🔍 Key Concepts

• Meaning of a bottled‑up boiler (all valves closed, no steam leaving, volume essentially fixed) • Definition of specific volume (volume per unit mass of steam) • How adding heat to a closed, rigid container affects pressure, temperature, and specific volume

💭 Think About

• If the boiler is properly bottled up, can any steam or water leave the system? What does that imply for total mass and total volume? • With total volume essentially fixed, think about what must happen to pressure when you add more heat to the same confined mass. • Specific volume is total volume divided by mass. If neither total volume nor total mass can change much, what does that suggest about specific volume as you heat the contents?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on whether a properly bottled‑up boiler allows any flow in or out (mass change). • Decide whether the total volume of the steam space can significantly change as the boiler heats up. • Check your choice against the definition of specific volume = volume ÷ mass and see if both parts (pressure and specific volume) are consistent with a sealed, nearly rigid system.
