**Problem 3-37E:**

A spring-loaded piston-cylinder device is initially filled with 0.2 lbm of an R-134a liquid-vapor mixture whose temperature is -30°F and whose quality is 80 percent. The spring constant in the spring force relation \( F = kx \) is 37 lbf/in, and the piston diameter is 12 in. The R-134a undergoes a process that increases its volume by 40 percent. Calculate the final temperature and enthalpy of the R-134a.

**Answers:** 81.5°F, 120 Btu/lbm

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram labeled "FIGURE P3-37E" shows a vertical piston-cylinder device. Inside the cylinder, a spring is positioned above a fluid labeled as "Fluid." This represents the R-134a liquid-vapor mixture. The spring is compressed initially, indicating a potential for expansion. The cylinder has a defined piston diameter marked as \( D \).

# Superheated Refrigerant-134a: Property Tables and Charts

## TABLE A-13E

This table provides thermodynamic properties of superheated refrigerant-134a at various pressures and temperatures. The properties listed are:

- **T (°F)**: Temperature in degrees Fahrenheit.
- **\( u \) (Btu/lbm)**: Specific internal energy in British thermal units per pound mass.
- **\( h \) (Btu/lbm)**: Specific enthalpy in British thermal units per pound mass.
- **\( s \) (Btu/lbm R)**: Specific entropy in British thermal units per pound mass per degree Rankine.

The table is divided into different sections, each for a specific pressure:

- **\( P = 10 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = -29.52°F)**
- **\( P = 15 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = -14.15°F)**
- **\( P = 20 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = 2.43°F)**
- **\( P = 30 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = 15.37°F)**
- **\( P = 40 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = 29.91°F)**
- **\( P = 50 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = 40.37°F)**
- **\( P = 60 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = 49.84°F)**
- **\( P = 70 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = 58.30°F)**
- **\( P = 80 \text{ psia} (T_{\text{sat}} = 65.89°F)**

### Explanation of Data Columns:

- **Sat.**: Denotes properties at saturation condition.
- **Temperature (T°F)**: Represents the temperature at which the properties are measured.
- **Specific Internal Energy (\( u \))**: Energy contained within the refrigerant due to the motions and interactions of its molecules.
- **Specific Enthalpy (\( h \))**: Total heat content of the refrigerant, including internal energy and the product of pressure and volume.
