A rigid tank contains a gas mixture with a specific heat of cv = 0.748 kJ/kg·K. The mixture is cooled from 200 kPa and 200°C until its pressure is 100 kPa. Determine the heat transfer during this process, in kJ/kg.

Step 1
We are given the initial pressure (P1 = 200 kPa), initial temperature (T1 = 200°C), and final pressure (P2 = 100 kPa). We need to find the final temperature (T2) and the heat transfer (Q) during this process. Show more…

A $1 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$ tank initially contains air at $300 \mathrm{kPa}, 300 \mathrm{~K}$. Air slowly escapes from the tank until the pressure drops to 100 $\mathrm{kPa}$. The air that remains in the tank undergoes a process described by $p v^{1.2}=$ constant. For a control volume enclosing the tank, determine the heat transfer, in kJ. Assume ideal gas behavior with constant specific heats.

A rigid tank contains 1 kg methane at $500 \mathrm{~K}, 1500$ $\mathrm{kPa}$. It is now cooled down to $300 \mathrm{~K}$. Find the heat transfer and the change in entropy using ideal gas.
