CALC A TS-Diagram. (a) Graph a Carnot cycle, plotting

Chapter 20, Problem 20.60

(choose chapter or problem)

CALC A TS-Diagram. (a) Graph a Carnot cycle, plotting Kelvin temperature vertically and entropy horizontally. This is called a temperatureentropy diagram, or TS-diagram. (b) Show that the area under any curve representing a reversible path in a temperatureentropy diagram represents the heat absorbed by the system. (c) Derive from your diagram the expression for the thermal efficiency of a Carnot cycle. (d) Draw a temperatureentropy diagram for the Stirling cycle described in 20.52. Use this diagram to relate the efficiencies of the Carnot and Stirling cycles.
