A reactor filled with water having volume 1 m<sup>3</sup> is at 360 C, 20 MPa and placed inside a containment room which is well insulated and initially evacuated. Due to a failure, the reactor ruptures and water fills the room. Find the minimum room volume so that the final pressure does not exceed 200 kPa.
An insulated cylinder fitted with a piston contains R-12 at 25 C with a quality of 90% and V=45 L. The piston moves and the R-12 expands until it exists as saturated vapour. During this, R-12 does 7kJ of work against the piston. Determine the final temperature, assuming that the process is adiabatic.
A 25 kg mass moving with 25 m/s is brought to a complete stop with a constant deceleration over a period of 5 seconds by a brake system. The brake energy is absorbed by 0.5kg water initially at 100 kPa, 20 C. Assume that the mass is at constant P and T. Find the energy the brake removes from the mass assuming P = C.
2kg water at 120 C with a quality of 25% has its temperature raised 20 C in a constant volume process. What is the heat transfer in the process?
A cylinder with constant volume of 0.1 L contains water at critical point. It then cools down to room temperature of 20 C. Calculate the heat transfer from the water.
Water in a 150L closed, rigid tank is at 100 C, 90% quality. The tank is cooled to 10 C. Calculate the heat transfer during this process.
Ammonia at 0 C, quality 60% is contained in a 200L tank. The tank and ammonia is now heated to a final pressure of 1 MPa. Determine the heat transfer for the process.
A cylinder fitted with a piston contains 2kg of superheated R-134a vapour at 100 C, 350 kPa. The cylinder is then cooled so that R-134a remains at constant pressure till it reaches a quality of 75%. Calculate the heat transfer in this process.
A rigid container has 0.75kg water at 1200 kPa, 300 C. Now, the water is cooled to a final pressure of 300 kPa. Find the heat transfer in the process.
