QUESTION:
Saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water, called wet steam, in a steam line at 1500 kPa is throttled to 50 kPa and 1008C. What is the quality in the steam line?
ANSWER:Step 1 of 4
Steam is throttled from a specified pressure to a specified state. The quality at the inlet is to be determined.
Assumptions are
1. This is a steady-flow process since there is no change with time.
2. Kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible.
3. Heat transfer to or from the fluid is negligible.
4. There are no work interactions involved.
