Question: Problem 1 5 : A piston / cylinder device contains 2 kg of liquid water at 2 0 C and 1 0 0 kPa .

Problem 15: A piston/cylinder device contains 2 kg of liquid water at 20C and 100 kPa . The water is then heated to 300C by a source at 500C. A pressure of 1 MPa will lift the piston off the rests. Note: for the internal energy, enthalpy and entropy of compressed water at pressures less than 2.5 MPa we can use the properties of saturated liquid water at the system temperature as a close approximation.
a) Sketch a P-v diagram of the process.
b) Determine the final volume.
c) Calculate the work done.
d) Calculate the heat transferred.
e) Calculate the total entropy generation.
Problem 16: A well-insulated heat exchanger has one line with 2kgs of air at 125 kPa and 1000 K entering, and leaving at 100 kPa and 400K.,mwater=0.5kgs The other line has 0.5kgs water entering at 200 kPa and 20C, and leaving at 200 kPa . Calculate the exit
P3=200kPa
T3=20C
nwater=0.5kgs
P4=200kPa
T4=
mair=2kgs
P2=100kPa
T2=400K
