Air is compressed from an initial condition of 1 bar and 25 °Cto a final state of 5 bar and 25 °C by three differentmechanically reversible processes in a closed system(a) Heating at constant volume followed by cooling atconstant pressure.(b) Isothermal compression.(c) Adiabatic compression followed by cooling atconstant volume.At these conditions, air may be considered an ideal gas withthe constant heat capacities, CV = (5/2)R and CP = (7/2)R.Calculate the work required, heat transferred and thechanges in internal energy and enthalpy of the air for eachprocess.
