Question:

Consider the piston/cylinder arrangement. A frictionless piston is free to move between two sets of stops. When the piston rests on the lower stops, the enclosed volume is 400 L. When the piston reaches the upper stops, the volume is 600L. The cylinder initially contains water at 100 kPa, 20% quality. It is heated until the water eventually exists as saturated vapor. The mass of the piston requires 300 kPa pressures to move it against the outside ambient pressure. Determine the final pressure in the cylinder, the heat transfer and the work for the overall process.
