- The Carnot Engine: (One mole of ideal Gas)
- Four processes:
- 1. Isothermal expansion $P_1, V_1, T_1 \rightarrow P_2, V_2, T_1$
- 2. Adiabatic Expansion $\quad P_2, V_2, T_1 \rightarrow P_3, V_3, T_2$
- 3. Isothermal compression $P_3, V_3, T_2 \rightarrow P_4, V_4, T_2$
- 4. Adiabatic Compression $\quad P_4, V_4, T_2 \rightarrow P_1, V_1, T_1$
- These processes can be executed in any order ensuring the initial and final states are the same. We shall calculate the work done And the heat absorbed. The change over a cycle in internal energy is zero.
