thermodynamics for chemical eng:

A tank of 50-m3 capacity contains steam at 5,000 kPa and 500 °C. Steam is vented from the tank through a relief valve to the atmosphere until the pressure in the tank falls to 3,000 kPa. If the venting process is adiabatic, estimate the final temperature of the steam in the tank and the mass of the steam vented.

Answer #1

I have answer to 4000 kPa, 400oC, 3500 kPa. You can calculate the same for your values i.e. 5000 kPa, 500oC, 3000 kPa using steam table F2 in your textbook.

A nonconducting tank of negligible heat capacity and 1 m3 volume is connected to pipeline containing steam at 5 bar and 370℃, filled with steam to a pressure of 5 bar, and disconnected from the pipeline. If the tank initially contains steam at 1 bar and 150℃, how much steam is in the tank at the end of the filling process, and what is its temperature? Note: The answer is 1.56kg and 425c but I can’t figure out how to...

A rigid tank has a volume of 0.01 m3. It initially contains saturated water at a temperature of 200 oC and a quality of 0.4. The top of the tank contains a pressure regulating valve which maintains the vapor at constant pressure. This system undergoes a process where it is heated until all the liquid vaporizes. How much heat in (kJ) is required? You may assume there is no pressure drop in the exit line.

A 1.2 m3 rigid tank initially contains steam at 8 MPa and 400 ◦C. The steam slowly comes out through a hole at the bottom until the pressure drops to P0 while keeps the temperature constant. Making the pertinent considerations determines: a) the heat transferred, in kJ when P0 = 2 MPa. b) graph the heat transfer, in kJ, versus P0 from 0.5 to 8.0 MPa

A 0.2 m3 piston-cylinder initially contains 400 K air. A heavy frictionless piston maintains a pressure of 500 kPa abs. Then, a weakness in the cylinder wall blows out and creates a hole. Air escapes through the hole until the piston drops far enough to cover the hole. At that point, the volume is half the initial volume. During this process, 75 kJ of heat is transferred to the 100 kPa, 300 K surroundings. Using Cp = 1.005 kJ/kg-K and...
