Ques #01 (MA2003- SEM I 2012/13
Figure 1 shows a cylinder containing 0.1 m3 of water vapour
mixture with 1% of its volume in the liquid state (position 1). The
piston weights 100 kN and has a cross-sectional area of 0.5 m2. The
system is exposed to the atmospheric pressure of 100 kPa.

Q
Figure 1: A Piston-cylinder arrangement
Heat is added at a rate of 600 W causing the piston to move from
position 1 to position 2
2, where only saturated vapour exists and the
piston touches the spring with a spring constant of 50 kN/m. At that
position, heat is removed. Due to heat loss, the piston drops to
position 2
2 , where the quality of water vapour is 0
0.9.
9 An additional
amount of heat Q is applied to the system causing the piston to
move up to position 3 and stop.
