Problem 2.32 - Page 80
A gas contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series:
Process 1-2: Constant volume from P1 = 1 [bar], V1 = 4 [𝒎^𝟑] to state 2, where P2 = 2 [bar].
Process 2-3: Compression to V3 = 2 [𝒎^𝟑], during which the pressure-volume relationship is PV = Constant.
Process 3-4: Constant pressure to state 4, where V4 = 1 [𝒎^𝟑]
Sketch the processes in series on P-V coordinates and evaluate the work for each process, in [Kj].
Problem 2.33 - Page 80
Carbon monoxide gas (CO) contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series:
Process 1-2: Expansion from P1 = 5 [bar], V1 = 0.2 [𝒎^𝟑] to V2 = 1 [𝒎^𝟑], during which the pressure –volume relationship is PV=Constant.
Process 2-3: Constant volume heating from state 2 to state 3, where P3 = 5 [bar]
Process 3-1: Constant pressure compression to initial state.
Sketch the processes in series on P-V coordinates and evaluate the work for each process, in [Kj].
