calculated in a similar way. The use of mean specific heat values enables more accurate evaluation of
temperature changes because the mean specific heats enable the energy equation to be solved with
an allowance for the variation of specific heats. The mean specific heats approach is depicted in Fig. 9.1.
9.4 MIXTURES OF IDEAL GASES
Many problems encountered in engineering involve mixtures of gases air itself is a mixture of many
gases although it can be considered to be oxygen and atmospheric nitrogen (which can be assumed to
contain the nitrogen in the air ...
