Sclohon ‘Thermodynamics I QUIZ ENGR 251/2 Fall 11 CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND COMPUTER SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING Tutorial section: A BC PROBLEM | [40 pf] 3-60 A piston-cylinder device initially contains steam at 3.5 MPa, superheated by 5°C. Now, steam loses heat to the surroundings and the piston moves down hitting a set of stops at which point the cylinder contains saturated liquid water. The cooling continues until the cylinder contains water at 200°C. Determine (a) the initial temperature, (b) the enthalpy change per unit mass of the steam by the time the piston first hits the stops, and (c) the final pressure and the quality (if mixture). wn‘Thermodynamics 1 ouz1 ENGR 251/2 Fall 11 PROBLEM II [40 pt] ‘The top part of a water tank is divided into two compartments, as shown in the figure below. ‘Now a fluid with an unknown density is poured into one side, and the water level rises ‘certain amount on the other side to compensate for this effect. Based on the final fluid heights: ‘shown on the figure, determine the density ofthe fluid added. Assume the liquid does not mix with water. PROBLEM Ill [20 pt] 41.
