Find the ending temperature using specific heat


Saturated liquid ammonia is compressed adiabatically in a piston/cylinder. The ammonia starts at 40F, and the compression work is 3.0 Btu/lbm.

a. Draw the equipment and show the changes from the starting state to the ending state. Label as much information as you can.

b. Draw the starting and ending states and process on P-v, T-v, P-T, and P-u diagrams.

c. Complete the design documentation questions on Harvey.

d. Find the ending temperature.

e. Find the ending temperature using specific heat (heat capacity).

f. Compare the results for parts d and e and discuss.
