WL 102

The experiment setup WL 102 demonstrates the relationships between pressure, temperature, and volume using compressed air. Transparent vessels allow observation of state changes as the air volume is increased or decreased isothermically using a compressor. Alternatively, the temperature of the confined air can be increased at constant volume. Boyle's law of inverse pressure-volume relationship at constant temperature is verified by compressing a fixed amount of air from 3 L to 1 L and measuring the associated pressure change.

:Introduction

The experiment setup WL 102 is used to demonstrate the relationship between pressure
.and temperature volume

Air which can be compressed or expanded is used as the experimental gas for the isothermic
.expansion and compression

.The experiment must be performed slowly to reduce errors in the results

The unit is suitable for both demonstrations performed


by the lecturer, and also for student experiments
.as part of laboratory practical experiments
:Theory

.Transparent vessels enable the change of state to be observed

.Air is used as the test gas

In vessel 1, positioned on the left, the enclosed air volume is reduced or

increased using a compressor and hydraulic oil. This results in an

isothermic change of state. The compressor can also operate as a

vacuum pump. If the changes occur slowly, the change of state takes

.place at an almost constant temperature

In vessel 2, positioned on the right, the temperature of the test gas is

increased by a controlled electric heater and the resulting pressure rise is

.measured. The volume of the enclosed gas remains constant

,Temperatures, pressures and volumes are measured electronically

.digitally displayed and transferred to a PC for processing

In this experiment, to check Boyle’s law a fixed quantity of gas of approx. 3 litre volume is
com- pressed to approx. 1 litre at constant temperature and the associated pressure change
.measured

• Turn on the unit at the main switch (9).


• Open the air discharge valve (10) on the lid of the cylinder.
• Open the needle valve (12) and set the required filling speed.
• Move the selector switch (4) to position B.
• Turn on the compressor using the switch until the oil level reaches the 3L mark
on the vessel scale (11).
• Turn off the compressor.
• Close the air discharge valve on the lid of the cylinder!
• Start the data acquisition program and make the corresponding settings.
• Move the selector switch to position A.
• Turn on the compressor using the switch until the oil level reaches the mark on
the vessel scale (1L).
• Open the graph of measured values and inter- pret.
• Leave the pressure cylinder unchanged and continue immediately with the
expansion experiment.

Isohoric process:
also called a constant-volume process, or an isometric process, is a thermodynamic
process during which the volume of the closed system undergoing such a process
remains constant. An isochoric process is exemplified by the heating or the cooling
of the contents of a sealed, inelastic container: The thermodynamic process is the
addition or removal of heat.

:Gay_lussacs law
is a gas law which states that the pressure exerted by a gas (of a given mass and kept  
at a constant volume) varies directly with the absolute temperature of the gas. In other
words, the pressure exerted by a gas is proportional to the temperature of the gas when
.the mass is fixed and the volume is constant

V = constant

P<t

P=ct

C= any constant

P/ T=C

P1/ T1= P2/ T2

Q = W+U

And V2=V1

W=0 (area under curve =0)

Q = U = m Cv (T2 - T1)

:Isothermal process
Its the temperature of the system remains constant: ΔT = 0. This typically occurs when a
.system is in contact with an outside thermal reservoir

:Boyles law

is a gas law which states that the pressure exerted by a gas (of a given mass, kept at a
constant temperature) is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by it. In other
words, the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional to each other as long as
.the temperature and the quantity of gas are kept constant

T = constant

V  1/P

V=C/P , C= any constant

PV=C

P1V1=P2V2

W=Q=mRT1(lnv2/v1)

W=P1V1(lnP1/P2)

P1V1=P2V2

PV=mRT

W=mRT1(lnP1/P2)
