There are two commands that change the working directory: :cd,
which is global, and :lcd, which is window-local. There is no
change-directory command whose scope is a tab.
That said, you could use the TabEnter autocommand event and a
tab-local variable to :cd to the working directory you define for
each tab. That is, in each tab you could execute
:let t:wd = "some/directory"
and in your ~/.vimrc you could have an autocommand something like
this:
au TabEnter * if exists("t:wd") | exe "cd" t:wd | endif
See
:help TabEnter
:help t:var
