Question

An adiabatic \(0.2-m^{3}\) storage tank that is initially evacuated is connected to a supply line that carries nitrogen at and . A valve is opened, and nitrogen flows into the tank from the supply line. The valve is closed when the pressure in the tank reaches . Determine the final temperature in the tank

(a) treating nitrogen as an ideal gas, and

using generalized charts. Compare your results to the actual value of .

Solution

Step 1 of 6)

The first step in solving 12 problem number 88 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: An adiabatic \(0.2-m^{3}\) storage tank that is initially evacuated is connected to a supply line that carries nitrogen at and . A valve is opened, and nitrogen flows into the tank from the supply line. The valve is closed when the pressure in the tank reaches . Determine the final temperature in the tank (a) treating nitrogen as an ideal gas, and using generalized charts. Compare your results to the actual value of .
From the textbook chapter Thermodynamic Property Relations you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
