Process A: A piston-cylinder assembly, the piston was welded to the cylinder on both sides. Initially, it contains 100 kg of subcooled liquid water and is in mechanical equilibrium with the surrounding. A thermal reservoir was used to heat up the water to become saturated water at 350 °C with a quality of 0.6 (final state). a) Determine the volume of the water [m³] at the initial state. b) Is the pressure of water in mechanical equilibrium with the surrounding (i.e. Is Pwater = 10 MPa?) at the final state? If not, please determine the value of Pwater using steam tables. What is mass of liquid [kg] and mass of vapor [kg] at the final state?

Question
Process A: A piston-cylinder assembly, the piston was welded to the cylinder on both sides.
Initially, it contains 100 kg of subcooled liquid water and is in mechanical equilibrium with the
surrounding. A thermal reservoir was used to heat up the water to become saturated water at
350 °C with a quality of 0.6 (final state).
a) Determine the volume of the water [m³] at the initial state.
b) Is the pressure of water in mechanical equilibrium with the surrounding (i.e. Is Pwater = 10
MPa?) at the final state? If not, please determine the value of Pwater using steam tables.
c) What is mass of liquid [kg] and mass of vapor [kg] at the final state?
