A piston–cylinder device with a set of stops initially
contains 0.6 kg of steam at 1.0 MPa and 400°C. The location
of the stops corresponds to 40 percent of the initial volume.
Now the steam is cooled. Determine the compression work
if the final state is (a) 1.0 MPa and 250°C and (b) 500 kPa.
(c) Also determine the temperature at the final state in part (b).
