Problem 172HP
A helium gas is heated at constant volume from 100 kPa, 300 K to 500 K. A following process expands the gas at constant pressure to three times the initial volume. What is the specific work and the specific heat transfer in the combined process?
ANSWER:
Solution 172 HP:
Step 1 of 3:-
Here we have to calculate the specific work and the specific heat transfer.
Initial pressure was,
.
The initial temperature was,
.
The final temperature was,
.
The ideal gas equation at constant volume will lead to,
.
The work done in the process is,
