Question: Problem 2 ( 2 0 points ) A piston - cylinder assembly is initially filled with superheated water vapor at 9 0 0 C .

Problem 2(20 points)
A piston-cylinder assembly is initially filled with
superheated water vapor at 900C. The system is
cooled down until its temperature is 150C. The
piston is initially in equilibrium with a constant
pressure outside of 10 MPa . The cylinder has stops
that prevent the volume to decrease below 50% of
the initial volume. The temperature of the piston-
cylinder surface is 500 K . Calculate:
a. the amount of work in kJkg.
b. the amount of heat extracted in kJkg.
c. the entropy production in kJkgK.
d. Show the process on a properly labeled sketch
of the P-v diagram.
