A gas undergoes the cyclic process shown in the PV diagram at right. In the process abc, the system absorbs 4500 J of heat. The internal energy of the gas at a is U₁= 600 J. (b) (c) How much work is done on or by the gas from a to b? How much work is done on or by the gas when it goes from b to c ? Note that the vertical scale is measured in kilo-Pa-100 kPa -105 Pa [1 Liter = 10³ m³] 100 The net heat absorbed by the gas during the complete cycle is 1000 J. (d) Determine the heat entering or leaving in the process c to a 50 a 20 Use the First Law of Thermodynamics to determine the internal energy of the gas at c, Uc 60 C Liters
In the pV diagram shown in the figure (Figure 1), 80.0 J of work was done by 0.0610 mole of ideal gas during an adiabatic process. a) How much heat entered or left this gas from a to b? Express your answer in joules. b) By how many joules did the internal energy of the gas change? Express your answer in joules. c) What is the temperature of the gas at b? Express your answer in kelvins.
The porous catalyst pellet shown in Figure 1 has an overall radius R and a thermal conductivity k (which may be assumed constant). Because of the chemical reaction occurring within the porous pellet, heat is generated at a constant rate of Se cal/em s. Heat is lost at the outer surface of the pellet to a gas stream at a constant temperature T, by convective heat transfer coefficient h. Gas bemperature T, Figure I. Sphere with internal heat generation Answer the following questions (a) Make a list of assumptions that apply to the above situation. (b) Set up the differential equation by making a shell energy balance. Show the units for all variables that are used. (c) Specify the proper boundary conditions. (d) Integrate the differential equation with the above boundary conditions to obtain an expression for the temperature profile, and make a sketch of the function profile T(r) (e) What is the limiting form of T(r) when h co? (f) What is the maximum temperature in the system? (g)…
