An expansion vessel works by absorbing excess pressure in a closed heating system. When the water in the system heats up and expands, the expansion vessel allows the water to expand into a flexible membrane inside the vessel, preventing the pressure from getting too high. This helps to maintain a stable pressure level in the system, preventing damage and ensuring efficient operation.
The pressure inside will be the same as what the atmospheric pressure was when the lid was closed as long as no heat is added or removed.
The gas molecules gain energy from the heat and so they speed up, causing the pressure to increase.
creates pressure
At isobaric (pressure) expansion (volume increase) the temperature will increase because V is proportional to T for the same amount of gas (closed container) at constant pressure.
In a closed system, pressure can cause heat through a process called adiabatic heating. This occurs when the pressure of a gas in the system increases, leading to an increase in temperature without any heat being added or removed from the system.
The answer is that a closed fire is best for heating a house.
Heating a gas in a closed container would increase it's pressure. This would happen because when you heat the gas, the particles' kinetic energy increases, making them move faster, and more. They will hit the sides of the container and create pressure.

Heating the air in a closed bottle will increase the temperature of the air, causing the air molecules to move faster and exert more pressure on the walls of the bottle. This increased pressure can lead to the bottle expanding or potentially even bursting if the pressure becomes too high.
When a closed container is heated, internal pressure is generated due to the expansion of food contents. Not only that, the air/gas in the headspace is expanding too.
Expansion tanks are not always required for water heaters, but they can help prevent pressure buildup in the system, especially in closed-loop systems. It is recommended to consult with a professional to determine if an expansion tank is necessary for your specific water heater setup.
An expansion tank is recommended for water heaters to help regulate pressure and prevent damage to the system. It is especially important for closed-loop systems or when the water heater is connected to a backflow preventer.
