The passages discuss various thermodynamic concepts and calculations related to changes in temperature, internal energy, enthalpy, and rate of temperature change when heating substances.

To calculate the change in internal energy, one uses the formula ΔU = mCvΔT, where m is the mass, Cv is the specific heat at constant volume, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

To calculate the rate of temperature change when heating a substance, one uses the formula ΔT/Δt = Q/mCv, where Q is the heat input, m is the mass, and Cv is the specific heat at constant volume.

Find the change in internal energy of 5lbm of oxygen


when the temperature changes from 100F to 120F,
Cv = 0.157 Btu/lbm-R.
a. 14.70 Btu
c. 16.80 Btu
b. 15.70 Btu
d. 147 Btu
Solution:
U = mCvT
T2 = 120F =[120F]+459.67 = 579.67 R
T1 = 100C = [100F]+459.67 = 559.67 R
m = 5 lbm
Cv = 0.157 Btu/lbm-R
= (5lbm)*(0.157 Btu/lbm-R)*(579.67-559.67 R)
= 15.70 Btu (b)

62. Water (Specific heat, Cv = 4.2 kJ/kg-K) is being heated


by 1500-W heater. What is the rate of change in
temperature of 1 kg of water?
a. 0.043 Kelvin/s
c. 0.357 Kelvin/s
b. 0.179 Kelvin/s
d. 1.50 Kelvin/s
Solution:

Q = mCvT
T = Q/mCv

Q = 1500 watts = 1.5 kw = 1.5 kJ/s


Cv = 4.2 kJ/kg-K
m = 1 kg
T = (1.5 kJ/s)/(1 kg * 4.2 kJ/kg-K)
= 0.357 K/s (c)

63. One kilogram of water (Cv = 4.2 kJ/kg-K) is heated by


300 Btu of energy. What is the change in temperature
in K?
a. 75.36 K
c. 73.80 K
b. 125.20 K
d. 17.96 K
Solution:
Q = mCvT
T = Q/mCv
m = 1 kg
Cv = 4.2 kJ/kg-K
Q = 300 Btu (1.055 kJ/Btu) = 316.50 kJ
T = 316.50 kJ / (1 kg * 4.2 kJ/kg-K)
= 75.36 K (a)

64. Determine the change in enthalpy per lb mass of


nitrogen gas as its temperature changes from 500F to
200F. (Cp = 0.2483 Btu/lbm-R)
a. 74.49 Btu/lbm
c. 68.47 Btu/lbm
b. 72.68 Btu/lbm
d. 63.78 Btu/lbm
Solution:
Q = h

h = mCp T ; h/m = Cp T
Cp = 0.2483 Btu/lbm
T2 = 200F =[120F]+459.67 = 659.67 R
T1 = 500C = [100F]+459.67 = 959.67 R
h/m = (0.2483 Btu/lbm) * (659.67-959.67 R)
= - 74.49 Btu/lbm (a)

65. Calculate the change in enthalpy as 1 kg of nitrogen is heated from


1000 K to 1500 K, assuming the nitrogen is an ideal gas at a constant
pressure. The temperature dependent specific heat of nitrogen is
Cp = 39.06 512 T^(-1.5) + 1072.7 T^(-2) 820.4 T^(-3) where Cp is in
kJ.kg-mol, and T is in K.
a. 600 kJ
b. 697.27 kJ

c. 800 kJ
d. 897.27 kJ

Solution:
Cp = h / T ; h = Cp * T
Cp = 39.06 512 T^(-1.5) + 1072.7 T^(-2) 820.4 T^(-3)
T : T2 = 1500 , T1 = 1000
h = Cp * T

66. What is the resulting pressure when one pound of air at


15 psia and 200F is heated at constant volume to 800F?
a. 15 psia
c. 36.4 psia
b. 28.6 psia
d. 52.1 psia
Solution:
P1/T1 = P2/T2
P2 = (P1*T2) / T1
P2 = ( 15 psia * (800+460) ) / (200+460)
= 28.64 psia (b)
