Question: 3 Closed System with Weight / Internal Energy U Gas at a pressure of p 1 = 0 . 4 MPa and a temperature of

3 Closed System with Weight / Internal Energy U
Gas at a pressure of p1=0.4MPa and a temperature of t1=376.85C is enclosed in a cylinder with a frictionless moving piston of an area A=0.6m2 at an initial height of 2*z. On top of the piston, additional mass m is placed. By heat transfer Q12 to the environment, the enclosed gas is cooled until the piston rests on the protrusions at a height z=1m within the cylinder. Subsequently, the gas is cooled by heat transfer Q23 until the temperature within the cylinder is in thermal equilibrium with the environment )=3.9bar,ta=(21.85C. The gas can be modelled as ideal.

a) Sketch the process of the system. Name the states and mark the transferred heat and work for each process step.
b) Draw the process in a p,v-diagram.
c) Determine the mass m on the piston.
d) Calculate the temperature t2 in state 2 and the pressure p3 in state 3.
e) Determine the transferred heat in every process step
