The air is first expanded isothermally to 500 kPa, then compressed polytropically with a polytropic exponent of 1.2 to the initial pressure, and finally compressed at the constant pressure to the initial state. Determine the boundary work for each process and the net work of the cycle.

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.

Ammonia in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes two processes in series. Initially, the ammonia is saturated vapour at P₁=1000 kPa. Process 1-2 involves cooling until the piston meets the stops where the position is locked in place at which time quality is x2=75%. The second process from state 2 to state 3, involves heating (at constant volume) until x3=100%. If the mass is 0.45 kg determine: The work for process 2-3 (in kJ). The heat transfer for process 2-3 (in kJ). Sketch the processes on a p-v diagram, what does the area under the curve represent?

Consider a balloon contains initially 40 liter of Helium at 105 kPa and 20 oC, The balloonis connected to a supply line of helium through a valve that is opened allowing helium tofurther fill the balloon to 150 kPa such that pressure in the balloon is expressed as: P =750 V0.5– 45, Where P is in kPa and V is m3. Considering Helium as ideal gas:a- Find the mass of Helium entered the balloon if the process is isothermal.b- Find the work done during the process.
Air as an ideal gas is contained in a piston/cylinder system constrained by a non-linear spring. Initially the gas in the cylinder is at 100 kPa, which is balanced by the atmospheric pressure outside of the cylinder (the weight of the piston is negligible). The force on the spring at the start is zero. The spring force is F=kx². k=600. kNt/m². The cross-sectional area of the piston is 1 m², the initial volume is 1 m³, and the initial temperature is 300 K. Heat is added until the volume of the gas has expanded to 1.5 m³. Find: (a) The work done by the gas on the face of the piston (kJ). (b) The final temperature (K). (c) The amount of heat added (kJ). Hint: This problem is easiest if you calculate the spring work and the atmospheric work separately. Air V₁=1.0 m³ Piston Area = 1.0 m² T₁=300 K P₁=100 kPa Atmospheric P on upper piston face= 100 kPa
An ideal gas is compressed from a volume of V, = 6.00 L to a volume of V, = 3.00 L while in thermal contact with a heat reservoir at T = 295 K as in the figure below. During the compression process, the piston moves down a distance of d = 0.145 m under the action of an average external force of F = 21.0 kN. (a) Find the work done on the gas. kJ (b) Find the change in internal energy of the gas. k) (c) Find the thermal energy exchanged between the gas and the reservoir. kJ (d) If the gas is thermally insulated so no thermal energy could be exchanged, what would happen to the temperature of the gas during the compression? O The temperature would decrease. O The temperature would remain constant. O The temperature would increase.
An ideal gas initially occupying 0.020 m3 at 1.0 MPa is quasistatically expanded inside a piston-cylinder device at a constant pressure until its volume doubles. Next the expansion is continued at constant volume till the pressure reaches half of the initial pressure.
