Problem 3.052
A piston–cylinder assembly contains 2 lb of water, initially at
100 lbf/in.2 and 450°F. The water undergoes two
processes in series: a constant-pressure process followed by a
constant volume process. At the end of the constant-volume process,
the temperature is 300°F and the water is a two-phase liquid–vapor
mixture with a quality of 40%. Neglect kinetic and potential energy
effects.
Determine the work and heat transfer for each process, all in
Btu.

Ammonia in a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes two processes in series. At the initial state, pi- 120 lbfin? and the quality is 100%. Process 1-2 occurs at constant volume until the temperature is 100°F. The second process, from state 2 to state 3, occurs at constant temperature, with Q23-98.9 Btu, until the quality is again 100%.

Can someone help me with this thermodynamics problem? A piston‐cylinder assembly contains 1.5 lb of air initially at 80°F and 1 atm. The air undergoes a constant‐pressure process during which the rate of heat transfer from the air is 4 Btu/h resulting in a final air temperature of 40°F. Assuming ideal gas behavior with k = 1.4 and negligible effects of kinetic and potential energy for the air, determine the time, in minutes, associated with the process.
2 kg Water in a vertical piston cylinder arrangement, is initially at saturated liquid state at 3 bar. It is heated and undergoes constant pressure expansion to a state of saturated vapor. What is the work done by the piston cylinder arrangement to the environment? Neglect the mass of the piston, piston friction, kinetic and potential energy changes. Hint: this is a closed system problem, remember control volume boundary work concept. What is the heat transfer into the water?
