An energy using 10 moles of diatomic ideal gas works on the reversible cycle having the following process:
- Adiabatic compression form 1 bar pressure and 300 K temperature to pressure of 9 times the initial value,
- Constant pressure transformation upto temperature of 100 K,
- Adiabatic expansion upto 3 bars,
- Constant pressure transformation such that temperature of 1000 K is reached,
- Adiabatic expansion,
- Constant pressure transformation upto the original state.
For this engine,
- Represent the cycle on a p-v diagram.
- Calculate pressure, temperature and volume at salient points.
- Calculate the efficiency of the engine summarising results in a tabular form.
- Compare the efficiency of the engine operating on Carnot cycle between the same extreme temperatures. Give comments.
