2. a. Steam at a pressure of 100 kPa and a quality of 50% initially fills a rigid
vessel having a volume of 0.5 m3. The steam is then heated, causing the
pressure in the vessel to rise to 150 kPa. Determine:
i. The mass of the steam in the vessel.
ii. The temperature and quality of the steam after the heating process.
iii. The mass of the vapour, mg and liquid, mf in the vessel after the
heating process.
b. If the steam in the vessel is now further heated, what would the pressure and
temperature in the vessel be when all steam has turned into saturated
vapour?
c. Sketch the processes in part (a) and part (b) on P-v and T-v diagrams,
indicating clearly the temperatures, pressures and the paths.

the end of the isothermal process.
ii. The state of the refrigerant at the end of the constant volume process.
iv. The work done in each process, in kJ.
