3-45 A person cooks a meal in a pot that is covered with a well-fitting lid, and leaves the
food to cool to the room temperature. It is to be determined if the lid will open or the pan
will move up together with the lid when the person attempts to open the pan by lifting the
lid up.
Assumptions 1 The local atmospheric pressure is 1 atm = 101.325 kPa. 2 The weight of
the lid is small and thus its effect on the boiling pressure and temperature is negligible. 3
No air has leaked into the pan during cooling.
Properties The saturation pressure of water at 20C is 2.3392 kPa (Table A-4).
Analysis Noting that the weight of the lid is negligible, the reaction force F on the lid
after cooling at the pan-lid interface can be determined from a force balance on the lid in
the vertical direction to be
PA +F = PatmA
or,
( ) ( 2 / 4)( )

= 6997 m 2 Pa = 6997 N (since 1 Pa = 1 N/m 2 )
The weight of the pan and its contents is

kPa
Patm = 1 atm

which is much less than the reaction force of 6997 N at the pan-lid interface. Therefore,
the pan will move up together with the lid when the person attempts to open the pan by
lifting the lid up. In fact, it looks like the lid will not open even if the mass of the pan and
its contents is several hundred kg.
3-51 A rigid tank that is filled with saturated liquid-vapor mixture is heated. The
temperature at which the liquid in the tank is completely vaporized is to be determined,
and the T-v diagram is to be drawn.

3-54 [Also solved by EES on enclosed CD] A piston-cylinder device contains a saturated
liquid-vapor mixture of water at 800 kPa pressure. The mixture is heated at constant
pressure until the temperature rises to 350C. The initial temperature, the total mass of
water, the final volume are to be determined, and the P-v diagram is to be drawn.
Analysis (a) Initially two phases coexist in equilibrium, thus we have a saturated liquidvapor mixture. Then the temperature in the tank must be the saturation temperature at the
specified pressure,
T Tsat @800 kPa 170.41C
(b) The total mass in this case can easily be determined by adding the mass of each phase,

3-59 The properties of compressed liquid water at a specified state are to be determined
using the compressed liquid tables, and also by using the saturated liquid approximation,
and the results are to be compared.
Analysis Compressed liquid can be approximated as saturated liquid at the given
temperature. Then from Table A-4,
v v @ 100C 0.001043 m 3 /kg (0.72% error)
(1.02% error)
T = 100C @ 100C 419.06 kJ/kg
@ 100C 419.17 kJ/kg
(2.61% error)
From compressed liquid table (Table A-7),
v 0.001036 m 3 /kg

430.39 kJ/kg
The percent errors involved in the saturated liquid approximation are listed above in
parentheses.
3-61 Superheated steam in a piston-cylinder device is cooled at constant pressure until
half of the mass condenses. The final temperature and the volume change are to be
determined, and the process should be shown on a T-v diagram.
Analysis (b) At the final state the cylinder contains saturated
liquid-vapor mixture, and thus the final temperature must be the
saturation temperature at the final pressure,
T Tsat@1 MPa 179.88C (Table A-5)

3-66 The errors involved in using the specific volume and enthalpy of water by the
incompressible liquid approximation are to be determined.
Analysis The state of water is compressed liquid. From the steam tables,
10MPav 0.0 10385m3/kg

(Table A-7)
10 C 426.62 kJ/kg
Based upon the incompressible liquid approximation,
10 MPa v v @10 C 0.0 1043m3/kg
(Table -A 4)
10 C @10 C 419.17 kJ/kg
The errors involved are

which are quite acceptable in most engineering calculations.
