Problem 1: A 1.2 m rigid tank initially contains air (as an ideal gas) at 100 kPa and 25°C. The tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. Air is flowing in the supply line at 650 kPa and 25°C. The valve is opened and air is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed.
Determine:
a) The flow work, i.e. Pv, of the air in the supply line. (P = 100 kPa, T = 25°C)
b) The final temperature of the tank if u equals 250.02 kJ/kg.
c) The initial mass (m), final mass (m), and mass entering (m_in).
d) The amount of heat transferred. Is heat added or removed?
