Question: 1- Air undergoes a polytropic compression in a piston-cylinder assembly from p, = 1 bar, T = 22 C to p; = 5.5 bars.
1- Air undergoes a polytropic compression in a piston-cylinder assembly from p, = 1 bar, T = 22 C to p; = 5.5 bars. Employing the ideal gas model, determine the work and heat transfer per unit mass, in kJ/kg, if n= 1.3.
