Air in a 10 ft3 cylinder is initially at a pressure of 10 atm and a temperature of 330 K. The cylinder is to be emptied by openi
ng a valve, and letting the pressure drop to that of the atmosphere. What will be the temperature and mass of the gas in the cylinder if this is done?In a manner which maintains the temperature of the gas at 330 K?

Answer:
a) 5.2 kPa
b) 49.3%
Explanation:
Given data:
Thermal efficiency ( л ) = 56.9% = 0.569
minimum pressure ( P1 ) = 100 kpa
<u>a) Determine the pressure at inlet to expansion process</u>
P2 = ?
r = 1.4
efficiency = 1 - [ 1 / (rp) ]
0.569 = 1 - [ 1 / (rp)^0.4/1.4
1 - 0.569 = 1 / (rp)^0.285
∴ (rp)^0.285 = 0.431
rp = 0.0522
note : rp = P2 / P1
therefore P2 = rp * P1 = 0.0522 * 100 kpa
= 5.2 kPa
b) Thermal efficiency
Л = 1 - [ 1 / ( 10.9 )^0.285 ]
= 0.493 = 49.3%
