Estimate the change in entropy when one mole of nitrogen is compressed by a piston in a cylinder from 300 K and 23 liters/mol to 400 K and 460 liters/mol.
Estimate the change in entropy when one mole of nitrogen is compressed by a piston in a cylinder from 300 K and 23 liters/mol to 400 K and 460 liters/mol. Steam at 400C and 10 bar is left in an insulated 10 m3 cylinder. The cylinder has a small leak, however. Compute the conditions of the…

Write the most appropriate entropy balance(s) for this process.
Operating a wind tunnel for aircraft experiments begins with adiabatically and reversibly compressing atmospheric air (300 K) into long cylinders comprising a total volume of 20 m3 at 200 bars. The cylinders are initially at 1 bar. Estimate the minimal amount of work required (MJ) to perform the compression step. (a) Write the most appropriate energy…

What is the final temperature of the air in the upper chamber?
An insulated cylinder is fitted with a freely floating piston, and contains 0.5 kg of steam at 9 bar and 90% quality. The space above the piston, initially 0.05m3, contains air at 300 K to maintain the pressure on the steam. Additional air is forced into the upper chamber, forcing the piston down and increasing…

Write the most appropriate entropy balance(s) for this process. Clearly identify the system(s) pertaining to your entropy balance(s).
Many action movies show gas cylinders that have their caps knocked off. The tanks go flying around wreaking havoc (only on the bad guys, of course). How much velocity could a tank like that really generate? For an upper bound, consider a tank traveling horizontally on a frictionless surface with an isentropic nozzle taking the…

Use the polynomial expression in the back of the book to estimate Cvig/R at 200 K as a reference.
CO2 is given a lot of credit for global warming because it has vibrational frequencies in the infrared (IR) region that can absorb radiation reflected from the Earth and degrade it into thermal energy. The vibration at /k = 290K (903cm–1) is particularly important. (a) Plot Cvig/R versus T for CO2 in the…

Consider a state change for an ideal gas in a piston/cylinder. Find T2 by an adiabatic reversible path.
We have considered heat and work to be path-dependent. However, if all heat transfer with surroundings is performed using a reversible heat transfer device (some type of reversible Carnot-type device), work can be performed by the heat transfer device during heat transfer to the surroundings. The net heat transferred to the surroundings and the net…

Fat Soluble Vitamins
How can deficiency of the fat soluble vitamins affect athletic performance? You can provide research on either strength or endurance related performance. Make sure to discuss how deficiency will show up. For example, what are some of the symptoms an athlete may experience due to a deficiency? Use at least…

Desertification Paper
What is desertification?Choose a specific location currently affected by desertification to research (Not a location that has been a desert for a long time. Choose a location currently affected by desertification. Example, if you are looking at the Sahara, the location associated with it currently undergoing desertification would be the outlying Sahel.)Where is it locatedWhat…
