Steam, initially at 700 lbf/in.2, 550°F undergoes a polytropic process in a piston-cylinder assembly to a final pressure of 2900 lbf/in.² Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the heat transfer, in Btu per lb of steam, for a polytropic exponent of 1.4, (a) using data from the steam tables. (b) assuming ideal gas behavior.

A piston-cylinder assembly contains Refrigerant 22, initially a saturated vapor at 5 bar. The refrigerant undergoes a process for which the pressure-specific volume relationship is pv = constant to a final pressure of 20 bar. Kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. a. For your schematic, provide a rough sketch of your system, with arrows indicating direction of work and heat (i.e, in or out of the system) b. Determine the work and heat transfer for the process, each in (kJ/kg)
