For isentropic process involving ideal gases, starting with k P1 P2 = k-1 T2 T1 Derive the formula

For a thermodynamic process, when delta Hsys > 0, and delta Ssys < 0, the process is (spontaneous at all temperatures, non-spontaneous at all temperatures or spontaneous only at high temperatures).

CO2 needs to be compressed from p1=1bar, t1=300k to p2=40bar to transport it to remote sites for sequestration. what is the minimum energy requirement per kg of CO2 for the compressor? Should the compressor operate adiabatically or isothermally for the best energy efficiency? The environment is at Tenv=300k. Use accurate thermodynamic data for CO2 in this problem.

A well-insulated 4 × 4 × 5 m³ room, initially at 10 °C, is heated by the radiator of a steam heating system. The radiator has a fixed volume of 150 L and is initially filled with superheated water vapor at 200 kPa and 200 °C. After 30 minutes, the pressure of the steam is observed to drop to 100 kPa as a result of heat transfer to the room. Assume constant specific heats for air. (a) (b) (d) Sketch a thermodynamic diagram for the process of the steam. Determine the final temperature of the steam. Based on the final state you found, make any corrections needed to your diagram in (a). neglected. the air. Write the First Law for the air and steam, and indicate which terms can be Assuming the air has a uniform temperature, find the final temperature of
