Steam, initially at 700 lbf/in.2.550°F undergoes a polytropic process in a piston-cylinder assembly to a final pressure of 2900 lbf/in.2 Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the heat transfer, in Btu per lb of steam, for a polytropic exponent of 1.3, (a) using data from the steam tables. (b) assuming ideal gas behavior. Part A * Your answer is incorrect. Determine the heat transfer, in Btu per lb of steam, using data from the steam tables. Q/m = i 61.465 Btu/lb
