Chapter 2, Problem 33P(choose chapter or problem)
Carbon monoxide gas ( CO ) contained within a piston cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series:
Process 1-2: Expansion from \(p_1=5\) bar, \(V_1=0.2 \mathrm{~m}^3\) to \(V_2=1 \mathrm{~m}^3\), during which the pressure-volume relationship is pV= constant .
Process 2-3: Constant-volume heating from state 2 to state 3, where \(p_3=5\) bar.
Process 3-1: Constant-pressure compression to the initial state.
Sketch the processes in series on p-V coordinates and evaluate the work for each process, in kJ.
