Q1: A piston-cylinder device has 2 sets of stops as shown in the figure. Initially, the cylinder contains saturated vapor at 350 kPa and the piston rests on the lower stops (state 1). To move the piston a pressure of 500 kPa is needed (state 2). Heat is added till the piston hits the upper stops where the specific volume is 0.71095m3kg(state 3). More heat is added till the pressure inside the cylinder is 700 kPa (state 4). Draw the Pv diagram with respect to the saturation line and determine
(a) The initial temperature and the temperature at state 3
(b) The work done in kJ
(c) The heat added.
