Explanation of Solution

Given:

Initial pressure of steam is 75 kPa.

Initial quality is 8%.

Initial volume is 2 m3.

Final volume is 5 m3.

Final pressure of the steam is 225 kPa.

Calculation:

From the Table A-5, to obtain the value of the specific volume of saturated liquid is vf, the specific volume of saturated vapour is vg, the specific internal energy of saturated liquid is uf, the specific internal energy change upon vaporization is vfg at initial pressure of 250kPa.

  vf1=0.001037m3/kgvg1=2.2172m3/kguf1=384.36kJ/kgufg1=2111.8kJ/kg

The specific volume of the spring-loaded piston cylinder device is,

  v1=vf1+xvfg1

  v1=(0.001037m3/kg)+(0.08)×(2.2172m3/kg0.001037m3/kg)=(0.001037m3/kg)+(0.08)×(2.216163m3/kg)=0.1783m3/kg

The initial specific internal energy of the spring-loaded piston cylinder device is,

  u1=uf1+xufg1

  u1=(384.36kJ/kg)+(0.08)×(2111.8kJ/kg)=(384.36kJ/kg)+(168.94kJ/kg)=553.30kJ/kg

The mass of the system is,

  m=ν1v1

  m=2m30.1783m3/kg=11.217kg

Determine the final specific volume of the piston cylinder device.

  v2=V2m

  v2=(5m3)(11.217kg)=0.44575m3/kg0.4458m3/kg

From the Table A-5, to obtain the value of the specific volume of saturated liquid is vf, the specific volume of saturated vapour is vg, the specific internal energy of saturated liquid is uf, the specific internal energy change upon vaporization is vfg at final pressure of 225kPa.

  vf2=0.001064m3/kgvg2=0.79329m3/kguf2=520.47kJ/kgufg2=2012.7kJ/kg

Determine the quality of final state for the spring-loaded piston-cylinder device.

  x2=v2vf2(vg2vf2)

  x2=(0.4458m3/kg)(0.001064m3/kg)(0.79329m3/kg0.001064m3/kg)=(0.444736m3/kg)(0.792226m3/kg)=0.561375

The final specific internal energy of the spring-loaded piston cylinder device is,

  u2=uf2+x2ufg2

  u2=(520.47kJ/kg)+(0.561375)×(2012.7kJ/kg)=(520.47kJ/kg)+(1129.75kJ/kg)=1650.35kJ/kg1650.4kJ/kg

The work done during the constant pressure process is,

  Wb,out=12Pdν=P1+P22(ν2ν1)

  Wb,out=(75+225)kPa2(52)m3=300kPa2×3m3=150kPa×3m3=450kJ

Thus, the work produced during the process is 450kJ.

The energy balance equation is,

  EinEout=ΔEsystemQinWb,out=ΔUQin=m(u2u1)+Wb,out

  Qin=(11.217kg)(1650.4kJ/kg553.30kJ/kg)+450kJ=(11.217kg)(1097.1kJ/kg)+450kJ=12756kJ

Thus, the heat transferred during the process is 12,756kJ.
