Question

Transcribed Image Text:Air in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes a Carnot power cycle. For the process
numbers used in this problem refer to Figure 5.13 in the textbook and the figure below
for a T-s diagram. The isothermal expansion and compression occur at 853 K and 295 K
respectively. The pressures at the beginning and the end of the cycle are p₁ = 315 kPa and
p4 = 100 kPa, respectively. Assuming the ideal gas model with constant heat capacity, cp
= 1.005 kJ/kg-K and k = 1.40 determine:
T
a) the pressures p2 and p3.
b) the heat transfer and work for each process.
c) the thermal efficiency.
