Work Done in Adiabatic Process given Adiabatic Index Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Work = (Mass of Gas*[R]*(Initial Temperature-Final Temperature))/(Heat Capacity Ratio-1)
W = (m_gas*[R]*(T_i-T_f))/(γ-1)
This formula uses 1 Constants, 5 Variables

Constants Used

[R] - Universal gas constant Value Taken As 8.31446261815324

Variables Used

Work - (Measured in Joule) - Work is done when a force that is applied to an object moves that object.
Mass of Gas - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of Gas is the mass on or by which the work is done.
Initial Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Initial Temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness of a system at its initial state.
Final Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - Final Temperature is the measure of hotness or coldness of a system at its final state.
Heat Capacity Ratio - The Heat Capacity Ratio also known as the adiabatic index is the ratio of specific heats i.e. the ratio of the heat capacity at constant pressure to heat capacity at constant volume.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Mass of Gas: 2 Kilogram --> 2 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Initial Temperature: 305 Kelvin --> 305 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Final Temperature: 345 Kelvin --> 345 Kelvin No Conversion Required
Heat Capacity Ratio: 1.4 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

W = (m_gas*[R]*(T_i-T_f))/(γ-1) --> (2*[R]*(305-345))/(1.4-1)

Evaluating ... ...

W = -1662.89252363065

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

-1662.89252363065 Joule --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

-1662.89252363065 ≈ -1662.892524 Joule <-- Work

What is an Adiabatic Process?

An adiabatic process is one in which no heat is gained or lost by the system. When an ideal gas is compressed adiabatically (Q=0), work is done on it and its temperature increases; in an adiabatic expansion, the gas does work and its temperature drops.

How to Calculate Work Done in Adiabatic Process given Adiabatic Index?

Work Done in Adiabatic Process given Adiabatic Index calculator uses Work = (Mass of Gas*[R]*(Initial Temperature-Final Temperature))/(Heat Capacity Ratio-1) to calculate the Work, Work Done in Adiabatic Process given Adiabatic Index formula is defined as the energy transferred to or from a thermodynamic system during an adiabatic process, which occurs without the transfer of heat or mass of the system, and is a measure of the total energy change of the system. Work is denoted by W symbol.
