Instructor: Hacker Engineering 232 Sample Exam 2 Solutions
Instructor: Hacker Engineering 232 Sample Exam 2 Solutions Print your name neatly. If you forget to write your name, or if I can’t read your writing, you can lose up to 100 points. Answer all the questions that you can. Circle your answers. You must show your work. You will not receive credit for lucky guesses. Show your work as clearly as you can: if I can’t understand how you got an answer, I will not give you credit for it. Remember, I know how to solve the problem; and to make matters worse, I have a lot of training in following logical arguments! Warning: The definition of “little or no work” will be determined by the instructor, not the student. Grading rules. Except for problem 1, each problem will be graded on a scale of 0 to 10 points. A grading algorithm is given with the problem. The algorithm is based on a series of steps that you should follow in solving the problem. You should try to learn these steps: in the future, you may find yourself facing difficult problems with no steps laid out for you to follow. On any problems, clarity is as important as the correct procedure and the correct answer. If you do not clearly label your steps, and your work within those steps, then I will grade your work as wrong. I will not waste time struggling to read an incoherent mess that is purported to be the solution; and after the exam is handed in and graded, I will not improve your grade based on your explanation of what you were trying to say. One purpose of these problems is to teach you how to lay out a logical argument that someone else with a technical background can follow. If in doubt, write it down! I refuse to look at it before you turn it in and tell you if there is enough detail! I also refuse to give you any hints, or tell you if you are on the right track. If you are unable to do this, then you should not and will not get credit for the problems. If you solve the wrong problem, you will receive 0 points, even if your solution to the wrong problem is correct. You are responsible for reading the problem correctly. If you think a problem is ambiguous, you should ask the instructor for clarification. For maximum partial credit be sure to write down: Step 1 (4 out of 10 points): (i) identify the system, (ii) what you are given, (iii) what you want, (iv) draw a picture, and (v) list any assumptions that you need to make to solve the problem: for example, “the pressure is constant”, “the system is a closed system”, etc. If there are multiple parts, be sure and label the answer for each part. The “Give up” option: If you have no idea how to solve the problem, you can write “Give up” and circle it instead of writing nonsense in hopes of getting partial credit. If I see “Give up”, I will ignore everything else that you’ve written and award you 3 out of 10 points for the problem. This is your reward for knowing what you don’t know, and for being honest about it. Thermodynamics 232, Sample Exam 2 Copyright ©Wayne Hacker 2009. All rights reserved.2 Problem 1.

Thermodynamics 232, Sample Exam 2 Copyright ©Wayne Hacker 2009. All rights reserved.6 Problem 4. (An application of the ideal gas law using specific heat) The apparatus: Two closed rigid insulated containers with volumes − V 1 and − V 2 are connected by an insulated pipe with an insulated valve. The containers are filled with a gas with a specific gas Rgas . In general, − V 1 6= − V 2 , the amount of gas, temperature, and pressure in each container is different. The given initial conditions: Container 1: mass m1,i , temperature T1,i , and pressure P1,i . Container 2: mass m2,i , temperature T2,i , and pressure P2,i . The process: The valve is then opened and the gases are allowed to mix. The final state of the system: We wait a long time until the gas reaches equilibrium. The assumptions: We assume that the conditions are such that we can treat the gas as an ideal gas with constant specific heat cv . Questions: (a) Derive a formula for the final