Hello,
I stumbled upon this question and I don't know how to answer it...
I know that Cv is defined as Cv = δQv/dT = (∂U/∂T)v but I thought it's value was determined by the nature of the gas only (3/2 for monoatomic and 5/2 for diatomic).
Can someone help me figure this out ?
I've been looking at tips and articles about how to create a successful CV for applying to graduate school in the US, but I'm getting confusing results about certain things. I plan on applying to Bioengineering/Materials Science and Engineering programs. My undergraduate degree is in Physics at...
1. The problem statement,
During the compression stroke of a certain gasoline engine, the pressure increases from 1 atm to 20 atm. If the process is adiabatic and the air–fuel mixture behaves as a diatomic ideal gas,
(a) by what factor does the volume change and
(b) by what factor does the...
Afternoon all.
I've have the following equations:
Cp - Cv = nR = Nkb
Cv = nRf / 2
Cp = nR(2+f) / 2
CvlnT = -nRlnV + const
where f is degrees of freedom
Do the Cp and Cv just stand for pressure and volume (where both are constant), so for example can the first equation only...
Hi
I have a small petrol generator.
How Large/Long/Heavy would a CV spring need to be, to run it for four hours.
Ideally the spring being narrow enough to be hidden in a house cavity wall (7or8")
More generally, how effective are CV springs as energy stores

Assume you have no knowledge about the microscopic information, all you know about the system of pure material is it's equation of state and number of particles. Why can't we get Cv=(∂U/∂T)V from here(if this is wrong how do we solve it?)? Why can we obtained some other quantities just from...

Hi all,
Preface:
So I have run several series of dynamic torque tests on different size 1/4 turn Butterfly valves. In the test, I am measuring upstream pressure, downstream pressure, valve angle (90° is open, 0 is closed), and torque on a transducer. I know the flow rate, which is in GPM...

"Invited talks" in a CV
I've seen a few CVs in my lifetime and from what I recall, people sometimes have a section on "invited talks". Now, at conferences, I've always thought there was a distinction between "invited talks" and "submitted talks", the former being the conference organizers going...

2 Q's: overseas worth it & "how to" CV for grad school
Hello,
I'm doing my last undergraduate year this year in my country of birth (Central-Europe) and I've made up my mind about doing my graduate (in theoretical physics) abroad: desire for a more vibrant, stimulating scientific environment...
we all know that Cv for a monoatomic ideal gas is 3/2 R and when we have constant volume Q=deltainternal energy =n Cv delta T.

Does "CV online- computer vision online" down?
hi, once , I think the cvonline ( computer vision online)

Two questions;

I'm struggeling to understand the concept of the Cv or Kv value, also known as the flow factor. In SI units this is defined as the flow through a valve (m3/h) at a pressure drop of 1 bar, or 100 kPa. Fair, and the formula for calculating it is easy enough. I enter my flow...
Hi!
I am working with ball valves and I need to calculate the cv for several sizes. I only knows the pressure drop expressed in terms of the "equivalent feet". Unfortunally, I do not have a lab to measure.
thanks a lot!

Can someone please remind me how to convert values of Heat capacaty at constant pressure to heat capacity at constant volume? I believe it has something to do with the volume expansivity (1/V)*(dV/dT) at constant pressure, but I can't find my therm textbook and I can't remember how to proceed.
Please give me some hints on resolving this problem. Thanks!
