Question: Problem 4 ( 1 0 points ) - Energy Balance with R - 1 3 4 a A large rigid tank is 0 . 5
Problem points Energy Balance with Ra
A large rigid tank is in size contains kg of This tank is
initially stored in a cool environment eg air conditioned building and
the a pressure is kPa The tank is then placed outdoors for pick
up by a shipping company. Due to a combination of direct sunlight heating
and hotter outdoor environment, the temperature of the Ra
increases to a steadystate temperature of Celsius. You may assume that changes in kinetic and
potential energy in this problem are negligible.
a Use the property tables for Ra to determine the initial temperature of the Ra when it
was stored in a cool environment. Indicate the phase of the Ra and what table you used eg
Table A
b Determine the pressure of the Ra when it outdoors in the hot environment. Indicate the
phase of the Ra and what table you used. Note: This problem requires linear interpolation of
the Ra tables. Show your work for this linear interpolation ie dont simply use an
onlineelectronic linear interpolation tool You should not need bilinear interpolation for this
problem.
c Calculate the heat transfer that occurred to raise the Ra temperature to Celsius. Indicate
the heat as a positive number that is either in or "out". Note: This problem requires linear
interpolation of the Ra tables. Show your work for this linear interpolation ie dont simply
use an onlineelectronic linear interpolation tool You should not need bilinear interpolation for
this problem
