A rigid tank has a volume of 0.01m3. It initially contains saturated water at a temperature of 200°C and a quality of 0.4. The top of the tank contains a pressure-regulating valve that maintains the vapor at constant pressure. This system undergoes a process whereby it is heated until all the liquid vaporizes. How much head (in kJ) is required? You may assume that there is no pressure drop in the exit line.
