Chapter 5. Work and Haat
Alarge manufacturer of air compressors is developing an air-cooled piston model and a water-
cooled piston model both having the same diameter of five inches, The prototype was harnessed
toa pressure gauge and the following readings taken during the compression stroke. For each
model, find the polytropic index n of this process and calculate the nonflow work done. Which of the
prototype designs will be more efficient?
