A 1m3 air tank is initially at 100 kPa and 17 degrees Celsius. It is to be filled by a compressor that delivers air at 700 kPa and 52 degrees Celsius. When the tank is filled it is allowed to reach thermal equilibrium and the tank is at 17 degrees Celsius and 600 kPa.
Determine the amount and direction of heat transfer between the tank and surroundings. (Hint: first find the initial mass of air in the tank, the final mass of air in the tank, and the mass of air that entered the tank. Remember the ideal gas law applies to this scenario.)

Air enters a compressor operating at steady state at a pressure of 100 kPa, a temperature of 290 K, and with a mass flow rate of 0.72 kg/s. At the exit, the pressure is 700 kPa and the temperature is 450 K. Heat transfer from the compressor to its surroundings occurs at a rate of 3 kW. Kinetic and potential energy changes can be ignored. Determine the power input to the compressor, in kW. Assume that the air is an...

A 2.2-m3 rigid tank initially contains air at 100 kPa and 22°C. The tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. Air is flowing in the supply line at 600 kPa and 22°C. The valve is opened, and air is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. A thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the air temperature at the final state is...

Problem 6.149 A rigid tank is filled initially with 5.0 kg of air at a pressure of 0.4MPa and a temperature of 500 K. The air is allowed to discharge through a turbine into the atmosphere, developing work until the pressure in the tank has fallen to the atmospheric level of 0.1 MPa. Employing the ideal gas model for the air, determine the maximum theoretical amount of work that could be developed, in kJ. Ignore heat transfer with the atmosphere...

A rigid copper tank, initially containing 1 m^3 of air at 295K, 5 bar, is connected by a valve to a large supply line carrying air at 295K, 15 bar. The valve is opened only as long as required to fill the tank with air to a pressure of 15 bar. Finally, the air in the tank is at 310 K. The copper tank, which has a mass of 20 kg, is at the same temperature as the air in...
