How does the microstructure in predicting the mechanical properties of an alloy system? what are the different ways to tune the microstructure and hence the properties in such systems? explain with examples.

Heat is added to a piston-cylinder device filled with 2 kg of air to raise its temperature 400 c from an initial temperature of t1 27 cand pressure of pi 1 mpa. the process is isobaric process. find a)-the final pressure p2 b)-the heat transfer to the air.

Steel is coated with a thin layer of ceramic to protect against corrosion. what do you expect to happen to the coating when the temperature of the steel is increased significantly? explain.

Acompressor receives the shaft work to decrease the pressure of the fluid. a)- true b)- false