mass distribution for each in each container for the general case stated above. (b) To simplify the mathematics in this second part we assume − V1 = − V 2 and m1,i = m2,i . Derive a formula for the final specific internal energy u in terms of the gas constant Rgas and the specific heat cv and use this result to determine a formula for temperature and pressure. Note: The simplifying assumption in part (b) is not necessary, after you work out the special case, you should try to work out the general case. m1,i T1,i P1,i − V1 valve insulated pipe container 1 m2,i T2,i P2,i − V2 container 2 Figure 1: The initial state of the system Solution: Start by writing down a diagram of the final state. m1,f Tf Pf − V2 container 1 valve insulated pipe m2,f Tf Pf − V2 container 2 Figure 2: The final state of the system Thermodynamics 232, Sample Exam 2 Copyright ©Wayne Hacker 2009. All rights reserved.7 m1,i given: initial state of container 1: T1,i P1,i given properties: want: Rgas − V1 − V2 m2,i and initial state of container 2: T2,i P2,i (see assumptions and observations below) Tf = T1,f = T2,f P = P = P f 1,f 2,f m1,f 6= m1,i (in general) m2,f 6= m2,i (in general) (see assumptions and observations below) system: The gas contained in both containers. Assumptions: 1. The system is closed ⇒ mtotal = m1 + m2 = constant. 2. The containers are rigid ⇒ − V1 = − V 1,i = − V 1,f and − V2 = − V 2,i = − V 2,f ⇒− V total = − V1 +− V 2 = constant. 3. Since the containers, connecting pipe, and valve are insulated, Qsys = 0. 4. We assume that the gas in equilibrium in both the initial and final states. 5. Since there are no moving boundaries, except the tiny valve, there is negligible work done on the system: Wsys = 0. 6. Since the containers are at rest, and the fluid is at rest in the initial and final states of the system, we can ignore any change in K.E. and P.E. of the system: ∆KE = ∆PE = 0. 7. In the final state the gas between the two containers is well-mixed and “connected” to one another. It follows that all of their intensive properties must be the same. In particular, Tf = T1,f = T2,f , Pf = P1,f = P2,f , vf = v1,f = v2,f , and uf = u1,f = u2,f . However, the extensive properties of the two containers are in general not equal to one another: − V 1 6= − V 2 , m1,i 6= m2,i , m1,f 6= m2,f . This is why we always distinguish between extensive and intensive properties! Observations: Thermodynamics 232, Sample Exam 2 Copyright ©Wayne Hacker 2009. All rights reserved.8 1. In practice, we would need to verify that we have an ideal gas by showing that the reduced pressure and reduced temperature satisfy the standard conditions for an ideal gas: PR 1 (“low pressure”) and TR 1 (“high temperature”) . A quick check of the compressibility shows that Z ≈ 1 ⇒ under these conditions. In fact, these conditions can be relaxed to allow TR ≈ 1 provided that PR 1. 2. As already stated, since pressure and temperature are intrinsic properties of the system, it follows from the assumption that the final state is equilibrium that the pressure and temperature must be the same for both containers. Were this not the case, then the pressure difference would lead to gas flowing from the high-pressure container to the low-pressure container, violating the equilibrium assumption. Similarly, were there a temperature gradient between the two containers, then there would be a flow of heat, which would violate the equilibrium assumption. Therefore, we have Pf = P1,f = P2,f and Tf = T1,f = T2,f . 3. The 1st Law of Thermodynamics reduces to the simplified equation: ∆E = ∆KE + ∆PE + ∆U = Qsys − Wsys ⇒ ∆U = 0 . 