QUESTION:

Steam enters a nozzle operating at steady state at 20 bar, \(280^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), with a velocity of 80 m/s. The exit pressure and temperature are 7 bar and \(180^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\), respectively. The mass flow rate is 1.5 kg/s. Neglecting heat transfer and potential energy, determine

(a) the exit velocity, in m/s.

(b) the inlet and exit flow areas, in \(\mathrm{cm}^{2}\).
