Air at 1 atm and 20 0C occupies an initial volume of 1000 cm3 in a cylinder. The air is confined by a piston which has a constant restraining force so that the gas pressure always remains constant. Heat is added to the air until its temperature reaches 260 0C. Calculate (a) the heat added (b) the work done by the gas, (c) the change in internal energy of the gas.

A piston-cylinder apparatus contains 4 kg of saturated liquid water at 35˚C. The piston’s cross sectional area is 0.06 m2 , and initially it is resting on stops, enclosing a volume of 0.03 m3 . To raise the piston, a pressure of 300kPa has to be applied. Heat is transferred until the volume is 0.075 m3 , at which point the piston encounters a linear spring. To deflect the spring 1 m, a force of 360 kN is required. More...

A cylinder fitted with a frictionless, massless piston contains compressed liquid water at a temperature T1=20C. The atmospheric pressure on the outside of the system is P=1.0 bar. Heat is then added until the water is completely converted to saturated vapor. (a) What are the changes in specific volume, v2-v1 (m3/kg) and internal energy, u2-u1 (kJ/kg) of the water for this process? (b) How much specific work, if any, is done by the system? (c) What is the amount of...

Three kilograms (3.0 kg) of saturated steam at 162oC is held in a closed piston-cylinder apparatus with a weighted piston that exerts a constant force on the steam. The piston-cylinder apparatus loses energy to the surroundings such that at a certain point 50% of the steam has condensed to a saturated liquid inside the cylinder (NOTE: the vapor and liquid are still saturated at the new condition). a. For the process described above, determine the heat exchange with the surroundings....

Water, initially (state 1) a saturated liquid at 1100C, is contained in a piston-cylinder assembly. The water undergoes a process to the corresponding saturated vapor (state 2), during which the piston moves freely in the cylinder. If the change of state is brought about by heating the water as it undergoes an internally reversible process at constant pressure and temperature, determine (a) heat transfer using first law of thermodynamics in kJ/kg and (b) heat transfer using second law of thermodynamics...

500 g of saturated liquid water is contained in a piston-cylinder arrangement. The inside diameter of the cylinder is 100 mm. The water is heated at a constant pressure of 150 kPa until it becomes saturated vapor. Determine (a) the distance through which the piston is raised, and (b) the amount of energy transferred to the water.
