Answer to Question #221985 in Mechanical Engineering for Omelatum

Question

One lb 0 of a mixture of steam and water at 160 psia is in rigid vessel. Heat is added to the vessel until the contains are at 560 psia and 600 F. Determine the quality of heat in kJ added to the water and steam in the tank

Answer 1

$P_1 = 160 psi = 1103$ kPa

$P_2 = 560 psi = 3861$ kPa

$m= 0.45 kg$

$T_1 = 0^0K$

$T_2 = 588^0K$
