A tank having a volume of 0.85 m3 initially contains water at 260 oF and x = 0.7. Saturated vapor is slowly withdrawn at the top of the tank as energy is transferred by heat to maintain constant pressure. The process continues until the tank is filled with just saturated vapor. Determine the heat transferred in kJ. Show all your calculations.

Two spherical vessels of different sizes contain the same gas and are connected by means of a pipe with a valve. Sphere A has a diameter of 5 foot at the given pressure gauge of 50 kgf/cm2. Sphere B contains the same gas at 20 kgf/cm² gauge. The valve is opened and when the properties have been determined, it is found out that the gauge pressure is 36 kgf/cm2. The temperature at the two vessels before and after opening the valve is maintained at 21.1°C.
