Question:
Two chambers are separated by a partition. One of the chambers is evacuated, and the other has a volume of 1 m3 and contains steam at T = 500°C and P = 10 bar. The partition is removed, allowing the gas to expand into the evacuated chamber. No heat transfer occurs with the surroundings. The final steam pressure is P = 4 bar. Find
A. The mass of steam.
B. The volume of the chamber that was initially evacuated.
C. The change in entropy of the universe resulting from the process.
D. Re-do parts A–C, but this time, instead of steam, assume the 1 m3 chamber was filled with an ideal gas with Cp* = (7/2)R.
