Applying the Entropy Balance: Control VolumesAn insulated,

Chapter 6, Problem 118P

(choose chapter or problem)

An insulated, rigid tank whose volume is \(0.5 \mathrm{\ m}^{3}\) is connected by a valve to a large vessel holding steam at 40 bar, \(500^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The tank is initially evacuated. The valve is opened only as long as required to fill the tank with steam to a pressure of 20 bar. Determine (a) the final temperature of the steam in the tank, in \({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), (b) the final mass of the steam in the tank, in kg, and (c) the amount of entropy produced, in kJ/K.
