Water vapor initially at 3.0 MPa and 300oC (state 1) is contained within a piston-cylinder assembly. The water is cooled at constant volume until its temperature reaches 200oC (state 2). The water is then compressed isothermally to a state where the pressure is 2.5 Mpa (state 3).
(a) Locate states 1, 2, and 3 on T-v and P-v diagrams.
(b) Determine the specific volumes at states 1, 2, and 3 in cm3/g and the quality at state 2.
