Problem 5
A closed piston/cylinder device contains 0.2 kg of air initially at 300 K and 100 kPa. The air is
now slowly compressed in an isothermal process to a final pressure of 250 kPa. Assume the
air is an ideal gas with constant specific heat: Cp = 1.004 kJ/kg-K, Cv= 0.717 kJ/kg-K. The
molecular weight for air is 29 kg/kmol.
Draw a schematic and list the necessary assumptions.
Determine the volume in m³ of the air at the initial state.
Determine the temperature and volume of the air at the final state.
Determine the work in kJ during the process. Is the work done by the air or on
the air?
Determine the heat transfer in kJ during the process. Is a heat input or output?
