Question: 3 . 3 : Using Property Tables for Processes ( II ) A piston - cylinder assembly contains m = 0 . 1 k g

3.3: Using Property Tables for Processes (II)
A piston-cylinder assembly contains m=0.1kg of Refrigerant 134a. The refrigerant expands from an initial
state where p1=400kPa and T1=10C to a final state where p2=80kPa. During the process, the pressure
and specific volume are related by pv2= constant.
a) Sketch the process from the initial to end states on a P-v curve with a generic "saturation dome". Don't
worry about the exact shape of the process line, but be clear with putting the initial and final states
where they belong relative to the "dome".
b) Determine the work and heat transferred for the process (magnitude and direction), in kJ.
