Airplane takeoff from an aircraft carrier is assisted by a steam-driven piston/cylinder assembly. A 17,500 kg airplane should accelerate from 0 to 30 m/s with 30% of its energy coming from the steam piston. The pressure in the cylinder starts at 10 bar (1000 kPa), dropping linearly with volume to reach 2 bar (200 kPa) at the end of the process. What is the needed piston displacement volume in m3?
