Question:

An evacuated 100-L rigid tank is connected to a line flowing R-142b gas, chlorodifluoroethane, at 2 MPa, 100C. The valve is opened, allowing the gas to flow into the tank for a period of time and then it is closed. Eventually, the tank cools to ambient temperature, 20C, at which point it contains 50% liquid, 50% vapor, by volume. Calculate the quality at the final state and the heat transfer for the process. The ideal-gas specific heat of R-142b is C = 0.787 kJ/kg K.
