Three kilograms of air within a piston-cylinder assembly executes a Carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temperatures of 800K and 350K, respectively. The heat transfer to the air during the isothermal expansion is 80kJ. At the end of the isothermal expansion, the volume is 0.5 m3. The air is modeled as an ideal gas.
Determine:
(a) the thermal efficiency.
(b) the pressure and the volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion, in kPa and m^3 respectively.
(c) the work and heat transfer for each of the four processes in kJ.
(d) sketch the cycle on a P-V coordinates.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
