A-C line Liquid R-134a A rigid container containing 6.6 kg of saturated liquid R-134a at 24°C is used to fill an air-conditioning system. A valve is opened and allows liquid R-134a to escape the tank into the A-C line until only 0.49 kg of R-134a remains in the tank, at which point the valve is closed. During the process, heat transfer is allowed to occur maintain the tank temperature at 24°C. What is the quality of the refrigerant inside the tank at the end of the process? What is the total heat transfer for this process? KJ
