(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
now cooled so the R-134a remains at constant
pressure until it reaches a quality of 75%.

(5.48/5.46) A water-filled reactor with volume of
1 m3 is at 20 MPa, 3600C and placed inside a
containment room. The room is well insulated and
initially evacuated. Due to a failure, the reactor
ruptures and water fills the containment room. Find
the minimum room volume, so the final Pressure
does not exceed 200 kPa.

(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.
