpy, and no work is done. In this case, R-134a, a refrigerant, is used.**Key Concepts:**1. **Throttling Process:** - No heat transfer, no work done. - Enthalpy remains constant. - Often used in refrigeration cycles.2. **Given Values:** - Initial Condition: Saturated vapor at 500 kPa. - Final Condition: Pressure is reduced to 200 kPa. - Same kinetic energy at inlet and outlet.3. **Objective:** - Determine the exit temperature after the throttling process.**Approach:**- Use the steam table or refrigerant table for R-134a to find the properties of the fluid at the initial pressure.- Enthalpy before throttling (inlet) is equal to enthalpy after throttling (exit).- Look up the enthalpy at 500 kPa to find the corresponding temperature after throttling at 200 kPa. This fundamental understanding helps to apply the principles of thermodynamics and the behavior of refrigerants in practical applications.

The free expansion of an ideal gas is an adiabatic process andso no heat is transferred. No work is done, so the internal energy doesnot change. Thus, Q/T = 0, yet the randomness of the system and thusits entropy have increased after the expansion. Why does Eq. not apply to this situation?

3. An empty 100-L tank is connected to a line flowing air (an ideal gas) at 300 K and 6 MPa. The valve is opened and the air starts to flow into the tank. The valve is closed when the pressure inside reaches 5 MPa. This filling process occurs so fast that it can be assumed as adiabatic (i.e., no heat transfer). At the point when the valve is closed, what is the temperature and mass of air inside the tank?
