Calculate the amount of gas required
Thread Content
Suddenly, I couldn’t keep up. For example, if I have a gas pressure of 1 MPa and I fill a spherical tank with a volume of 2000 m3 until the pressure reaches 2 MPa, then is the amount of gas used 2000 m3 or 4000 m3? I’d like to hear everyone’s opinions, thank you
According to PV=NRT, if the temperature remains constant and the pressure doubles, the volume is halved.
The calculation based on the ideal gas law gives 4000

First, you need to realize this: gas at 1MPa cannot be pressurized to 2MPa
I also want to remind the original poster that this process cannot be carried out without auxiliary pressurization. No amount of 1MPa gas can pressurize the other container to 2MPa; at most, it can bring that container to a pressure of 1MPa.
Let’s do a software simulation; however, a pressure booster pump needs to be added
