Summary:: How internal energy changes in a acclerated cabin.

There are two tourus shaped insulated closed pipes containing equal amounts of ideal gas under same conditions.
B has a adiabatic partion wall.
If both are to change angular velocity by w radians per second.
How internal energies will change in both?

What are your thoughts on this so far? Is the torus insulated? Is the gas considered to have viscosity? is this supposed to be a qualitative comparison?
Sorry for hurridly writing the question .Here , w is angular acceleration of taurus w.r.t a perpendicular axis to plane of taurus through centre. Ignore viscus drag.
I need to calculate change in internal energy per second in both cases.
Not getting idea to start.
My basis of thinking is an analogous process in linear motion of a cabin of gas when the cabin gets acclerated linearly.

What is the exact word-for-word statement of this problem?
