1. An insulated tank having a total volume of 1.62 m3 is divided into two compartments. Initially one
compartment having a volume of 0.54 m3 contains 2 kg of carbon monoxide (CO) at 260oC and the other
contains 0.4 kg of helium (He) at 15oC. The gases are allowed to mix until an equilibrium state is attained.
Determine
a. the final temperature, in oC.
b. the final pressure, in kPa.
c. the entropy generation, in kJ/K.

2. A gas mixture at 1500 K with the molar analysis 10% CO2, 20% H2O, 70% N2 enters a waste-heat boiler
operating at steady state, and exits the boiler at 600 K. A separate stream of saturated liquid water enters
at 25 bar and exits as saturated vapor with a negligible pressure drop. Ignoring stray heat transfer and
kinetic and potential energy changes, determine the mass flow rate of the exiting saturated vapor, in kg per
kmol of gas mixture.

3. A fan within an insulated duct delivers moist air at the duct exit at 22oC, 60% relative humidity, and a
volumetric flow rate of 0.5 m3/s. At steady state, the power input to the fan is 1.3 kW. The pressure in the
duct is nearly 1 atm throughout. Using the psychrometric chart, determine the temperature, in oC, and
relative humidity at the duct inlet.

4. Air at 16oC, 101.3 kPa, and 75% relative humidity enters an insulated compressor operating at steady state
and is compressed to 690 kPa. For the isentropic compressor efficiency of 80%, determine the temperature,
in K, of the exiting air, the work input required, in kJ/kg of dry air flowing, and entropy generation, in
kJ/K/kg of dry air flowing.
