Problem 169HP

An initially empty spring-loaded piston/cylinder requires 100 kPa to float the piston. A compressor with a line and valve now charges the cylinder with water to a final pressure of 1.4 MPa, at which point the volume is 0.6 m3, state 2. The inlet condition to the reversible adiabatic compressor is saturated vapor at 100 kPa. After charging, the valve is closed and the water eventually cools to room temperature, 20° C, state 3. Find the final mass of water, the piston work from 1 to 2, the required compressor work, and the final pressure, P3.
