A 0.19-m3 rigid tank equipped with a pressure regulator contains steam at 2 MPa and 300°C. The steam in the tank is now heated.

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

576.21kJ

Explanation:

#We know that:

The balance mass $m_{in}+m_{out}=\bigtriangleup m_{system}$

so, $m_e=m_1-m_2$

$Energy \ Balance\\E_{in}-E_{out}=\bigtriangleup E_{system}\\\\\therefore Q_i_n+m_eh_e=m_2u_2-m_1u_1$

#Also, given the properties of water as;

$(P_1=2Mpa,T_1=300\textdegree C)->v_1=0.12551m^3/kg,u_1=2773.2kJ/kg->h_1=3024.2kJ/kg\\\\(P_2=2Mpa,T_1=500\textdegree C)->v_2=0.17568m^3/kg,u_1=3116.9kJ/kg->h_1=3468.3kJ/kg$

#We assume constant properties for the steam at average temperatures: $h_e=\approx(h_1+h_2)/2$

#Replace known values in the equation above; $h_e=(3024.2+3468.3)/2=3246.25kJ/kg\\\\m_1=V_1/v_1=0.19m^3/(0.12551m^3/kg)=1.5138kg\\\\m_2=V_2/v_2=0.19m^3/(0.17568m^3/kg)=1.0815kg$

#Using the mass and energy balance relations;

$m_e=m_1-m_2\\\\m_e=1.5138-1.0815\\\\m_e=0.4323kg$

#We have $Q_i_n+m_eh_e=m_2u_2-m_1u_1$ : we replace the known values in the equation as;

$Q_i_n+m_eh_e=m_2u_2-m_1u_1\\\\Q_i_n=0.4323kg\times3246.2kJ/kg+1.0815kg\times3116.9-1.5138kg\times2773.2kJ/kg\\\\Q_i_n=573.21kJ$

#Hence,the amount of heat transferred when the steam temperature reaches 500°C is 576.21kJ

A number 12 copper wire has a diameter of 2.053 mm. Calculate the resistance of a 37.0 m long piece of such wire.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

R=1923Ω

Explanation:

Resistivity(R) of copper wire at 20 degrees Celsius is 1.72x10^-8Ωm.

Coil length(L) of the wire=37.0m

Cross-sectional area of the conductor or wire (A) = πr^2

A= π * (2.053/1000)/2=3.31*10^-6

To calculate for the resistance (R):

R=ρ*L/A

R=(1.72*10^8)*(37.0)/(3.31*10^-6)

R=1922.65Ω

Approximately, R=1923Ω

Refrigerant-134a at 400 psia has a specific volume of 0.1144 ft3/lbm. Determine the temperature of the refrigerant based on (a)

vekshin1

Answer:

a) Using Ideal gas Equation, T = 434.98°R = 435°R

b) Using Van Der Waal's Equation, T = 637.32°R = 637°R

c) T obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is T = 559.67°R = 560°R

Explanation:

a) Ideal gas Equation

PV = mRT

T = PV/mR

P = pressure = 400 psia

V/m = specific volume = 0.1144 ft³/lbm

R = gas constant = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T = 400 × 0.1144/0.1052 = 434.98 °R

b) Van Der Waal's Equation

T = (1/R) (P + (a/v²)) (v - b)

a = Van Der Waal's constant = (27R²(T꜀ᵣ)²)/(64P꜀ᵣ)

R = 0.1052 psia.ft³/lbm.°R

T꜀ᵣ = critical temperature for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 673.6°R

P꜀ᵣ = critical pressure for refrigerant-134a (from the refrigerant tables) = 588.7 psia

a = (27 × 0.1052² × 673.6²)/(64 × 588.7)

a = 3.596 ft⁶.psia/lbm²

b = (RT꜀ᵣ)/8P꜀ᵣ

b = (0.1052 × 673.6)/(8 × 588.7) = 0.01504 ft³/lbm

T = (1/0.1052) (400 + (3.596/0.1144²) (0.1144 - 0.01504) = 637.32°R

c) The temperature for the refrigerant-134a as obtained from the refrigerant tables at P = 400 psia and v = 0.1144 ft³/lbm is

T = 100°F = 559.67°R
