Thermal Cycle Processes

Heat Transfer Solid & Liquid:			1^st Law of Thermodynamics		Ideal Gas		System
Gas:
* Const.  Volume:		* Const. Pressure:
Where: Q =  heat,  U = internal energy,  p = pressure,  V= volume, cV = specific heat for constant volume, cp = specific heat for constant pressure, W = work, R= gas constant, T = temperature, hcycle = cycle heat efficiency, Qin = input heat energy, Qout = output heat energy, m = molecular mass, ∆ = change in quantity, g = adiabatic index
