Acarnot power cycle is executed in a piston-cylinder system using 1 kg of water. the cycle consists of an isobaric expansion of a saturated liquid at 160 °c (state 1) to a volume of 0.30 m^3 (state 2) followed by a reversible adiabatic expansion to 20 °c (state 3). the water is then compressed isothermally to state 4, and finally compressed reversibly and adiabatically back to the original state 1.

(a) sketch the cycle on a p-v diagram.
(b) determine the heat transfer into the cycle and the net work for the cycle, in kj.
(c) calculate the thermal efficiency of this power cycle using the values found in part (b). compare this value with the value based on the maximum possible value for a reversible cycle operating between the absolute temperatures of the high-temperature and low-temperature thermal reservoirs.

Amass of m 1.5 kg of steam is contained in a closed rigid container. initially the pressure and temperature of the steam are: p 1.5 mpa and t 240°c (superheated state), respectively. then the temperature drops to t2= 100°c as the result of heat transfer to the surroundings. determine: a) quality of the steam at the end of the process, b) heat transfer with the surroundings. for: p1.5 mpa and t 240°c: enthalpy of superheated vapour is 2900 kj/kg, specific volume of superheated vapour is 0. 1483 m/kg, while for t 100°c: enthalpy of saturated liquid water is 419kj/kg, specific volume of saturated liquid water is 0.001043m/kg, enthalpy of saturated vapour is 2676 kj/kg, specific volume of saturated vapour is 1.672 m/kg and pressure is 0.1 mpa.
