Refrigerant-134a at 800 kPa and 25°C is throttled to a temperature of 20°C. Determine the pressure and the internal energy of the refrigerant at the final state.

In a gasoline engine, the cylinder conditions are 1.2 MPa and 450°C before the combustion and 1900°C after it. Determine the pressure at the end of the combustion process

A commercial airliner is flying at an altitude where the temperature and pressure of the air are -50°C and 26.5 kPa. An engine-driven compressor will take this air at T= -50°C, P₁ = 26.5 kPa and compress it to P₂ = P₂ = 85.0 kPa to pressurize the cabin. The air will be very hot when it exits the compressor, so a heat exchanger will be used to cool the air to T, = 20°C before it enters the cabin. Cold air at T₁ = -50°C will be used in the heat exchanger to cool the cabin air, and this air will exit the heat exchanger at T = 20°C (this air will be used to heat the cargo bay). The mass flow rate of the air delivered to the cabin is 0.80 kg/s and the compressor efficiency is 75%. Model the air as an ideal gas having constant specific heat, using 300 K values from Cengel's tables posted on Canvas. a) Find the actual temperature of the air exiting the compressor and the power input to the compressor (answers: 67.6°C and 94.5 kW). b) Find the rate of heat transfer in the heat exchanger and…

A piston cylinder contains 1.25 kg water at 25°C with a constant load on the piston such that the pressure is 300 kPa. A nozzle in a line to the cylinder is opened to enable flow to the outside atmosphere at 100 kPa and 25°C. The process continues until 85% of the initial mass has flowed out. At this point, the temperature of water increased by 10°C. Assume that the process is done in an Water isobaric manner. Write the mass and energy balance equations and calculate the work (kJ) and heat (kJ) involved in the process if the exit velocity is 40 m/s. For compressed liquid, assume the substance is a saturated liquid at the given temperature.
