One pound of air in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes a thermodynamic cycle consisting of three processes;
Process 1 > 2: Constant specific volume heating
Process 2 > 3: Constant temperature expansion
Process 3 > 1 : Constant pressure compression
At state (1), the temperature is 300 K and 1 bar. At state (2), the pressure is 2 bars. Throughout the cycle, air behaves as an ideal gas with R = 8.314 kJ/(kmol * K). M=29 kg/kmol.
(1) Sketch the cycle on a p-v diagram.
(2) Determine the temperature at state
(3) Determine the specific volume at state
(4) Determine the change in internal energy for process 2 > 3

What precautions should you take to prevent injuries when dealing with heavy loads?

An electrical motor raises a 50kg load at a construct velencity .calculate the power of the motor, if it takes 40sec to raise the load through a height of 24m(take g =9.8n/g)

Air is to be cooled in the evaporator section of a refrigerator by passing it over a bank of 0.8-cm-outer-diameter and 0.4-m-long tubes inside which the refrigerant is evaporating at -20°c. air approaches the tube bank in the normal direction at 0°c and 1 atm with a mean velocity of 4 m/s. the tubes are arranged in-line with longitudinal and transverse pitches of sl- st 1.5 cm. there are 30 rows in the flow direction with 15 tubes in each row. determine (a) the refrigeration capacity of this system and (b) pressure drop across the tube bank. evaluate the air properties at an assumed mean temperature of -5°c and 1 atm. is this a good assumption?
