What do areas under process curve on p-v represent


Air is compressed in a steady-flow compressor via a polytropic process from 15 psia and 60 degrees F (state 1). To 75 psia and 294 degrees F (state 2).

(A) calculate the specific work (Btu/lbm) for the compressor.

(B) determine the specific heat transfer (Btu/lbm) for the compressor.

(C) Show the compression process on P-v and T-s diagrams

(D) What do the areas under the process curve on the P-v and T-s diagrams represent?
