Question
(25%) Q2. It includes wet vapor of R717 with a quality of 0.2
at a temperature of 15°C in a frictionless and well insulated
piston-cylinder system shown in Fig. 2. Refrigerant is mixed
with a propeller and initially occupies a volume of 5 L. When
the pressure inside the cylinder reaches 800 kPa, the pin
holding the cylinder will be broken and the propeller will stop,
simultaneously. The piston moves upward after breaking the
pin up to the point where equilibrium condition is obtained.
Refrigerant is at saturated condition and a temperature of -15°C
when the system reaches thermodynamic equilibrium. Calculate
(a) the work done by the propeller, (b) The work done by the Fig. Q2 Piston-
refrigerant after the pin is broken, and (c) the final volume of
the refrigerant, (d) the entropy change of the refrigerant, (e) the entropy
generation through this process.
