Question 1.(25 points) A house with a floor area of 100m2 and a ceiling height of 3m contains 12000 moles of air. Heating
the house supplies an internal energy gain of 0.1Js per mole of air at a constant pressure of 1 bar. This heating process
induces expansion of air that results with an unintended air leakage to the outdoors at a rate of 0.04mols. The leaking air
is assumed to have the same composition, temperature, pressure, and molar properties as the indoor air.
a) Draw a simple sketch showing the system boundaries and flowing streams with their properties.
b) Show the mass (mole) and energy balances. List all assumptions.
c) Calculate the total rate of heat transfer to the air in the house in kW.
