Air is compressed adiabatically in a piston-cylinder assembly from 1 bar, 300 K to 10 bar, 600 K. The air can be modeled as an i

deal gas and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the amount of entropy produced, in kJ/K per kg of air, for the compression. What is the minimum theoretical work input, in kJ per kg of air, for an adiabatic compression from the given initial state to a final pressure of 10 bar?

Answer:

1) the entropy generated is Δs= 0.0363 kJ/kg K

2) the minimum theoretical work is w piston = 201.219 kJ/kg

Explanation:

1) From the second law of thermodynamics applied to an ideal gas

ΔS = Cp* ln ( T₂/T₁) - R ln (P₂/P₁)

and also

k= Cp/Cv , Cp-Cv=R → Cp*( 1-1/k) = R → Cp= R/(1-1/k)= k*R/(k-1)

ΔS =  k*R/(k-1)* ln ( T₂/T₁) - R ln (P₂/P₁)

where R= ideal gas constant , k= adiabatic coefficient of air = 1.4

replacing values (k=1.4)

ΔS =  k*R/(k-1)* ln ( T₂/T₁) - R ln (P₂/P₁)

ΔS = 1.4/(1.4-1) *8.314 J/mol K * ln( 600K/300K) - 8.314 J/mol K *  ln (10 bar/ 1bar)

ΔS = 1.026 J/ mol K

per mass

Δs = ΔS / M

where M= molecular weight of air

Δs = 1.026 J/ mol K / 28.84 gr/mol = 0.0363 J/gr K = 0.0363 kJ/kg K

2) The minimum theoretical work input is carried out under a reversible process. from the second law of thermodynamics

ΔS =∫dQ/T =0 since Q=0→dQ=0

then

0 = k*R/(k-1)* ln ( T₂/T₁) - R ln (P₂/P₁)

T₂/T₁ = (P₂/P₁)^[(k-1)/k]

T₂ = T₁ * (P₂/P₁)^[(k-1)/k]

replacing values

T₂ = 300K * ( 10 bar/1 bar)^[0.4/1.4] = 579.2 K

then from the first law of thermodynamics

ΔU= Q - Wgas = Q + Wpiston ,

where ΔU= variation of internal energy , Wgas = work done by the gas to the piston , Wpiston  = work done by the piston to the gas

since Q=0

Wpiston = ΔU

for an ideal gas

ΔU= n*Cv*(T final - T initial)

and also

k= Cp/Cv , Cp-Cv=R → Cv*( k-1) = R → Cv= R/(k-1)

then

ΔU= n*R/(k-1)*(T₂  - T₁)

W piston = ΔU = n*R/(k-1)*(T₂  - T₁)

the work per kilogram of air will be

w piston = W piston / m = n/m*R/(k-1)*(T₂  - T₁)  = (1/M*) R/(k-1)*(T₂  - T₁)  ,

replacing values

w piston = (1/M*) R/(k-1)*(T₂  - T₁)  = 1/ (28.84 gr/mol)* 8.314 J/mol K /0.4 * ( 579.2 K - 300 K) = 201.219 J/gr = 201.219 kJ/kg

Even though humans share 100% of the same genes, the instructions contained within the genes are not entirely identical. Each person is unique. People have different hair colors, facial structures, and other traits. These differences between individuals result from very small differences in their DNA sequences. DNA also contains many so-called "housekeeping genes" that control important metabolic processes. As you will see, some of the differences in these genes can cause illness.

Although the DNA of any two people on Earth is, in fact, 99.9% identical, even a tiny difference can have a big effect if this difference is located in a critical gene.

What occurs when light bends while passing from one medium to another?
Levart [38]

Answer:So the answer is B

Explanation: When the light rays either bend or change their direction while passing from one medium to another it is called refraction of light. The refraction of light takes place when light travels from air into glass, from glass into air, from air into water or from water into air.

Luden [163]

Answer:

P = 22 watts

Explanation:

Given that,

The output power of the generator = 2 a

The output potential difference = 11 V

We need to find the output power of the generator. The formula for the output power is given by :

P=V\times I\\\\P=11\times 2\\\\P=22\ W

So, the output power of the generator is equal to 22 Watts.
