An ideal gas Carnot cycle with air in a piston cylinder has a high temperature of 1000 K and a heat rejection at 400 K. During the heat addition the volume triples. Find the two specific heat transfers (q) in the cycle and the overall cycle efficiency

W / n = - 9133 J / mol, W / n = 3653 J / mol , e = 0.600

Explanation:

The Carnot cycle is described by

In this case they indicate that the final volume is

         V = 3V₀

In the part of the heat absorption cycle from the source is an isothermal expansion

         W = n RT ln (V₀ / V)

         W / n = 8.314 1000 ln (1/3)

          W / n = - 9133 J / mol

During the part of the isothermal compression in contact with the cold focus, as in a machine the relation of volumes is maintained in this part is compressed three times

            W / n = 8.314 400 (3)

           W / n = 3653 J / mol

The efficiency of the cycle is

            e = 1- 400/1000

            e = 0.600
