.
i) Determine the change in length of the hot pipe.
This part of the task provides part of the evidence for the grading criterion P8.
ii) Determine the compressive force induced in the pipe if it is rigidly held and expansion is
prevented.
This part of the task provides the evidence for the grading criterion M4.

TASK 3
a) A single cylinder petrol engine has a volume compression ratio of 8:1, takes in a mixture of fuel and air at a temperature of 250°C and its pressure is 101 kPa. If the pressure at the end of the compression stroke is 1.5 MPa what will be its final temperature?
b) A compressed air storage cylinder has a volume of 0.5 m3 and contains air at an absolute pressure of 1.8 MPa and temperature 20°C. A quantity of the air is released during which the temperature of the remaining air falls to 15°C and the pressure to 1.5 MPa. Calculate the mass of the air released. The characteristic gas constant for air is 287 Jkg−1K−1.
