Question
Refrigerant 134a is stored inside an uninsulated ridged tank and heated by an electric resistor for 5 minutes. The temp goes from -10 degrees Celsius to 40 degrees Celsius. The refrigerant has a quality of .8 and the tank has a volume of .01m^3. The electrical resistor is powered by a 12V battery with a current of 5 amps. How much energy is lost from the refrigerant through the tank walls during this process.
