A piston-cylinder device initially contains steam at 5 MPa and 450°C. Now, steam loses heat to the surroundings and the piston moves down hitting a set of stops at which point the cylinder contains saturated vapor water. The cooling continues until the cylinder contains water at 180°C. Show the process on a T-v diagram with respect to saturation lines showing the three states it passes through. Also, put the values of temperature, pressure and specific volume for each state on the figure.

A piston–cylinder device initially contains 1.2 kg of air at 700 kPa and 200°C. At this state, the piston is touching on a pair of stops. The mass of the piston is such that 600-kPa pressure is required to move it. A valve at the bottom of the tank is opened, and air is withdrawn from the cylinder. The valve is closed when the volume of the cylinder decreases to 80 percent of the initial volume. If it is estimated that 40 kJ of heat is lost from the cylinder, determine the final temperature of the air in the cylinder.
