The work produced by a constant temperature, pressure-volume thermodynamic process can be computed as
where W is work, p is pressure, and V is volume. Using a combination of the trapezoidal rule, Simpson's 1/3 rule, and Simpson's 3/8 rule, use the following data to compute the work in kJ
Pressure (kPa) | 336 | 294.4 | 266.4 | 260.8 | 260.5 | 249.6 | 193.6 | 165.6 |
Volume (m3) | 0.5 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 | 11 |
