A pipe operates at steady-state, steady-flow conditions. R-134a enters the pipe at 120°F and 60 psia, and exits at 50 psia and a quality of 0.90. The volumetric flow rate of the R-134a entering the pipe is 1.75 ft3/s. Assume that there are no work interactions.

(a) Determine the heat transfer rate to or from the pipe.


(b) Using your equations, plot the rate of heat transfer for the same inlet conditions and outlet pressure, but for outlet qualities varying between 0.0 and 1.0.
