In a Piston-Cylinder system, it initially contains 2.8 bar and 40 C temperature R-134a refrigerant and the initial volume is 0.1 m3. First, heat is transferred to the system by holding the piston constant and this process is continued until the pressure is 3.2 bar. The process is then continued by allowing the volume to change while the pressure is kept constant. At the end of this process, the temperature reaches 50 C. Assuming stable changes in state, calculate the following. a) R-134a refrigerant mass in the system, b) The amount of heat transferred during the constant volume process, c) Calculate the amount of heat transferred during constant pressure operation. d) Show the processes in the P-v diagram
