Problem 3. (10 points) A closed and insulated rigid tank (perfectly insulated) is initially divided into halves by a separator. On one side of the separator is 1 m of air at 300 K, 2 bar. On the other side is 1 m of air at 500 K, 1 bar. The separator is removed, and the air from the two sides mixes and reaches equilibrium state Please treat the air as ideal gas with cp-1.001 kJ/kg K and c0.714 kJ/kg...

2. A small, un-insulated closed cylinder with a freely moving piston contains air and is accidentally dropped into a lake and falls slowly to the bottom at 100 m below the surface Initially, the air in the cylinder is at atmospheric pressure of 100 kPa with a volume of 0.1 m3 and a temperature of 20°C. The lake is also at a uniform and constant temperature of 20°C. As the cylinder falls, the air...
2. A thermal energy storage unit is composed of rectangular channels and is well insulated from outer surface. It encloses alternating layers and flow passages (shown using the arrows in the image below). Each layer of the storage material is an aluminum slab of width (thickness) W=0.05 m, which is at initial temperature of 25 °C. The storage unit is charged by passing a hot gas through the passages, with the gas temperature and convection coefficient assumed to have constant...
A heat recovery device involves transferring energy from the hot flue gases passing through an annular region to pressurized water flowing through the inner tube of the annulus. The inner tube has inner and outer diameters of 24 and 30 mm and is connected by 8 struts to an insulated outer tube of 65-mm diameter. Each strut is 3 mm thick and is integrally fabricated with the inner tube from carbon steel (k = 50 W/m-K). 71-1=3 mm D. D.2...

Heat is transferred to a gas in a piston cylinder device so that the volume changes from 3 mºto 6 m2. The initial pressure and temperature of the gas are 400 kPa and 25°C. If the process is irreversible determine the following: 1- The final temperature of the gas. 2- The work done during the process (kJ). 3- The total change in internal energy (kJ). 4- The heat transfer for the process (kJ). 5- The total entropy change (kJ/K). Comment...
pts per question) 1. A 2 m piston cylinder device contains nitroen gas at 200 kPa and 350K.
