A rigid tank of volume 1.5 m 3 initially contains atmospheric air at 20C and 150 kPa.
Question:
A rigid tank of volume 1.5 m3 initially contains atmospheric air at 20°C and 150 kPa. Now a compressor is turned on, and atmospheric air at a constant rate of 0.05 m3/s is supplied to the tank. If the pressure and density in the tank varies as P/ρ1.4 = constant during charging,
(a) Obtain a relation for the variation of pressure in the tank with time
(b) Calculate how long it will take for the absolute pressure in the tank to triple.
