Does Q exist during Constant volume process in Stirling engine? It seems like Q=E=3/2nRT? but I am not quite sure.

If the process is constant volume dW = PdV =0 so from the first law of thermodynamics (dQ = dU + dW) dQ = dU. For an ideal gas, dU = nCvdTnotojosh said:Does Q exist during Constant volume process in Stirling engine? It seems like Q=E=3/2nRT? but I am not quite sure.
