Since the control volume of a vessel experiences mass flowing out, it indicates a change in the system’s
mass content. So, it is considered under the Transient Process because there is a change in mass

So, applying continuity equation.

me = m1 – m2

Then, apply the energy equation.

m2 ( he – U2) = m1 ( he – U1)

Now, the average exit Enthalpy is given by:

ℎ𝑔1+ℎ𝑔2 2801.38 + 2777.08
he = 2
= 2

he = 2789. 73 kJ/kg

The energy equation becomes,

m2 ( he – U2) = m1 ( he – U1 )

𝑣2
(2789.72 − U2 ) = 40.1768 ( 2789.73 – 2602.27)

2789.73 – U2 = 3765.5429𝑣2

Hence,

𝑣2= 𝑣𝑓 + 𝑥 𝑣𝑓𝑔

𝑣2= 0.00127 + X2 (0.19332)

U2 = Uf + X2 Ufg

U2 = 761.67 + X2 (1821.97)

2789.73 –761.67 + X2 (1821.97) = 3765.5429 (0.00127 + X2 (0.19332)

X2 = 0.7937
Thus,

𝑣2= 0.00127 + (0.7927) (0.19332)

𝑣2= 0.1547 m3/kg

m2 = 𝑣2 = 0.1547

m2 = 12.9282 kg

me = m1 – m2

me = 40.1768 – 12.9282

me = 27.25 kg
