8-130 A constant-volume tank has a temperature of 800 K and a constant-pressure device has a temperature of 290 K. Both the tank and device are filled with 20 kg of air. A heat engine placed between the tank and device receives heat from the high-temperature tank, produces work, and rejects heat to the low-temperature device. Determine the maximum work that can be produced by the heat engine and the final temperatures of the tank and device. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature. | |
