A piston/cylinder contains 1.5 kg of water at 200 kPa, 150°C. It is now heated by a process in which pressure is linearly related to volume to a state of 600 kPa, 350°C. Find the final volume, the heat transfer, and the work in the process.

final volume V2 = 0.71136 m³

work done in process W = -291.24 kJ

heat transfer Q = 164 kJ

Explanation:

given data

mass = 1.5 kg

pressure p1 = 200 kPa

temperature t1 = 150°C

final pressure p2 = 600 kPa

final temperature t2 = 350°C

solution

we will use here superheated water table that is

for pressure 200 kPa and 150°C temperature

v1 = 0.95964 m³/kg

u1 = 2576.87 kJ/kg

and

for pressure 600 kPa and 350°C temperature

v2 = 0.47424 m³/kg

u2 = 2881.12 kJ/kg

so v1 is express as

V1 = v1 × m    ............................1

V1 = 0.95964 × 1.5

V1 = 1.43946 m³

and

V2 = v2 × m    ............................2

V2 = 0.47424 × 1.5

final volume V2 = 0.71136 m³

and

W = P(avg) × dV      .............................3

P(avg) =    = = 400 × 10³

put here value

W = 400 × 10³ × (0.71136 - 1.43946 )

work done in process W = -291.24 kJ

and

heat transfer is

Q = m × (u2 - u1)  + W       .............................4

Q = 1.5 × (2881.12 - 2576.87)  + 292.24

heat transfer Q = 164 kJ

true