4. Because our system is the sum of the gas in two separate containers, we need to be careful how we express the internal energy U . If the system can be modeled as an ideal gas, then U = U (T ). Since u = u(T ) is an intrinsic property, we must have u1 (Tf ) = u2 (Tf ); however, U1 (Tf ) 6= U2 (Tf ), since U is an extrinsic property and we have made no assumption regarding the size of the containers. Thus, our governing equation, which is just the first law of thermo, becomes: ∆U (T ) = Uf (T ) − Ui (T ) = 0 +U −−−−−i−→ Uf (T ) = Ui (T ) expand by container −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→ U1 (Tf ) + U2 (Tf ) = U1 (T1,i ) + U2 (T2,i ) express as specific quantities −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→ m1,f u(Tf ) + m2,f u(Tf ) = m1,i u1 (T1,i ) + m2,i u2 (T2,i ) factor −−−−−−→ (m1,f + m2,f )u(Tf ) = m1,i u1 (T1,i ) + m2,i u2 (T2,i ) m1,i +m2,i =mtotal=m1,f +m2,f −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→ (m1,i + m2,i )u(Tf ) = m1,i u1 (T1,i ) + m2,i u2 (T2,i ) ÷ (m1,i +m2,i ) m1,i u1 (T1,i ) + m2,i u2 (T2,i ) −−−−−−−−−−−→ u(Tf ) = (m1,i + m2,i ) From the above calculation we find an expression for the intensive variable of specific internal energy. Since it’s an intensive variable it can be applied to each container, or to the entire system. m1,i m2,i u(Tf ) = u1 (T1,i ) + u2 (T2,i ) . (0.1) m1,i + m2,i m1,i + m2,i Thermodynamics 232, Sample Exam 2 Copyright ©Wayne Hacker 2009. All rights reserved.9 Solution to Part (a) We now work out the expression for the final mass distribution in each container. To do this we take advantage of the fact that in the final state the gas in each container is connected and therefore must be in equilibrium. This means that the final intensive variables must the same in both containers. In particular, the specific volume (and density) must be the same: vf = v1,f = v2,f . We can now use the definition of specific volume for the two-container system and the above equations to get an expression for the final mass distribution in each container. v1,f = v2,f = vf = − V total mtotal (0.2) Lastly, applying the definition of specific volume to each container in the final state together with the results in equation (0.2) gives the desired result: − V1 − V − V 1 total mtotal = v1,f ≡ m1,f = − m V total m1,f total ⇒ (0.3) − V total − V2 − V 2 = v2,f ≡ m2,f = mtotal mtotal m2,f − V total Notice that the initial mass distribution need not satisfy this relationship, in fact, it can be anything because it is the designer that chooses the initial distribution, but once the value is turned, nature takes over and there is only one possible outcome. This completes part (a). Solution to Part (b) We now examine the special case: − V1 = − V 2 and m1,i = m2,i . From equation (0.3) we get m1 = m1,i = m1,f and m2 = m2,i = m2,f . (∗) Substituting equation (∗) into equation (0.1) yields m2 m1 u(Tf ) = u1 (T1,i ) + u2 (T2,i ) m1 + m2 m1 + m2 ·(m1 +m2 ) −−−−−−−−−→ (m1 + m2 )u(Tf ) = m1 u1 (T1,i ) + m2 u2 (T2,i ) (rearrange terms) −−−−−−−−−−−−−→ m1 u(Tf ) − u1 (T1,i ) + m2 u(Tf ) − u2 (T2,i ) = 0 (intensive variable property) −−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−→ m1 u1 (Tf ) − u1 (T1,i ) + m2 u2 (Tf ) − u2 (T2,i ) = 0 (definition of ∆u) −−−−−−−−−−−−−→ m1 ∆u1 + m2 ∆u2 = 0 (0.4) Here we used the fact that the internal energy is an intensive variable, so that it is the same in each container in the final equilibrium state: u(Tf ) = u1 (Tf ) = u2 (Tf ).

We expect the final temperature to lie between the minimum temperature of the two containers and the maximum temperature of the two containers (i.e., T1,i < Tf < T2,i . This temperature range is assumed to be moderate in order to justify our assumption that the specific heat is nearly constant over this range, so in practice, we could approximate cv as the average over the temperature range: cv (T1,i ) + cv (T2,i ) . cv ≈ 2 Recall that if the specific heat is constant, then ∆u = cv ∆T, . Substituting this result into equation (0.4) yields m1 (cv ∆T1 ) + m2 (cv ∆T2 ) = 0 ÷ cv 6=0 −−−−−−−→ m1 ∆T1 + m2 ∆T2 = 0 expand −−−−−−−→ m1 (Tf − T1,i ) + m2 (Tf − T2,i ) = 0 solve −−−−−−→ Tf = m1 T1,i + m2 T2,i . m1 + m2 We can find the final pressure by using the ideal gas equation: Rgas (m1 + m2 )Tf − V total sub for Tf Rgas (m1 T1,i + m2 T2,i ) −−−−−−−−−→ Pf = − V total m1 T1,i + m2 T2,i − V total =V −1 +V −2 −−−−−−−−−−−−→ Pf = Rgas . − V1 +− V2 Pf =
