Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 14RQ
A cylindrical tank filled to a height of 25 feet with tribromoethylene has been pressurized to 3 atmospheres (Psurface = 3 atmospheres) The total pressure in at the bottom of the tank is 5 atmospheres. Write a MATLAB function that will determine the density of tribromoethylene in units of kilograms per cubic meter given the height in units of feet and the surface and total pressures in units of atmospheres.

1. For the following concentration expressions, indicate whether they are uniform or nonuniform
and in how many dimensions (OD, 1D, 2D, or 3D), and steady or unsteady. Then for the following
control volume and origin, and table of constants, use Excel or Matlab to graph profiles that
show how concentration changes within the control volume and over time to a limit of 20 for
the following: C(x,0,0,0), C(0,y,0,0), C(0,0,z,0) and C(0,0,0,t). On each graph, show which
parameters are held constant, the CV boundaries, and the point where all four plots overlap.
