Chapter 4.5, Problem 141RP
A piston–cylinder device initially contains 0.35 kg of steam at 3.5 MPa, superheated by 7.4°C. Now the steam loses heat to the surroundings and the piston moves down, hitting a set of stops at which point the cylinder contains saturated liquid water. The cooling continues until the cylinder contains water at 200°C. Determine (a) the final pressure and the quality (if mixture), (b) the boundary work, (c) the amount of heat transfer when the piston first hits the stops, and (d) the total heat transfer.

pressure was 2000 kPa and the temperature was 350°C. The substance has
undergone several expansion and compression processes. The air is first
expanded at a constant temperature to a pressure of 500 kPa and then
compressed polytropically with a polytropic exponent of 1.2 to the initial
pressure, and finally compressed isobarically to the initial state. Determine the
boundary work for each process and the net work of the cycle.
3. Initially, 0.55 kg of air is contained in a piston-cylinder device at 2 MPa and 350°C. The air is

exponent of 1.2 to the initial pressure, and finally compressed at the constant pressure to the
initial state. Determine the heat transfer for each process and the net heat of the cycle (in kJ).
