Four kilograms of carbon monoxide (CO) is contained in a rigid tank with a volume of 1 m3. The tank is fitted with a paddle wheel that transfers energy to the CO at a constant rate of 14 W for 1 h. During the process, the specific internal energy of the carbon monoxide increases by 10 kJ/kg. If no overall changes in kinetic and potential energy occur, determine: (a) the specific volume of the carbon monoxide at the final state, in m3/kg. (b) the energy transfer by work from the carbon monoxide, in kJ. (c) the energy transfer by heat transfer to the carbon monoxide, in kJ.

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 1 m^3/Kg  

b) 504 kJ

c) 514 kJ

Explanation:

Given  

-The mass of C_o2 = 1 kg  

-The volume of the tank V_tank = 1 m^3  

-The added energy E = 14 W  

-The time of adding energy t = 10 s  

-The increase in specific internal energy Δu = +10 kJ/kg  

-The change in kinetic energy ΔKE = 0 and The change in potential energy  

ΔPE =0  

Required  

(a)Specific volume at the final state v_2

(b)The energy transferred by the work W in kJ.  

(c)The energy transferred by the heat transfer W in kJ and the direction of  

the heat transfer.  

Assumption  

-Quasi-equilibrium process.  

Solution  

(a) The volume and the mass doesn't change then, the specific volume is constant.

 v= V_tank/m ---> 1/1= 1 m^3/Kg  

(b) The added work is defined by.  

W =E * t --->  14 x 10 x 3600 x 10^-3 = 504 kJ  

(c) From the first law of thermodynamics.  

Q - W = m * Δu

Q = (m * Δu) + W--> (1 x 10) + 504 = 514 kJ

The heat have (+) sign the n it is added to the system.
