POLYTROPICS (EXPANSION OR COMPRESSION OF A GAS) - QUESTIONS


Q1.1995
A single- acting single stage compressor compressed 0.56m³ of air per minute
from atmospheric condition of 1bar absolute and 20°C to a pressure 6bar
absolute. If the compression follows a law PV¹ ³=C and the effect of clearance
volume is neglected.
Calculate
a. Mass of air compressed per minutes
b. Volume of complex air delivered per minutes using PV diagram
c. Temperature of the after compression
Take R for air=287J/kgK

Q2.
The piston of a motor is delivered by compressed air. The air enters the cylinder
of the motor at a pressure of 2.8MN/m² and the temperature of 39°C.The air
expand to twice its original volume.
Calculate
The final temperature and pressure of the air, assuming r=1.4
