Exactly 1.73 kg of water vapor is contained in a piston-cylinder assembly at a pressure of 1.00 MPa and temperature 600.°C. The vapor is isothermally compressed to 80.0 MPa. Determine the sum of the work and heat energy transports in this process.
Helpful Hint:
The water vapor is superheated since 600 C is above the saturation temperature. Use superheated steam tables to find u1 and u2. Solve for 1Q2 - 1W2 using the modified EB expression (ke and pe terms drop out).
