    The document discusses the Carnot cycle, which consists of four thermodynamic processes - two isothermal processes where temperature remains constant and two adiabatic processes where there is no heat transfer. Specifically, it describes the Carnot cycle as consisting of: 1) an isothermal expansion where volume increases with no temperature change, 2) an adiabatic expansion where volume increases and pressure decreases with no heat transfer, 3) an isothermal compression where volume decreases and pressure increases at a constant temperature, and 4) an adiabatic compression where volume decreases and pressure increases without heat transfer. The document was written by a student for a thermodynamics class discussing thermodynamic cycles, examples, and applications.

    Specific Tasks

    1. Choose one of the following thermodynamic cycles and discuss using a diagram. Cite your
    references.
    a. Carnot Cycle

    Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot (1796-1832), a French military engineer, published


    Reflections on the Motive Power of Fire in 1824. The book proposed a generalized theory of heat
    engines, as well as an idealized model of a thermodynamic system for a heat engine that is now
    known as the Carnot cycle. The Carnot cycle consists of four processes. For the first process,
    process 1-2 this process is called isothermal expansion in thermodynamics this means there is no
    change in temperature, the next process is 2-3 which is called an adiabatic expansion, adiabatic
    in thermodynamics means that there is no heat transfer between surroundings and your system,
    on this process the volume increases and the pressure decreases. The next process 3-4 is called is
    the isothermal compression so by compression it means volume is decreased and as a result
    pressure increases. And finally the last process the last process is called the adiabatic
    compressions since it it's an adiabatic all change in temperature is contained within a system and
    our entropy is zero also since this is compression it means our volume decreases while our
    pressure increases.

    2. Give a specific practical application of the thermodynamic cycle that you have discussed in task number 1.
    Explain based on your understanding of the concept. You may use a PowerPoint presentation or an actual
    demonstration. Film yourself while doing this task number 2.
