Q2. The project is based on a problem that an insulated container is partially filled witha liquid in gas at an isothermal condition where the fluid temperature is higher than theice temperature. Then, several ice cubes are dropped into the container (see the imagebelow). Regarding this transient process of heat transfer, you are asked to develop aformula based on the first law of thermodynamics to predict the needed ice mass orneeded ice initial temperature to achieve a targeted final temperature at its thermalequilibrium. Assuming that you know the liquid mass, liquid temperature, gas mass,gas temperature and thermodynamics properties of liquid, gas and ice. To simplify theanalysis, let us assume that the mass of gas remains unchanged after the addition of iceto the container and the process of heat transfer in the container is isobaric. To derive apractical cquation for the analysis described herein, how do you make assumptionsand simplify the first law of the thermodynamics based on the equation shown inProblem 1-Q2? List the notations for each parameter and variable in the equationproposed by you.
