T 1 = 7 4 0 C , P 1 = 2 0 0 kPa V 1 = 3 0 L R s = 2

T1=740C,P1=200kPa
V1=30L
Rs=287fkg*K
T1=740C+273,15=1013,15K
P1*V1=m*Rs*T1,m=P1*V1Rs*T1=200kPa*30(L)287Vkg*K*1013,15(K)=0,02063(kg)
as Rs is in K we are going to change Temperature fromic to K
Evaluate the effects of thermodynamic process parameters on thermodynamic systems, while explaining the need for and correctly converting between different temperature scales and calculating accurately unknown values for a range of given polytropic processes
You then need to:
Complete the following calculations, using the data provided for Gases B and C, where Parts 1,2,3 and 4 relate to different polytropic processes:
Part 1- A cylinder of air occupies a volume of 30 litres. The temperature of the gas is T1 and the pressure is P1(see data table).
Assume the gas constant of air is 287Jkg-1K-1. Calculate the mass of the air.
Part 2- A piston contains air at temperature T1 and pressure P1(see data table). The air is heated to 1200K while being kept at a constant volume of 5 litres.
Assume the gas constant for air is 287Jkg-1K-1.
Calculate the pressure and the mass of the air following heating.
Part 3- A cylinder contains a gas at temperature 200C(T1), volume 5 litres (V1) and a pressure of 2.2 MPa (P1). The polytropic process index value (n) of the gas in its initial state is 1.1. Assume the gas constant for the gas is 188Jkg-1K-1.
Calculate the initial mass of the gas.
The gas is then cooled to a temperature of T2. At this temperature the pressure is P2. Find the polytropic process index value (n) for the gas after it has been cooled.
