(5.37/5.39) A cylinder fitted with a frictionless
piston contains 2 kg of superheated refrigerant
R-134a vapor at 350 kPa, 100oC. The cylinder is

pressure until it reaches a quality of 75%.

(5.57/5.51) A cylinder having a piston restrained by
a linear spring (of spring constant 15 kN/m)
contains 0.5 kg of saturated vapor water at 120°C,
as shown in Fig. Heat is transferred to the water,
causing the piston to rise. If the piston cross-
sectional area is 0.05 m2, and the pressure varies
linearly with volume until a final pressure of 500
kPa is reached. Find the final temperature in the
cylinder and the heat transfer for the process.

Engineering Thermodynamics
C.V. Water in cylinder.
Continuity: m2 = m1 = m ;
Energy : m(u2 - u1) = 1Q2 - 1W2
State 1: 120oC, saturated vapor
Table B.1.1(page 674 )
=> v1 = 0.89186 m3/kg, u1 = 2529.24 kJ/kg
Process: P2 = P1 + ksm/Ap2 (v2 - v1)

State 2: P2 = 500 kPa


500 kPa = 198.5+15 × 0.5/(0.05)2 (v2 - 0.89186)
 v2 = 0.9924 m3/kg

Engineering Thermodynamics
Table B.1.3 => T2 = 803°C; u2 = 3668 kJ/kg
W12 = ⌠ PdV = ((P1 + P2)/2) m(v2 - v1)
= ((198.5 + 500)/2) × 0.5 × (0.9924 - 0.89186)
= 17.56 kJ

1Q2= m(u2 - u1) + 1W2


= 0.5 × (3668 - 2529.2) + 17.56 = 587 kJ
