Problem: The drawing (not to scale) shows the way in which the pressure and volume change for an ideal gas that is used as the working substance in a Carnot engine. The gas begins at point A (pressure PA, volume VA) and expands isothermally at temperature T until point B (pressure = PB, Volume = VgB) is reached. During this expansion, the input heat of magnitude Qn enters the gas from the hot reservoir of the engine. Then, from point B to point C (pressure Pc, volume = Vc), the gas expands adiabatically. Next, the gas is compressed isothermally at temperature T. from point C to point D (pressure = PD, volume = VD). During this compression, heat of magnitude Q. is rejected to the cold reservoir of the engine. Finally, the gas is compressed adiabatically from point D to point A, where the gas is back in its initial state. The overall process A to B to C to D to A is called a Carnot cycle. Prove for this cycle that Oed - T. The work done P during the cycle equals the area enclosed by the…
E.2) A paint shop compressor has a storage tank for compressed air with a volume of 1 m³. It initially contains air at 1 MPa and 400 K. The feed valve is opened and air flows into the tank until the pressure reaches 5 MPa and the inside temperature is 450 K. At that time the valve closes. Determine the amount of air that was introduced into the tank. Finally, after the tank cools down, it reaches a room temperature of 300 K. Determine the air pressure at that condition.
