A piston–cylinder device contains 2 kg of air initially at 90 kPa and 30°C. The air is now compressed slowly in a process during which PV k = constant until the volume is reduced by one-half. If the exponent k characterizing the compression process is the specific heat ratio of the air for the average operating temperatures (Table A-2b), the net heat transfer for the process is expected to be zero (adiabatic). Determine the work done and show that the heat transfer for this process is zero.
