THE FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS


Problem 1.1 (a) Wi-f = f PdV= P1 V2. Next, to calculate Tr we note that from (i) to (f) we have


dM _h
dt

"=--w+an,
where rh is the instantaneous flowrate into the cylinder, and M and U are the mass and energy
inventories of the system (the "system" is the cylinder volume). Integrating in time,


Mr-Mi= f Ihdt


(1)

and recognizing that U; = 0 and M; = 0, the first law reduces to

(1)

For the "ideal gas" working fluid we write

Ur=Mrc (Tr- To)

hi=c(Ti-To) +Pv;

hence, eq. ( 1') becomes

Mrc (T -To)= Mr[c (Ti- To) +Pvi]-P V2

Noting that V = Mrvr and dividing everything by Mr yields
c Tr+PI vr =c T +Pvy
or

c T;+ RT;=cT; +RT
in other words, Tr = Ti. The final ideal-gas mass admitted is




hence the goodness ratio
