Question: 2 . Water at 1 0 0 C , x = 0 . 2 5 is contained in a cylinder piston device. The water is

2. Water at 100C, x =0.25 is contained in a cylinder piston device. The water is to be brought to a final state of 300C and 400 KPa following the process below.
State 1) the initial state
State 2) reached after the water is compressed isothermally to a pressure of 1 MPa
State 3) reached after heat is added isobarically until the temperature reaches 300C
State 4) reached after the piston is adiabatically expanded in a reversible manner until the final pressure of 400 kPa
Determine:
For each state of the process, 6 intensive properties (including given in the problem statement) which define the state of the system and the phase (with quality if it is a saturated liquid-vapor mixture) of the system.
The heat and work exchanged between the system and the environment in the process between stages with directions
Sketch a P-v diagram of the process (include the vapor/liquid dome and all constant temperature lines).
