Thank you you've been very helpful. I have just 1 last question though. How can I get VB from ln (V2/V1) ? would eW/nRT / V2 = V1 work?

Yeah, sorry I had the wrong unit there (fixed it). I could try using e = Th - Tc / TH to get the efficiency and then use e = W / QH in some way to get volume or pressure perhaps. I wonder if perhaps I have the temperatures mixed up. and Tc should be c → d ?

I posted this in the engineer / comp science thread, but I've had no one reply or help. I really could use some guidance and I don't know where else to post. Homework Statement I am tasked to create a PV Diagram of a Carnot Engine Cycle. I must find pressure, volume, Q, W, ΔU, and ΔS on all...

Homework Statement I am tasked to create a PV Diagram of a Carnot Engine Cycle. I must find pressure, volume, Q, W, ΔU, and ΔS on all four points. This is what has been given to me by my teacher: a to b : Isothermal b to c: Adiabatic c to d: Isothermal d to a: Adiabatic TC = 300 K TH = 1700 K...
