4-31E A 20 ft³ rigid tank initially contains saturated refrigerant-134a vapor at 160 psia. As a result of heat transfer from the refrigerant, the pressure drops to 50 psia. Show the process on a P-v diagram with respect to saturation lines, and determine (a) the final temperature, (b) the amount of refrigerant that has condensed, and (c) the heat transfer.
