AE211: FUNDAMENTALS OF THERMOFLUIDS -231

HW # 2
Due Date: October 05, 2023

Problem 1:

Problem 2:

Problem 3: 1-m3 tank containing air at 10oC and 350 kPa is

connected through a valve to another tank containing 3 kg of air at
35oC and 200 kPa. Now the valve is opened, and the entire system is
allowed to reach thermal equilibrium with the surroundings, which are
at 20oC. Determine the volume of the second tank and the final
equilibrium pressure of air.

Problem 4: Determine the specific volume of superheated water vapor at 3.5 MPa and 450oC based on (a)
the ideal-gas equation and (b) the steam tables. Determine the error value.

Problem 5:
An insulated rigid tank is divided into two equal parts by a partition. Initially,
one part contains 4 kg of an ideal gas at 800 kPa and 50oC, and the other part is
evacuated. The partition is now removed, and the gas expands into the entire
tank. Determine the final temperature and pressure in the tank.
