In a well-insulated rigid tank which contains 2 kg of a saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water at 200 kPa, 40% of the mass is in the liquid phase. A heater is providing heat to the content of the tank so that all liquid phase converts to vapor phase. Calculate the entropy change of water in this process.
A vessel with a volume of 0.008 m3 contains a liquid-vapor mixture of refrigerant 134a at 200 kPa and a quality of 20%. Determine: a) the mass of vapor present in kg, and b) the fraction of the total volume occupied by the liquid.
An insulated rigid tank initially contains 5 lb of saturated liquid water-vapor mixture at 40 psia with three-quarters of the mass in the liquid phase. An electric resistance heater placed in the tank is turned on until all of the liquid is vaporized. Calculate (a) the exergy destroyed, and (b) the second law efficiency.
A well-insulated rigid tank contains 2 kg of a saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water at 100 kPa. Initially, three-quarters of the mass is in the liquid phase. An electric resistance heater placed in the tank is now turned on and kept on until all the liquid in the tank is vaporized. Determine the entropy change of the steam during this process. Answer: 8.10 kJ/K Analysis From the steam tables (Tables A-4 through A-6)
a rigid 14 l vessel initially contains refrigerant 134a at 30 c and has a specific volume of 0.07m^3/kg. the mixture is having heat transfer to reach a pressure of 200kPa. calculate the heat transfer required for this process. state the process is heat addition or rejection to or from the system.
A well-insulated rigid tank contains 5.80 kg of a saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water at 225 kPa. Initially, one-quarter of the mass in the liquid phase. An electric resistor placed in the tank is connected to 240-V source, and a current of 6 A flows through the resistor when the switch is turned on. Determine how long it will take to vaporize all the liquid in the tank in minute.
QUESTION 3 A 0.25m of saturated liquid refrigerant-134a at 80°C is contained in frictionless insulated piston-cylinder device as shown in Figure Q2(b). A paddle-wheel is placed inside the cylinder chamber to stir the refrigerant-134a and the paddle wheel transfer a total work of 245 kJ to the fluid. Moreover, a 440 V and 9 amp of resistor is also placed inside the cylinder chamber to heat the refrigerant-134a. With the aid of a P-V diagram, determine the time taken for...
6.32. A rigid vessel contains 0.014 m3 of saturated-vapor steam in equilibrium with 0.021 m of saturated-liquid water at 100°C. Heat is transferred to the vessel until one phase just disappears, and a single phase remains. Which phase (liquid or vapor) remains, ard what are its temperature and pressure? How much hieat is transferred in the process?
An insulated piston-cylinder device contains 0.05 m3 of saturated R-134a vapor at 0.8 MPa. The refrigerant is now allowed to expand in a reversible manner (i.e. isentropic) until the pressure drops to 0.4 MPa. Determine (a) the final temperature in the cylinder and (b) the work done by the refrigerant.
A 0.6 m3 rigid tank initially contains refrigerant-134a in saturated vapor form at 0.9 MPa . As a result of heat transfer from the refrigerant, the pressure drops to 240 kPa.
