IDEAL GASES
• Model for behavior of real gases
• A gas whose absolute pressure, absolute temperature, and specific volume obey the equation of state
IDEAL GASES
• At low pressures and high temperatures, gases can be modeled by a simple equation - the ideal gas equation of state:
• Where = specific volumeR = specific gas constant
p = pressure
T = temperature
p RT
Specific Gas Constant
• The symbol R is called specific gas constant.
• Value depends on the particular gas being considered
• Can be determined by the equation:

EXAMPLE 1
• Determine the density and specific volume of air at room conditions. Assume near sea level.
EXAMPLE 2
• The volume of the passenger compartment of an aircraft is 2100 m3 An equipment maintains the air inside the plane at a pressure of 98 kPa and a temperature of 23˚C.
• A)Calculate the mass of air inside the plane
• B) Determine the percent increase in the mass of air if the pressure is increased to 101 kPa and the temperature drops to 20˚C.
EXAMPLE 3
• A worker pressurized a rigid pipe with dry air to check for leaks. The temperature and absolute pressure of air in the pipes were 35˚C and 250 kPa, respectively. After 24 hours, the worker returns and finds out that the absolute pressure drops to 183 kPa, while the air temperature inside the pipe decreases to 21˚C. Has air leaked out of the pipe? If yes, calculate the mass of air that has leaked out through the fittings.
• The pipe has an inside diameter of 30 mm and length of 20 m.
Activity
• Determine the mass of helium at 600 kPa, 40˚C, to fill up a container with a volume of 35 m3.
• A spherical balloon 3.2 m in diameter contains hydrogen at 25˚C and absolute pressure of 100 kPa. Compute the mass of hydrogen in the balloon.
