A frictionless piston-cylinder device initially contains 200L of saturated liquid refrigerant-134a. The piston is free to move and its mass is such that it maintains a pressure of 900 kPa on the refrigerant. The refrigerant is now heated until its temperature rises to 70C. Calculate the work done during this process.
