Your example is crap, obviously.

You asked. Sorry, if they are incongruent with yours. This is an open forum. Call my knowledge "superior" isn't helping you or me. Your knowledge and mine are equal in that our points are based on what we have learned. I as well as you and others here try to learn things from others, and ...

Apparently I need further clarification. Sorry. You are going to ridiculous, bizarre extremes to "prove" my statement that compression generates heat of compression during compression is "misleading". Just because heat is also added due to displacer motion is irrelevant to the f...

...The link you sent left out what accomplished the expansion. It states clearly: "heat supplied to the gas". Also: "work performed by the gas " Perfectly clear IMO. "Heat supplied to the gas" "work performed by the gas" Anyway, this is VincentG's question to...

Driving posters away opens the door for new posters to which your job, as educator, starts up at the beginning. As I've tried, you have identified an anomaly that bares further investigation. But it still may fit nicely into 200 year old and current theory. Your methods of discourse here suffer fro...

As you like to point out the "heat of compression" is "instantaneous" so it stops when the volume change stops. The gas is being pushed through the regenerator to the hot space at the fastest rate. Compression is zero. Delta energy from compression is zero during this period. So...

The online example says nothing about "pulling" You would only have to pull on it for the whole stroke if the buffer pressure were at or higher than P1. P2 is even lower. If the buffer pressure where lower than P2 no pulling would be necessary for the whole stroke, but a stop would be nee...

I suppose I should mention the first is energy/work out, the second requires energy/work input. The first pushes, the second must be pulled. I hope this makes sense. The online example says nothing about "pulling" Ideal gas of a volume of 1 m3 at initial pressure of 200 kPa is expanding i...

So what?

It just completed generating "heat of compression" the heat of compression is at the maximum and still there, concentrated at TDC.

Your long diatribe is irrelevant.

P1V1/T1 = P2•V2/T2 For the given parameters: P1=P2 Canceling P from both sides: V1/T1 = V2/T2 From given parameters: T2=2•T1 Inserting in to the equation: P1/T1=P2/(2•T1) Dividing both sides by (2•T1): P1•(2•T1) / T1 = P2 Cancelling T1 top and bottom and rearranging: 2•P1 = P2 Please show your &quo...

Please go back and read the conversation. With the input of 36.5J, the temperature increases from 300K to 600K and doubles the volume from 100cc to 200cc. The final pressure balances atmospheric, plus a negligible fraction for holding up the weight of the piston, which I didn't calculate. Are you s...

So we are in agreement then? Earlier in the conversation with Vincent I showed that doubling the volume of 100cc of working fluid in a 1cm^2 area cylinder against atmosphere would require 36.5J of energy passed into the working fluid. Then I showed that lifting a 102g piston as well as pushing agai...

Well, "adiabatic" IS without any kind of thermal transfer in or out of the gas. To me that is a less complex scenario than isothermal which for every joule of work done by the gas an equivalent amount of heat is added to replace it. Very true, but my point being that an adiabatic expansio...
