I want to know if a specific amount of gas has been compressed isothermaly an then released to expand freely, how much of the energy that has been spent on compressing the gas can be recovered. As for example, 1 gm-mole of Nitrogen has been compressed to 1/4th of its initial volume from at 1 bara pressure. Now, if that amount has been released suddenly and used to rotate a turbine, then how much energy can be produced?
For simplicity, let's consider the whole process to be something totally ideal from start to end.
