A cycle works with one kg of air and is compressed through a polytropic process (pv12 = C) from state-1 at 120 kPa, 350K to state-2 of 600kPa, following a constant pressure cooling process to state-3, then constant temperature heating from state-3 to state-1. Represent the cycle on P-V diagram, find the temperature, pressure and volume at the end of each process of the cycle, and find also the net heat and work done.

Question
A cycle works with one kg of air and is compressed through a polytropic process (pv12 = C)
from state-1 at 120 kPa, 350K to state-2 of 600kPa, following a constant pressure cooling
process to state-3, then constant temperature heating from state-3 to state-1. Represent the cycle
on P-V diagram, find the temperature, pressure and volume at the end of each process of the
cycle, and find also the net heat and work done.
