An adiabatic piston-cylinder device equipped with a spring maintains the pressure inside at 300 kPa when the volume is 0, and 3000 kPa when the volume is 5 m3. The device is connected to a steam line maintained at 1500 kPa and 200°C, and initially the volume is 0. Determine the final temperature (and quality if appropriate) when valve is opened and steam in the line is allowed to enter the cylinder .until the pressure inside matches that in the line. Also determine the total work produced during this adiabatic filling process.
