A piston-cylinder device initially contains steam at 200 kPa, 250°C, and 0.4 m3. At this state, a linear spring is touching the piston, but exerts no force on it. Heat is now slowly transferred to the steam, causing the pressure and the volume to rise to 300 kPa and 0.7 m3, respectively. Show the process on a P-v diagram with respect to saturation lines and determine the following:
a. The final temperature
b. The work done by the steam
c. The total heat transferred

QUESTION 24
A piston-cylinder device contains 50 kg of water at 250 kPa and 25 degree C. The cross-sectional area of the piston is 0.1 m2. Heat is now transferred to the water, causing part of it to evaporate and expand. When the volume reaches 0.2 m3 the piston reaches a linear spring whose spring constant is 100 kN/m. More heat is transferred to the water until the piston rises 20 cm more. Determine (a) the final pressure and temperature...
