A cylinder contains a mixture of air and wet steam at a pressure of 130kN/m2 and a temperature of 760 C. The dryness fraction of the steam is 0.92. The air – steam mixture is then compressed to one-fifth of its original volume the final temperature being 1250 C. Determine:
a) The final pressure in the cylinder
b) The final dryness fraction of the steam.
Note: I need both right solutions.
