Required information
A piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.25 kg of steam at 3.5 MPa , superheated by 7.4C. Now the steam loses heat to
the surroundings and the piston moves down, hitting a set of stops at which point the cylinder contains saturated liquid
water. The cooling continues until the cylinder contains water at 200C.
a) Find the final pressure and quality of the mixture in kPa
B) Determine the boundry work (Wb,out) in kJ
C) Determine the amount of heat transfer when the piston first hits the stops (Qin,1-2) in kJ
D) Determine the total heat transfer (Qin,1-3) in kJ
