Using the data provided here, estimate:

a. The specific volume, in m3/kg, at T = 200C, p = 0.113 Mpa
b. The temperature, in C, at p = 0.12 Mpa, v = 1.85 m3/kg
c. The temperature, in K, at p = 0.11 Mpa, v = 2.20 m3/kg

2. A manometer is attached to a tank of gas in which the pressure is greater than that of
3

the surroundings. The manometer liquid is mercury, with a density of 13.59 g/cm .
The difference in mercury levels in the manometer is 2 cm. The acceleration of
gravity is g = 9.81 m/s2. The atmospheric pressure is 93.0 kPa. Calculate in kPa:
a. The gage pressure of the gas.
b. The absolute pressure of the gas.

3. The

absolute pressure inside a tank is 0.2 bar, and the surroundings atmospheric
pressure is 101 kPa. What reading would a Bourdon gage mounted in the tank will
give, in kPa? Is this a gage or vacuum reading?
