Heat is added to the gas so +84kj (heat is given to the system),
pdv work is 1m * (.06-.03) = 30kj,
dQ =dU +pdv,
Gives du = 54.

@Vdp.

Yes, you are correct according to thermodynamic rules it should be in negative and answer value should be 114 KJ.

As the heat is given to system, so we take heat given as negative which ultimately leads us to 114.

Change in internal energy
Q=dE+w
84 = dE + 1*10^3*(.06-.03)
dE = 84 - 30
dE = 54 kJ.

@Sandeep.

Please explain. Why sign convention is not applied to nonflow processs?

Sandeep said:   9 years ago
Absolutely wrong @Vdp.

It's a nonflow process. 54 kj is the answer.

dU=dQ-dW.

= [(84*10^3)-{1*10^5*(.06-.03)}] J.
= 81000 J.
= 81 KJ.

Yes, it should be 114 KJ.

The correct Answer=54kj.
