Aclosed tank contains oxygen at 20°c at a gage pressure of 150 kpa. determine the temperature if the oxygen is compressed isentropically to a gage pressure of 325 kpa. the atmospheric pressure is 101.3 kpa and the specific heat ratio of oxygen is 1.40. express your answer in °c to three significant figures.

Explanation:

As it is given that process is entropic which means that it is reversible adiabatic in nature.

Also, the given data is as follows.

      = = (20 + 273) K = 293 K

           Gage pressure = 150 kPa,      Atmospheric pressure = 101.3 kPa

Hence, pressure () will be (150 kPa + 101.3 kPa) = 251.3 kPa

and,  pressure () will be (325 kPa + 101.3 kPa) = 426.3 kPa

Also, specific heat ratio ()is given as 1.40.

Hence, relation between T and P is as follows.

        = constant

      =

              =

                          =

                          = 340.758 K

Hence, convert this temperature into degree celsius as follows.

                           =

Thus, we can conclude that the temperature is .

c. because step up transformer steps up the input voltage i.e increases the input voltage  

the number of turns are greater on the secondary side of step up transformer  

transformer does not handle dc current
