Complete Question

Analyze the boundary work done during the process having a rigid tank contains air at 500 kPa and 150°C. As a result of heat transfer to the surroundings, the temperature and pressure inside the tank drop to 65°C and 400 kPa, respectively.

Determine the boundary work done during this process and heat Lose

Answer:

a)  [tex]W=0[/tex]

b)  [tex]dQ=-61.03KJ/kg[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Pressure of air [tex]P_1=500kpa[/tex]

Temperature of Air [tex]T_2=150°C[/tex]

Pressure drop [tex]P_2=400kpa[/tex]

Temperature of drop [tex]T_2=65 \textdegree C[/tex]

Generally the Constant Volume Process  is mathematically given by

 [tex]V_1=V_2=V[/tex]

Therefore

a)

Generally the equation for  boundary work w is mathematically given by

 [tex]W=pdv[/tex]

 [tex]W=P(V_2-V_1)[/tex]

 [tex]W=P(V_V)[/tex]

 [tex]W=0KJ[/tex]

b)

Generally the equation for Heat Change is mathematically given by

 [tex]dQ=dU+dW[/tex]

 [tex]dQ=dU[/tex]

 [tex]dQ=C_v(T_2-T_1)[/tex]

Where

   C_v=Specific Heat capacity of Air

  [tex]C_v=0.718 kJ/kg K[/tex]

 [tex]dQ=0.718(338-423)[/tex]

 [tex]dQ=-61.03KJ/kg[/tex]
