With reference to Pb. 2.43, assume air to be an ideal gas, and develop an expression giving the household air temperature as a function of time.

Pb. 2.43 inserted image

 

2.43. The heating of a home to increase its temperaature must be modeled as an open system,
because expansion of the household air at constant pressure results in leakage of air
to the outdoors. Assuming that the molar properties of air leaving the home are the
same as those of the air in the home, show that eneregy and mole balances yield the
following differential equation:
é = -PV +n
dn
du
dt
dt
Here, Q is the rate of heat transfer to the air in the home, and t is time. Quantities P.
V,n, and U refer to the air in the home.
