In a fixed volume container with a volume of 0.1 m^3, initially there is saturated water vapor at 130°C. The vessel is connected to a pipe through which steam flows through a valve at 2 MPa pressure and 350°C temperature. Then the valve opens and steam enters the container. Meanwhile, the temperature of the steam in the container remains constant at 130°C due to the heat transfer to the environment. When it is observed that 3/4 of the water in the container covers the liquid phase by mass, the valve is closed. Calculate a) the final pressure in the container, b) the mass of steam entering the container, c) the heat transfer to the environment.
