T06.3(c) as an excercise

With my previous post, I hope you can verify, correct and possibly simplify your results for problem T06(b). Then it will not be so difficult to solve part (c) also. For the whole cycle, we have




where Q_abs is the amount of heat absorbed from the environment, and Q_del is the amount of heat delivered to the environment. Note the minus-sign and make sure you understand the reason for it to appear in this expression.

So as an excercise for the next class, use these formulas to calculate the work performed during the cycle and the efficiency of the cycle.

    Excuse me, professor, I got troubles to understand lambda_c: is it the same of lambda but defined on the point c? I mean, is the same definition of lambda but changing Delta V and Delta p according to the direction of the curve?

Work for an ideal gas in a 3D container (corrected)

Imagen
Using the differential al work calculated on exercise 6.2: 1. How can we use the result to obtain DW for an ideal gas in a 3D container? What is the interpretation of the parameter "a" in that case. Solution.  The differential of work calculated on exercise 6.2 is Here, d represents the dimension of the box. So The parameter a is the lenght, according to equation (67). Because we are working on  3 dimensions, a³=V . This might come from the definition of entropy*.      2. What do we get for DW for d=3 and n --> infinity? And how is this result related to the expected form DW = N k_B T dV/V?    Solution.  On the last expression we get DW for three dimensional case. Now, applying the limit on infinity, we expect that the differential of work would become on well potential one. So,
