Find temperature of contents in cylinder at end of process


Consider a piston/cylinder arrangement that has a linear spring mounted such that as the piston rises to a certain point it will encounter the spring, which will offer a downward component of force as the piston rises further. Initially the cylinder contains water at 105 degree C, 85% quality with a volume of 1 L. The cylinder is heated and the piston rises until it encounters the spring at a cylinder volume of 1.5 L. If the piston diameter is 150 mm, the spring constant is 100 N/mm, and the final pressure in cylinder reaches 200 kPa after the heating process, find the temperature of the contents in the cylinder at the end of the process.
