    How Does Heat Addition Affect Gas Behavior in a Dual-Chamber Cylinder?

    Hello Studiot,thank you for your reply.The n value is an exercise data,is given by the teacher,I suppose it`s invented. Thank you to correct diathermanous word. Best regards

    How Does Heat Addition Affect Gas Behavior in a Dual-Chamber Cylinder?

    Homework Statement -We have a cylinder with two chambers separated by an adiabatic piston. The external walls are adiabatics but left wall is diatermana. Friction produced by the piston moving is absorbed by the right system. Inicially gas conditions are the same for both ( in the left...

    Graduate Thermodynamic Exercise: Adiabatic Cylinder with Double Chamber and Piston

    V_T= \frac{N_A . R. T_f}{P_f}+ \frac{N_B .R .T_f}{P_f} 2388,14 = 93,75 x 0,082 x 406,88/P_f + 124,91 x 0,082 x 406,88/P_f Then P_f= 3,05 Bar and Final volume in B is V_B = 124,91 x 8,3143 x 406,88/305 = 1385,44 litres And Final volume in A is V_A =2388,14-1385,44 = 1002,7 litres...

    To Calculate final pressure : V_A+V_B= V_T I calculate V_T=477,9+1910,24=2388,14 Litres Like the total volume is constant

    Graduate Thermodynamic Exercise: Adiabatic Cylinder with Double Chamber and Piston

    Have a rigid and thermally insulated tank having a diatermano piston that divides in 2 separate parts. Part A contains oxygen and inside there is a resistance connected to 220 v which supplies a electric current of 3 amperes. The other part B contains helium. Initially the system is in thermal...

    Graduate Thermodynamic Exercise: Adiabatic Cylinder with Double Chamber and Piston

    Hello Andrew,thank you for your reply.It`s right that before electricity is supplied to the resistance the system is in static equilibrium: \Delta Q = \Delta U = W = 0 I wanted to say \Delta U_{total} = -W_{elec} . If you don´t mind I`m going to write all exercise and like I solve it.

    Hello,thank you for your reply. Yes the question is that in the total balance before turn on the resistance \Delta U = -W_{elec} because the system is adiabatic and Q=0. But to calculate Q in left chamber after turn on the resistance would be Q=N C_v (T_f-T_i)+W_{expansion}+W_{elec} Thank you

    First, I want to say thank you for your quick reply, I am very grateful. I am very confused because I understand Q=W_{elec} but I am going to upload a book where W_{out}=W_{exp}+W_{elec} and the first law is \Delta U=Q-W_{out} you can see example 4.16. Than you
