More specificity Thank for the response. I will try to be more specific in defining the problem by using a example. Suppose we have a 1 m cube box with fully rigid walls. Air is trapped in the chamber at 100 kPa. The bottom of the cube is externally forces to 24C and the top is forced to...

I would like some insight on a problem I have been working on. I have a seal container of air where the outside chamber has a slight temperature differential between top and bottom. I understand this causes a density variation in the air between the top and bottom of the chamber. Now I am...

I have a practical problem that I am trying to solve regarding using air chambers. I hope someone can help me with the problem. I have two air chambers connected by a tubing and a valve. One is pumped to a low pressure, chamber A (~30 kPa), and the other is at near atmospheric pressure...

Suppose there is a square box with an ideal gas inside at standard temperature and pressure. Now one side of the box is heated up while the other opposite side remains at room temperature (assume a large heat sink). It is clear the temperature distribution of the gas inside the chamber will...
