REQUIRES ACCESS TO THE STEAM TABLES

1. 100 kg of water is contained in a piston-cylinder device. Initially, it is saturated liquid water
at P=10 bar. It is heated at constant pressure until it is superheated steam at P=10 bar and
T=250 °C.

A) Determine the change in internal energy (U) of the water, in kJ.
B) Determine the amount of work (WEC) done on, or by, the water in this process.



SOLUTION:

Specific internal energy and specific volume are both available in the steam tables.

A)

������ − ����� = �(������� − ������)

��
������ − ����� = (100 ��) (2710.4 − 761.4 ) = ���. ��� ��
��



B)
������
��� = − ∫ ���
�����


For constant pressure system:

��� = −�(������ − ����� ) = �(����� − ������)


1 2
�3 10 �� 1�
5

��� = (10 ���)(100 ��) (0.001127 − 0.233 )( )( )( )
�� ��� 1 �� 1 ��


��� = −2.319 � 107 � = −��, ��� ��

Negative sign represents work done by water on the surroundings.
