Chapter 7.13, Problem 179RP
A 0.8-m3 rigid tank contains carbon dioxide (CO2) gas at 250 K and 100 kPa. A 500-W electric resistance heater placed in the tank is now turned on and kept on for 40 min, after which the pressure of CO2 is measured to be 175 kPa. Assuming the surroundings to be at 300 K and using constant specific heats, determine (a) the final temperature of CO2, (b) the net amount of heat transfer from the tank, and (c) the entropy generation during this process.

A steam turbine of a local power plant is supplied with steam of 1.5 MPa and (40x9) °C from the boiler and the
condensate exits the turbine as saturated vapor at (5x9) °C. Determine the rate at which heat is lost to the surrounding
from the turbine if the mass flow rate of the steam is 19 kg/s and the turbine produces 12 MW of power. Neglect both
potential and kinetic energy.
Answer:
A 0.3-m3 rigid tank initially contains refrigerant- 134a at 14°C. At this state, 55 percent of the mass is in the vapor phase, and the rest is in the liquid phase. The tank is connected by a valve to a supply line where refrigerant at 1.4 MPa and 100°C flows steadily. Now the valve is opened slightly, and the refrigerant is allowed to enter the tank. When the pressure in the tank reaches 1 MPa, the entire refrigerant in the tank exists in the vapor phase only. At this point the valve is closed. Determine (a) the final temperature in the tank, (b) the mass of refrigerant that has entered the tank, and (c) the heat transfer between the system and the surroundings.
