A 3"-diameter, 5"-long gas-piston assembly contains air at STP. (STP: Standard Temperature and Pressure conditions, 300K and 1 atm. At these conditions the air density is approximately 1.2kg/m3.) Calculate the necessary piston displacement in order to increase the pressure to 45 atm (typical of a diesel engine) varying linearly with displacement (i.e. the pressure varies linearly with displacement) during an adiabatic compression that will increase the gas’ internal energy by 1.2kJ.

A gas turbine operates as a cold-air standard Brayton cycle. Air enetrs the compressor at 300K and 100kPa and is compressed to 700kPa. During the heat addition process in the combustor, the temperature of the air increases to 1000K. The turbine and compressor can be assumed to be operating isentropically. Evaluate specific heat at 300K. a. thermal efficiency of the cycle? b. net work of the cycle (kj/kg)? c. Back work ratio?

Two kilograms of CO2 gas is contained in a piston-cylinder assembly at a pressure of 6.5 bar and a temperature of 300 K. The piston has a mass of 5000 kg and surface area of 1m2. The friction of the piston on the walls is significant and cannot be ignored. The atmospheric pressure is 1.01325 bar. The latch holding the piston in position is suddenly removed and the gas is allowed to expand. The expansion is arrested when the volume...
