A transportation company specializes in the shipment of pressurized gaseous materials. An order is received from 100 liters of a particular gas at STP (32°F and 1 atm). What minimum volume tank is necessary to transport the gas at 80°F and maximum pressure of 8 atm?

A steel cylindrical air receiver with 5 ft. diameter and pressure load of 180 psi, design stress of 9500 psi maximum. The pressure vessel is to be provided with 1 ½ in. diameter drain valve installed at the bottom of the vessel and safety pressure relief valve installed either at the top most or at the side with pop – out rating of 200 psi. Assume a 100% weld joint efficiency. The lap welding tensile strength is 65,000 psi. Determine the bursting pressure of this air receiver.

1. Calculate the quantity of heat energy which must be transferred to 2.25 kg of brass to 
raise its temperature from 20 ℃ to 240 ℃ if the specific heat of brass is 394 J.kg-K.

2. Find the change in temperature produced by 10 kJ of heat energy added to 500 g 
copper. Specific heat of copper 0.39 kJ/kg-K.

3. Explain why, for a gas, the specific heat at constant volume has a different value 
from the specific heat at constant pressure.
An ideal gas is contained in a cylinder fitted with a piston. Initially the temperature of the 
gas is 15℃. If the mass of the gas is 0.035 kg, calculate the quantity of heat energy 
required to raise the temperature of the gas to 150 ℃ when:
(a) The piston is fixed;
(b) The piston moves and the pressure is constant.
For the gas, 𝑐𝑣 = 676 J/kg-K and 𝑐𝑝 = 925 J/kg-K.
