Respuesta :
Part A) This engine works per cycle is 254.9 J.
Part B) The thermal efficiency is 23.42%
What is the thermal efficiency?
The thermal efficiency of any heat engine is represented in percentage of heat energy converted into work.
For isothermal expansion, work done is
W₁ =nRT₁ x ln(V₂/V₁)
W₁ = 0.1 x 8.314 x 800 x ln(5000/3000)
W₁ = 339.8 J =Q₁
For isochoric cooling ,
W₂ =0
Q₂ =nCvdT = 0.1 x 3R/2 x (T₂-T₁)
Q₂ = -748.3 J
For isothermal compression,
W₃ =nRT₂ ln (V₄/V₃)
W₃ = 0.1 x 8.314 x 200 x ln(3000/5000)
W₃ = -84.9J
For isochoric heating
W₄ =0
Q₄ =nCvdT = 0.1 x 3R/2 x (800-200)
Q₄ = -748.3 J
Total work done in all the process W = W₁ +W₂ +W₃ +W₄
W =254.9 J
Thus, the work done is 254.9 J
Thermal efficiency = Work done/Heat taken
η = W/ Q₁ +Q₄
η = [254.9 / 339.8 +748.3 ] x 100 %
η = 0.2342 x 100 %
η = 23.42%
Thus, the thermal efficiency is 23.42%
