Nov 7, 2014 at 23:25 comment added Floris One problem you run into when you ask about cu-ft of gas transferred - at what pressure. The volume of the smaller container at the end of 12 minutes is the same as at the start (I assume - you call it a "pressure vessel") - and if you measure the "volume" that flowed through the pipe, the answer is different depending on whether you measure upstream or downstream of the valve (different pressure, so different rate). So can you clarify what you really want to quantify?
Nov 7, 2014 at 22:54 comment added Brandon Enright You probably need to further simplify your question into a conceptual one about gas / fluid flow in and out of a container to get much help.
Nov 7, 2014 at 22:30 comment added Floris The answer to your questions is "yes there is (almost)" and "yes it can" . The only thing missing is: is the rate of flow slow enough that the temperature in the vessels remained constant? Or do we assume adiabatic flow - no heat in and out of the vessels - in which case the higher pressure vessels cools down and the smaller one heats up.
