A turbine discharges 200 kg/h of saturated steam at 10.0 bar absolute. It is desired to generate steam at 250°C and 10.0 bar by mixing the turbine discharge with a second stream of superheated steam of 300°C and 10.0 bar.
(a) If 300 kg/h of the product steam is to be generated, how much heat must be added to the mixer?
(b) If instead the mixing is carried out adiabatically, at what rate is the product steam generated?

ANSWER:Step 1 of 3
The condensation process is affected when a combination of superheated steam the saturated steam is achieved. The overall system is represented as follows:
