A piston cylinder device contains 800 kg of water at an


A piston cylinder device contains 8.00 kg of water at an initial pressure of 200 kPa.

Initially the piston is at rest on a set of stops and the initial volume is 2.00m3. Heat is transferred to the water until the pressure increases to 1000 kPa when the piston lifts and rises to double the volume. Determine the:

i) The temperature of the water: initially, the instant the piston lifts off from the st ops and the final temperature.

ii) Show the process on a P - v diagram.

iii) The boundary work done during the process.

iv) The percentage of the total heat transfer during the constant pressure process
