Thermodynamics Isochoric process .

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on an isochoric process involving a gas with specific initial conditions. The original poster calculates the final temperature, heat transferred, change in internal energy, work done, and change in enthalpy, assuming constant volume. Key calculations include determining the final temperature as 806 K and asserting that no heat is transferred due to zero work done. However, a participant points out a critical error regarding the initial temperature, which is incorrectly stated as 130 C instead of 1300 C, and challenges the notion that no work is done by the heating source. The conversation highlights the importance of accurate temperature readings in thermodynamic calculations.

Hi

can please check my answer for this question :

A certain Gas of volume 0.4 m3, pressure of 4.5 bar
and temperature of 1300 C is heated to in a cylinder to 9 bar when the volume remains
constant. Calculate

¨ (i) Temperature at the
end of the process,

¨ (ii) the heat transferred

¨(iii) change in internal energy

¨ (iv) work done

¨(v) change in enthalpy.

¨Assume Cp = 1.005 kJ/kg.K and Cv=
0.71005 kJ/kg.K


my answer

p1v1=mRT

4.5 X 100 X 0.4 = m X 0.28 X 403

m= 1595 kg


now
i) p2v2 = mRT
9 X 100 X 0.4 = 1.1595 X 0.28 X T
T = 806 K

ii ) the heat transferred
no heat transferred because the work = 0

(iii) change in internal energy

Cv(T2 - T1 )
0.71005(806 - 40)
= 54.86

(iv) work done = 0

(v) change in enthalpy.
Cp (T2 - T1 )
1.005(806 - 40)
=769.83

I'll stop you here: what are you doing?
 
According to you, it is impossible for a stove to heat up a tea kettle because no work is done by the stove.

Also the OP says the initial temp. is 1300 C, rather than 130 C.
