Engineering Thermodynamics (CH161)

Tutorial-5

1. Calculate the total work, in Btu, for process 1–3 shown


in Fig. below.

2. A frictionless piston–cylinder device contains 5 kg of nitrogen


at 100 kPa and 250 K. Nitrogen is now compressed slowly
according to the relation PV1.4 = constant until it reaches a final
temperature of 360 K. Calculate the work input during this
process.

3. A piston–cylinder device with a set of stops initially contains


0.6 kg of steam at 1.0 MPa and 400°C. The location of the stops
corresponds to 40 percent of the initial volume. Now the steam
is cooled. Determine the compression work if the final state is
(a) 1.0 MPa and 2508C and (b) 500 kPa. (c) Also determine the
temperature at the final state in part (b).

4. Complete the table below on the basis of the conservation of energy principle for a closed
system.
Qin Wout E1 E2 m e2 - e1
(kJ) (kJ) (kJ) (kJ) (kg) (kJ/kg)
350 --- 1020 860 3 ---
350 130 550 --- 5 ---
--- 260 600 --- 2 150
-500 --- 1400 900 7 ---
--- -50 1000 --- 3 -200
5. An insulated tank is divided into two parts by a partition. One
part of the tank contains 2.5 kg of compressed liquid water at
60°C and 600 kPa while the other part is evacuated. The
partition is now removed, and the water expands to fill the
entire tank. Determine the final temperature of the water and
the volume of the tank for a final pressure of 10 kPa.

6. Calculate the change in the enthalpy of argon, in kJ/kg, when it is cooled from 75 to 25°C.
If neon had undergone this same change of temperature, would its enthalpy change have
been any different?

7. A student living in a 3-m  4-m  4-m dormitory room turns on her 100-W fan before she
leaves the room on a summer day, hoping that the room will be cooler when she comes
back in the evening. Assuming all the doors and windows are tightly closed and
disregarding any heat transfer through the walls and the windows, determine the
temperature in the room when she comes back 8 h later. Use specific heat values at room
temperature and assume the room to be at 100 kPa and 20°C in the morning when she
leaves.

8. Refrigerant-134a enters the compressor of a refrigeration system as saturated vapor at 0.14


MPa, and leaves as superheated vapor at 0.8 MPa and 60°C at a rate of 0.06 kg/s.
Determine the rates of energy transfers by mass into and out of the compressor. Assume
the kinetic and potential energies to be negligible.
