Oxygen (molar mass 32 kg/kmol ) expands reversibly in a cylinder behind a piston at a constant pressure of 3 bar. The volume initially is 0.01 m3 and finally is 0.03 m3; the initial temperature is 18.25 0C. Calculate the mass of oxygen with the correct unit to four decimal places. Assume oxygen to be a perfect gas and take the specific heat at constant pressure as =  0 . 9 1 7 k J / k g K and molar gas constant as  =  8,314  J / kmol K

Work and Heat Transfer

It is generally related to thermal engineering which tells about the use, creation, conversion and transfer of heat energy between the systems. It is also considered that to transfer heat from one source to another, transfer of masses is also required. There are various mechanisms by which, transfer of heat takes place i.e. thermal conduction, convection, radiation or by change of phase. All these mechanisms have their own specific features which sometimes occur simultaneously within the same system.
