A piston-cylinder assembly contains a two-phase liquid-vapor mixture of water with an initial dryness fraction of 50%. The mass of the piston is 15 kg with a diameter of 10 cm. The surroundings exert a pressure of 1 atm in the piston. Heat is added to the system under the isopiestic process until the piston hits the stops. The final condition of the steam is saturated vapor. Determine the work in kW if the mass of the mixture is 17.521 kg/s.
