Calculate the heat transfer for the process described in Problem 4.72. A cylinder containing 2 lbm of ammonia has an externally loaded piston. Initially the ammonia is at 280 lbf/in 2, 360 F and is now cooled to saturated vapor at 105 F, and then further cooled to 65 F, at which point the quality is 50%. Find the total work for the process, assuming a piecewise linear variation of P versus V.
