Please include a system diagram, assumptions, and basic equations
Water contained inside a closed piston-cylinder device undergoes three processes.
Process 1 to 2: A constant pressure process from an absolute pressure of 5 bar with 0.05m3 saturated liquid
and 0.05m3 saturated vapor (State 1) to a temperature of 200C(State 2)
Process 2 to 3: A constant temperature process to saturated vapor (State 3)
Process 3 to 4: A constant pressure process to a temperature of 160C(State 4)
(a) Considering the constant temperature process from State 2 to State 3 to be polytropic Pvn= constant,
find the value of n.
(b) Calculate the specific work for each process, in kJkg.
(c) Determine the specific heat transfer for each process, in kJkg.
(d) Show the three processes on T-v diagram relative to the vapor dome and the appropriate lines of constant
pressure for the four states. Label states and identify process directions with arrows.
For water: Pcritical=221 bar and Tcritical=374C.
