A gas is compressed from an initial volume of 0.42 m3 to a final volume of 0.12 m3. During the quasi-equilibrium process, the pressure changes with volume according to the relation P = aV + b, where a =_-1200 kPa/m3 and b = 600 kPa. Calculate the work done during this process (a) by plotting the process on a P-V diagram and finding the area under the process curve and (b) by performing the necessary integrations
As shown in the figure, a piston-cylinder assembly with a stopper contains R-410A, a refrigerant at 2 MPa pressure, 140°C temperature and 0.5 m volume. Initially, the piston stops just below the stoppers. The total value of the pressure created by the mass of the piston and the atmospheric pressure is given as 480.4 kPa. R-410A is cooled to -20°C (253.15 K). In this framework, find the heat transfer [kJ]. Draw the P (kPa)-v (m³/kg) or T (°C)-v (m³/kg) diagram for the phase change.
A rigid tank initially contains 4 kg of saturated liquid R-134a at 24C. A valve in the bottom of the tank is then opened allowing saturated liquid R-134a to flow out until the final mass in the tank is 0.25 kg and then the valve is closed. During this process, heat is transferred to the tank so that the temperature remains constant throughout this process. In the question that follows, select the answer that is closest to the true value. What is the quality at time 2 when the valve is closed?

A piston/cylinder assembly with a spring contains 0.075 kg of water. The piston is initially resting on the stops and the water has a temperature of T1 = 80°C and a quality of x1 = 30%. Heat is added to the water causing the piston to lift off the stops, rise up and compress the spring. Heating contin- ues until a final state is reached and the pressure is 200 kPa. The vertical distance between the top of the piston when it is resting on the stops and the bottom of the spring is Ay = 0.6 m, as shown in the figure. Assume the piston is massless (m, = 0), the area of the piston is A, = 0.12 m², the spring constant is k, = 40 kN/m and atmospheric pressure is Po = 100 kPa. a) Determine the volume, pressure and temperature of the water when the piston just lifts off the stops, V2, P2 and T2. b) Determine the pressure and specific volume of the water when the piston just touches but is not yet compressing the spring, P3 and v3. c) Determine the final volume of water in the piston/cylinder…
