Solution :

Given data :

 The volume of tank 𝑉 = 0.016773 𝑚3

 Mass of R-134a 𝑚 = 1 𝑘𝑔
 Temperature of R-134a 𝑇 = 110° 𝐶 = 383 𝐾
Part a)
Assumption is taken here is that refrigerant is equilibrium with tank
Here the critical pressure and temperature is taken from steam table

𝑃𝑐𝑟 = 4.095 𝑀𝑃𝑎

𝑇𝑐𝑟 = 374. 𝐾
𝐾𝑃𝑎 𝑚3
And 𝑅 = 0.082 𝑘𝑔 𝐾

𝑅𝑇
For ideal gas pressure is given as 𝑃 = 𝑣
𝑉
Where 𝑣 is specific volume define as 𝑣 = 𝑚

0.016773 𝑚3
So , 𝑣 = = 0.016773 𝑘𝑔
1

Now put value in the pressure equation

0.082 × 383
𝑃= = 1861 𝐾𝑃𝑎
0.01673
Part b)

For compressibility chat we need the reduce parameter such as

𝑇 383
Temperature 𝑇𝑅 = 𝑇 = 374.2 = 1.023
𝑐𝑟

𝑉𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑢𝑎𝑙 0.016773
Reduced specific volume given as 𝑣𝑅 = 𝑅𝑇𝑐𝑟 = 0.082 ×374.2 = 2.24
𝑃𝑐𝑟 4059

Now from using this reduced temperature and specific volume we can find reduced ressure
from compressibility chart

𝒔𝒐, 𝑷𝑹 = 𝟎. 𝟑𝟗
So according to generalised compressibility chart pressure is given as
𝑃 = 𝑃𝑅 × 𝑃𝑐𝑟 = 0.39 ∗ 4059 = 1583 𝐾𝑃𝑎
