Assignment #5 ME 1

An air-standard dual cycle has a compression ratio of 9. At the beginning of compression, P 1= 100kPa, T1= 300K.
The heat addition per unit mass of air is 1400 kJ/kg, with two-thirds added at constant volume and one- third
added at constant pressure,
Determine:
(a) the temperatures at the end of each heat addition process, in K.
(b) the net work of the cycle per unit mass of air, in kJ/kg
(c) the thermal efficiency
(d) the mean effective pressure, in kPa

Assignment #5 ME 1

An air-standard dual cycle has a compression ratio of 9. At the beginning of compression, P1= 14.5 lb/in2, V1 =
0.5ft3, and T1 = 50°F. The pressure doubles during the constant-volume heat addition process. For a maximum
cycle temperature of 3000°R,
Determine
(a) the heat addition to the cycle, in BTU
(b) the net work of the cycle, in BTU
(c) the thermal efficiency
(d) the mean effective pressure, in lbf/in2
(e) To investigate the effects of varying maximum cycle temperature, plot each quantities calculated in parts
(a) through (d) for maximum cycle temperatures ranging from 3000 to 4000°R
