    This document contains 5 questions related to thermodynamics. Question 1 asks to determine the heat transfer for a tank initially containing a liquid-vapor mixture that is emptied of vapor. Question 2 asks to show enthalpy is constant for an adiabatic throttling process. Question 3 asks to compute heat, work, internal energy, and entropy changes along three paths to compress and heat a gas. Question 4 asks to calculate the adiabatic flame temperature for burning methane in excess air. Question 5 asks to plot the temperature variation over time for a mixed tank of water with inlet and outlet flows and a cooling coil removing energy.

    Tutorial – 2

    Question 1: A tank having a volume of 0.85 m3 initially contains water as a two-phase


    liquid–vapour mixture at 260oC and a quality of 0.7. Saturated water vapour at 260oC is
    slowly withdrawn through a pressure-regulating valve at the top of the tank as energy is
    transferred by heat to maintain the pressure constant in the tank. This continues until the tank
    is filled with saturated vapour at 260oC. Determine the amount of heat transfer, in kJ. Neglect
    all kinetic and potential energy effects.

    Question 2: Show that in an adiabatic throttling process enthalpy is held constant.

    Question 3: One mole of a gas at a temperature of 25oC and a pressure of 1 bar (the initial
    state) is to be heated and compressed in a frictionless piston and cylinder to 300oC and 10 bar
    (the final state). Compute the heat, work required, the change in the internal energy and the
    entropy change along each of the following paths.
    Path A. Isothermal (constant temperature) compression to 10 bars, and then isobaric (constant
    pressure) heating to 300°C.
    Path B. Isobaric heating to 300oC followed by isothermal compression to 10 bars.
    Path C. A compression in which PVγ = constant, where γ = Cp/Cv, followed by an isobaric
    cooling or heating, if necessary, to 300°C.
    For simplicity, the gas is assumed to be ideal with Cp = 35 J/(mol K). Comment on the
    observations obtained from the problem.

    Question 4: Calculate the adiabatic flame temperature of CH4 burned in 50% excess air
    inside an adiabatic burner. Assume that CH4 and air enters the burner at 298.15 K and
    complete combustion takes place.
    CH4 + 2O2  CO2+2H2O ( H of = -803.029 kJ )
    Compound a b*103 c d e*10-5
    O2 30.255 4.207 0 0 -1.887
    CO2 45.369 8.688 0 0 -9.619
    H2O 28.850 12.055 0 0 1.006
    N2 27.270 4.930 0 0 0.333

    Question 5: A tank containing 45 kg of liquid water initially at 45oC has one inlet and one
    exit with equal mass flow rates. Liquid water enters at 45oC and a mass flow rate of 270 kg/h.
    A cooling coil immersed in the water removes energy at a rate of 7.6 kW. The water is well
    mixed by a paddle wheel so that the water temperature is uniform throughout. The power
    input to the water from the paddle wheel is 0.6 kW. The pressures at the inlet and exit are
    equal and all kinetic and potential energy effects can be ignored. Plot the variation of water
    temperature with time.
