8-129 A constant-volume tank contains 20 kg of nitrogen at 1000 K, and a constant-pressure device contains 10 kg of argon at 300 K. A heat engine placed between the tank and device extracts 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 nitrogen and argon. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature. | |
