First-Law Analysis of Combustion in a Bomb
The constant-volume tank shown in Fig. 15-24 contains 1 lbmol of methane (\mathrm{CH}_{4}) gas and 3 lbmol of \mathrm{O}_{2} at 77°F and 1 atm. The contents of the tank are ignited, and the methane gas burns completely. If the final temperature is 1800 R, determine (a) the final pressure in the tank and (b) the heat transfer during this process.
