A piston-cylinder device contains 0.1 kg of a certain gas (R = 300 J/kg.k, Cv=810 J/kg.k, Cp = 1180 J/kg.k) initially at 3 bar and 30 °C. The gas is first expanded at a constant pressure to 0.05 m³. Then, again expanded Isometrically to 2 bar and finally compressed Polytropically to the initial pressure. Draw the PV diagram of the cycle and then determine: I. The boundary work of the entire cycle (W). Is this a practical cycle? Internal energy change (AU) during the polytropic process. II. III. Heat lost or gained (Q) during the isobaric process.

Question
A piston-cylinder device contains 0.1 kg of a certain gas (R = 300 J/kg.k, Cv=810
J/kg.k, Cp = 1180 J/kg.k) initially at 3 bar and 30 °C. The gas is first expanded at a
constant pressure to 0.05 m³. Then, again expanded Isometrically to 2 bar and finally
compressed Polytropically to the initial pressure. Draw the PV diagram of the cycle and
then determine:
I.
The boundary work of the entire cycle (W). Is this a practical cycle?
Internal energy change (AU) during the polytropic process.
II.
III.
Heat lost or gained (Q) during the isobaric process.
