Air in a piston-cylinder occupies a volume of 0.15 m3 at a pressure of 560 kPa. The air expands in a reversible adiabatic process (Isentropic). Air doing the work on the piston caused the volume to increase until it reaches 0.30 m3. Determine the work in the system, in kJ.
A closed system containing a gas undergoes a reversible process from 600 kPa and a volume of 0.15 m3 to a final volume of 0.50 m3. Determine the work, in kJ, done if the pressure distribution is determined to be pV1.4 = C
