Problem 7

• A 20 L portable compressed propane tank is being refilled

where some propane gas was initially present at 1 bar and
30,8°C. This portable tank was then connected to a large
propane storage tank as a source of high pressure
propane gas at 20 bar and 70°C. Calculate the mass of
propane added into the tank at the end of the filling
process if:
• a. Filling was done slowly such that temperature was
always constant at 30,8°C and the process stopped at the
point where the propane vapor became a saturated vapor.
• b. Filling was done rapidly such that the process can be
assumed to be adiabatic and the process stopped at the
point where the propane vapor became saturated vapor
 PROBLEM 7A
• Asumsi: “portable compressed propane tank”
tersebut memiliki volume tetap, yaitu 20 L.
Berdasarkan tabel properties of saturated
propane, propane pada suhu 30,8°C akan
mencapai kondisi saturated vapor pada
tekanan 11 bar.
• tank bertekanan 1 bar dengan suhu 30,8°C diisi
dengan propane suhu 70°C dari tank penampung
bertekanan 20 bar.
• Pengisian dilakukan perlahan pada suhu tetap
(isotermis) sampai propane pada tank 20 L
mencapai kondisi saturated vapor.
• Berdasarkan tabel properties of superheated
propane, propane pada suhu 30,8°C dan tekanan
1 bar memiliki volume spesifik sebesar 0,5629
m3/Kg
• Berdasarkan tabel properties of saturated
propane, propane pada suhu 30,8°C dan tekanan
11 bar memiliki volume spesifik sebesar 0,04174
m3/Kg
• substitusikan nilai volume tank, maka
diperoleh massa propane dalam tank:

𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒
𝑀𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑎 𝐴𝑤𝑎𝑙 = 𝑀𝑖 =
𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑆𝑝𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑓𝑖𝑘
20. 10−3
𝑀𝑖 = = 0,0355 𝐾𝑔
0,5629
𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒
𝑀𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑎 𝐴𝑘ℎ𝑖𝑟 = 𝑀𝑓 =
𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑆𝑝𝑒𝑠𝑖𝑓𝑖𝑘
20. 10−3
𝑀𝑖 = = 0,4792 𝐾𝑔
0,04174
• Maka, massa propane yang ditambahkan:

𝛥𝑀 = 𝑀𝑓 − 𝑀𝑖
𝛥𝑀 = 0,4792 − 0,0355 = 0,4437 𝐾𝑔
 PROBLEM 7B
• asumsikan “portable compressed propane tank”
memiliki volume tetap, yaitu 20 L.
• Hukum 1 Termodinamika sistem tertutup :
𝛥𝑈 = 𝑄 − 𝑊
• Adiabatic  tidak terjadi transfer kalor, sehingga
Q = 0. Volume sistem konstan, sehingga kerjanya
juga nol, atau
W = 0.
• Maka,
ΔU = 0
