Here is the missing part of the question

To Determine the heat transfer, in kJ if the final temperature in the tank is 110 deg C

Explanation:

The image attached below shows the process on T - v diagram

At State 1:

The first step is to find the vapor pressure

$P_{v1} = \rho_1 P_g_1$

$= \phi_1 P_{x \ at \ 125^0C}$

= 0.5 × 232 kPa

= 116 kPa

The initial specific volume of the vapor is:

$P_{v_1} v_{v_1} = \dfrac{\overline R}{M_v}T_1$

$116 \times 10^3 \times v_{v_1} = \dfrac{8314}{18} \times (125 + 273)$

$116 \times 10^3 \times v_{v_1} = 183831.7778$

$v_{v_1} = 1.584 \ m^3/kg$

At State 1:

The next step is to determine the mass of water vapor pressure.

$m_{v1} = \dfrac{V}{v_{v1}}$

$= \dfrac{2.5}{1.584}$

= 1.578 kg

Using the ideal gas equation to estimate the mass of the dry air m_a $P_{a1} V = m_a \dfrac{\overline R}{M_a}T_1$

$(P_1-P_{v1}) V = m_a \dfrac{\overline R}{M_a}T_1$

$(4-1.16) \times 10^5 \times 2.5 = m_a \dfrac{8314}{28.97}\times ( 125 + 273)$

$710000= m_a \times 114220.642$

$m_a = \dfrac{710000}{114220.642}$

$m_a = 6.216 \ kg$

For the specific volume $v_{v_1} = 1.584 \ m^3/kg$ , we get the identical value of saturation temperature

$T_{sat} = 100 + (110 -100) \bigg(\dfrac{1.584-1.673}{1.210 - 1.673}\bigg)$

$T_{sat} =101.92 ^0\ C$

Thus, at $T_{sat} =101.92 ^0\ C$ , condensation needs to begin.

However, since the exit temperature tends to be higher than the saturation temperature, then there will be an absence of condensation during the process.

Heat can now be determined by using the formula

Q = ΔU + W

Recall that: For a rigid tank, W = 0

Q = ΔU + 0

Q = ΔU

Q = U₂ - U₁

Also, the mass will remain constant given that there will not be any condensation during the process from state 1 and state 2.

At State 1;

The internal energy is calculated as:

$U_1 = (m_a u_a \ _{ at \ 125^0 C})+ ( m_{v1} u_v \ _{ at \ 125^0 C} )$

At T_1 = 125° C, we obtain the specific internal energy of air

SO;

$U_{a \ at \ 125 ^0C } = 278.93 + ( 286.16 -278.93) (\dfrac{398-390}{400-390} )$

$=278.93 + ( 7.23) (\dfrac{8}{10} )$

$= 284.714 \ kJ/kg\\$

At T_1 = 125° C, we obtain the specific internal energy of water vapor

$U_{v1 \ at \ 125^0C} = u_g = 2534.5 \ kJ/kg$

$U_1 = (m_a u_a \ at \ _{ 125 ^0C }) + ( m_{v1} u_v \ at \ _{125^0C} )$

= 6.216 × 284.714 + 1.578 × 2534.5

= 5768.716 kJ

At State 2:

The internal energy is calculated as:

$U_2 = (m_a u_a \ _{ at \ 110^0 C})+ ( m_{v1} u_v \ _{ at \ 110^0 C} )$

At temperature 110° C, we obtain the specific internal energy of air

SO;

$U_{a \ at \ 110^0C } = 271.69+ ( 278.93-271.69) (\dfrac{383-380}{390-380} )$

271.69+ (7.24) (0.3)

$= 273.862 \ kJ/kg\\$

At temperature 110° C, we obtain the specific internal energy of water vapor

$U_{v1 \ at \ 110^0C}= 2517.9 \ kJ/kg$

$U_2 = (m_a u_a \ at \ _{ 110 ^0C }) + ( m_{v1} u_v \ at \ _{110^0C} )$

= 6.216 × 273.862 + 1.578 × 2517.9

= 5675.57 kJ

Finally, the heat transfer during the process is

Q = U₂ - U₁

Q = (5675.57 - 5768.716 ) kJ

Q = -93.146 kJ

with the negative sign, this indicates that heat is lost from the system.

For me a person with a phd and who knows what there talking about.i know the chances of a radiation leak is low but if it does the area within a 96.3 mile radius would be unusable because of contamination

Answer from: Quest

t = 1/400 h ⇔ 0.0025 h ⇔ 9s ⇔ 0.15 m

any of the answers are correct.
