In a cylinder/piston arrangement, air is compressed in a reversible polytropic process to a final state of 800 kPa, 500 K. Initially air is at 110 kPa and 25oC. During the compression process heat transfer takes place with the ambient maintained at 25oC.

An isentropic compressor that takes in air from the atmosphere at 100 kPa and 300 K compresses it to 1 MPa. The compressor feeds into a rigid tank that is initially filled with 5 kg of air at a pressure of 500 kPa and a temperature of 500 K. Once the mass in the tank reaches 8 kg, the compressor will stop to prevent the tank from rupturing, which will occur if the pressure exceeds 1000 kPa. a) Determine the...
