Question: in a Carnot cycle, air is used with constant specific heats. The maximum pressure is 1 8 bar and the maximum temperature is 4 1

in a Carnot cycle, air is used with constant specific heats. The maximum pressure is 18 bar and the maximum temperature is 410C. The compression ratio during isentropic compression is 6, and during isothermal expansion, it is 1.5. The following calculations are requested:
a) Temperature at the beginning of the isothermal compression
b) Heat input
c) Pressure at the end of the isothermal expansion
d) Pressure at the beginning of the isothermal compression
e) Exergy destroyed during this cycle
