One kilogram of air in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes a thermodynamic cycle consisting of three processes: Process 1-2: Constant specific volume

Process 2-3: Constant-temperature expansion

Process 3-1: Constant-pressure compression

At state 1, the temperature is 323 K, and the pressure is 1 bar. At state 2, the pressure is 2 bar. Employing the ideal gas equation of state,

(a) Sketch the cycle on p-v coordinates.

(b) Determine the temperature at state 2, in K.
