One kilogram of Refrigerant 134a contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes a process from a state where the pressure is 7 bar and the quality is 50% to a state where the temperature is 16°C and the refrigerant is saturated liquid. Determine the change in specific entropy of the refrigerant, in kJ/kg K. Can this process be accomplished adiabatically?
