P1=101K,T1=300K,P2=1380Kpa,γ=1.3P_1=101K ,T_1=300K,P_2=1380Kpa,\gamma=1.3

T=T2T1∆T=T_2-T_1

T2T1=(P2P1)n1n\frac{T_2}{T_1}=(\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{\frac{n-1}{n}}



T2=300×(1380101)1.311.3=548.50KW=mRTn1T_2=300\times(\frac{1380}{101})^{\frac{1.3-1}{1.3}}=548.50K\\W=\frac{mR∆T}{n-1}

W=1×0.257×(548.50300)3.11=237.73KJsecW=\frac{1\times0.257\times(548.50-300)}{3.1-1}=237.73\frac{KJ}{sec}

W=237.73KWW={237.73KW}
