Question: Steam ( x = 0 . 9 ) is enclosed in yet another piston - cylinder assembly, at a pressure of 2 MPa. The system

Steam (x=0.9) is enclosed in yet another piston-cylinder assembly, at a pressure of 2MPa.
The system is heated isobarically to a final temperature of 350C.
a.(+2 points) Draw the process on both a T-v and P-v diagram.
b. points) Calculate the specific work (kJkg) done by the steam during this
process.
c.(+3 points) Calculate the change in specific internal energy of the system. Comment
on if the sign (+ or -) makes sense conceptually.
d.(+3 points) How much heat was supplied to the system? Comment on if the sign (+
or -) of your answer makes sense conceptually.
e.(+2 points) How much latent heat (e.g., specific enthalpy) must be applied to the
steam in order to fully evaporate the water? (Hint: Use enthalpy and the latent heat
of evaporation).
