Answer to Question #262531 in Mechanical Engineering for Angel

Question

Explain the difference between an isothermal and an adiabatic expansion of a gas .

20020 m ^ 3 the gas in question 7 at a pressure of 1 bar is compressed to 70020 m ^ 3 adiabatic change . Calculate the:

a) ratio of the specific heat capacities y

b) final pressure

Answer 1

Solution;

Isothermal process is a thermodynamic process in which there is no chance in temperature throughout the process while an adiabatic process is a thermodynamic process in which there is no heat transfer between the system and the sorrounding.

Given;

$V_1=20020m^2$

$P_1=1 bar$

$V_2=70020m^3$
