Applying the Energy Balance

As shown in Fig. P3.85, 0.5 kg of ammonia is contained in a piston–cylinder assembly, initially at T1 = -20°C and a quality of 25%. As the ammonia is slowly heated to a final state, where T2 = 20°C, p2 = 0.6 MPa, its pressure varies linearly with specific volume. There are no significant kinetic and potential energy effects. For the ammonia, (a) show the process on a sketch of the p–v diagram and (b) evaluate the work and heat transfer, each in kJ.
