A cylinder/piston arrangement contains saturated water at 115°C with a volume of 0.1 L (state 1). The system is heated, causing the piston to rise and encounter a linear spring, as shown in figure. At this point (state 2) the volume is 15 L, the piston diameter is 230 mm, and the spring constant is 115 N/mm. The heating continues, so the piston compresses the spring until all the water becomes saturated vapor (state 3). Neglect the weight of the...
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?
Ten kilograms of water in a piston/cylinder arrangement exists as saturated liquid/vapor at 100 kPa, with a quality 20%. The system is now heated so that the volume triples. The mass of the piston is such that a cylinder of 300 kPa will float it. (a) Find the final temperature. (b) Find the heat transfer in the process. (c) What is the phase of water when the piston just starts to lift up? (d) Sketch the process on a P-v...
A piston-cylinder arrangement contains Nitrogen initially at 200 kPa, 107 C and 0.30 m3. The piston moves until the pressure increases to 500 kPa. The pressure-volume relationship during the process is described by the equation: P= -2000 V + 800 where P is in kPa and V in m3 (a) Determine the mass of Nitrogen in kilograms (b) Determine the work done (boundary work) “on” or “by” the Nitrogen in kJ (state which). (c) Determine the final temperature.
A piston cylinder device initially contains 1.2kg of saturated liquid water at 220oC. Now, heat is transferred to the water until the volume quadruples and the cylinder contains saturated vapor only. Determine (a) the final volume of the tank, (b) the final temperature (c) the final pressure, and (d) the change in internal energy of the tank. To check your work, enter the final pressure in kPa in the box below. Also, sketch this process on a T-v diagram.
An insulated piston-cylinder device contains 5 L of saturated liquid water at a constant pressure of 175 kPa. Water is stirred by a paddle wheel while a current of 8 A flows for 45 min through a-resistor placed in the water. If one-half of the liquid is evaporated during this constant pressure process and the paddle-wheel work amounts to 400 kJ, determine the voltage of the source. Also, show the process on a P-v diagram with respect to saturation lines.

Consider the piston/cylinder arrangement shown in Fig1. A frictionless piston is free to move between two sets of stops. When 3 the piston rests on the lower stops, the enclosed volume is 0.5 m3. When the piston reaches the upper stops, the volume is 0.8 m . The cylinder initially contains water at 200 kPa, 60% quality. The mass of the piston requires 600 kPa pressure to move it against the outside ambient pressure. a) When heat is transferred until...
