5-9 A gas in a cylinder is compressed to a specified volume in a process during which the pressure changes linearly with
volume. The boundary work done during this process is to be determined by plotting the process on a P-
V
diagram and also
by integration.
Assumptions The process is quasi-equilibrium.
Analysis (a) The pressure of the gas changes linearly with volume, and thus the process curve on a P-
V
diagram will be a
straight line. The boundary work during this process is simply the area under the process curve, which is a trapezoidal.

5-12 Problem 5-11 is reconsidered. The process described in the problem is to be plotted on a P-
V
diagram, and the
effect of the polytropic exponent n on the boundary work as the polytropic exponent varies from 1.1 to 1.6 is to be plotted.
Analysis The problem is solved using EES, and the solution is given below.
Function BoundWork(P[1],V[1],P[2],V[2],n)
"This function returns the Boundary Work for the polytropic process. This function is required
V[2] = 0.2 [m^3]

"System: The gas enclosed in the piston-cylinder device."
"Process: Polytropic expansion or compression, P*V^n = C"
