An air-standard cycle with constant specific heats is executed in a closed piston-cylinder system and is composed of the following three processes:

1.2 Isentropic compression with a compression ratior =6,T1, = 27°C, andP1, = 100 kPa

2-3 Constant pressure heat addition

3-1 Constant volume heat rejection

Assume air has constant properties withcv = 0.718 kJ/kg•K,cp= 1.005 kJ/kg•K,R= 0.287 kJ/kg•K, andk =1.4.

(a)Sketch theP-VandT-sdiagrams for this cycle.


(b)Determine the back work ratio for this cycle.
