Question

An adiabatic frictionless piston-cylinder device initially contains 4 kg of saturated R-134a liquid at 400 kPa. The refrigerant is then heated using a resistance wire that receives a current of 6 A from a DC power supply for 20 seconds and the volume is i

An adiabatic frictionless piston-cylinder device initially contains 4 kg of saturated R-134a liquid at 400 kPa. The refrigerant is then heated using a resistance wire that receives a current of 6 A from a DC power supply for 20 seconds and the volume is increased 100 times. Determine (a) the initial temperature, (b) the final temperature, (c) the change in the specific enthalpy, and (d) the voltage of the power source. Also show the process on the P-v diagram with respect to saturation lines.
