The mass of the piston is such that a pressure of 200 kPa is required to raise the piston. The valve is opened slightly and air is allowed to flow into the cylinder until the pressure of the tank drops to 200 kPa. During this process, heat is exchanged with the surrounding such that the entire air remains at 30oC at all times. Determine the heat transfer for this process.arrow_forwardAt a flow rate of .5000 m3 / h, saturated air at a temperature of 2 ° C is heated sensibly up to a temperature of 40 ° C with the help of a heating coil.
