(A)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Determine the work and heat transfer for the process.

Concept Introduction:

An energy balance equation piston cylinder arrangement.

Δ{M(U^+V22+gh)}=[j=1j=J{mj,in(H^j+Vj22+ghj)}k=1k=K{mk,out(H^k+Vk22+ghk)}+WEC+WS+Q]

Here, mass of the system is M, specific internal energy is U^, velocity is V, acceleration due to gravity is g, height is h, individual quantities of mass added to and removed from the process is mj,inandmk,out respectively, initial specific enthalpy is H^j, final specific enthalpy is H^k, initial velocity is Vj, final velocity is Vk, initial height is hj, final height is hk, shaft work addition is WS, work addition through expansion or contraction of the system is WEC, and heat addition is Q.

Here, the height, velocity, shaft work is zero.

The expression to calculate the amount of work done (WEC):

WEC=PdV=P(VfinalVinitial)=P[(V^final×M)(V^initial×M)]

Here, initial and final specific volume is V^initialandV^final, initial and final volume is VinitialandVfinal, pressure is P.

(B)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Determine the work, heat transfer for the process, and the percentage of part A far away from the Part B.

Concept Introduction:

The ideal gas equation in terms of initial volume:

Vinitial=NRTinitialP=MRTinitial(MW)P

Here, molecular weight of water is MW, number of moles is N, gas constant is R, and initial temperature is Tinitial.

The ideal gas equation in terms of final volume:

Vfinal=NRTfinalP=MRTfinal(MW)P

Here, molecular weight of water is MW, number of moles is N, gas constant is R, and initial temperature is Tinitial.

The expression to calculate the work done through expansion or contraction:

WEC=P(VfinalVinitial)

The expression to calculate the specific change in internal energy:

dU^=CV*dt

Integrate the above equation with initial and final condition.

U^initialU^finaldU^=initialfinalCV*dtU^finalU^initial=initialfinal(CP*R)dt

Here, constant volume heat capacity on a molar basis for ideal gas is CV* , constant pressure heat capacity on a molar basis for ideal gas is CP*.

(C)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

When the steams expands and work done is zero in the part A, the percentage of part A far away from the Part B.
