Mechanical Engineering

A closed rigid cylindrical vessel (internal diameter = 2 ft andinternal height = 10 ft) has R-134a at x = 0.95 and 40 oF. Thevessel is heated up to 100 oF. Assume that heat loss from thevessel is negligible. Kinetic and potential effects are negligible.Determine 1) the final pressure in psi [lbf/in2], 2) the mass ofR-134a in lbm, 3) the heat transfer in Btu for this process anddiscuss its direction (if the heat is added to or rejected from thesystem), 4) the work transfer in Btu for this process and discussits direction (if the work is done by or on the system), and 5)draw the process in T-v (temperature-specific volume) diagram.
