An air-standard dual cycle has a compression ratio of 14. At the beginning of compression, p1 = 14.5 lbf/in.2, V1 = 0.5 ft3, and T1 = 50°F. The pressure doubles during the constant-volume heat addition process.


For a maximum cycle temperature of 3500°R, determine:

(a) the heat addition to the cycle, in Btu.

(b) the net work of the cycle, in Btu.

(c) the percent thermal efficiency.

(d) the mean effective pressure, in lbf/in.2
