A horizontal piston assembly contains water. The piston is connected to a shaft, which can apply different forces to the piston as the water is expanded or compressed. Initially the apparatus contains a saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water at .9 bar with quality of 80% and a volume of 1.0 m^3. The shaft is programmed to move following a polytropic processs until the volume doubles and the pressure is 0.7 bar.
A) For the initial state, what percent of the total volume is occupied by vapor?
B) Could Kinetic and potential effects be neglected for the system? Why or Why not?
C) Determine the amount of heat transfer required to accompany the process in kJ
D) For the initial state, calculate the amount of mass present in the vapor phase kg
E) Determine the type of polytrophic process (find n when PV^n= Constant
