Question:

An inventor proposes a reversible nonflow cycle using air. The cycle consists of the following three processes:

1–2: Constant-volume compression from 101 kPa and 15° C to 700 kPa.
2–3: Constant-pressure heat addition during which the volume is tripled.
3–1: A process that appears as a straight line on a P - V diagram.

Draw PV and T–S diagrams for the cycle. Compute the net work of the cycle in kJ/kg and Btu/lbm.
