Air occupies a 0.5-m' tank. It starts at a pressure of 5 bar and a temperature of 300 K. Energy flows into the tank via heat transfer until the temperature reaches 400 K. This happens at constant pressure, which is possible because there is a pressure-relief valve that lets air leave the tank to keep the pressure constant. Neglect kinetic and potential energy effects, and use the ideal gas model with constant specific heats evaluated at 350 K. Determine the mass of air that escapes, in kg. Determine the amount of energy transfer by heat, in kJ. a. b. Hint: use Ucv = mu; he= u + RT, and co+ R Cp.

A cycle starts with an adiabatic compression of the air from state a with a volume V3 to state b with volume V1. At the end of the compression, heat is added (absorbed), resulting in an isobaric expansion to state c with volume V2 followed by an adiabatic expansion back to volume V3 at state d. Finally, heat is expelled, corresponding to an isochoric reduction completing the cycle and bringing air back to state a. Find the ratio between the initial and final temperatures for (1) the adiabatic compression, and (2) the adiabatic expansion in terms of the expansion ratio re = V3 /V2 and the compression ratio rc = V3 /V1..
