Problem 111HP
Mixing Processes
Ageothermal supply of hotwater at 500 kPa, 150°C is fed to an insulated flash evaporator at the rate of 1.5 kg/s. A stream of saturated liquid at 200 kPa is drained from the bottom of the chamber, and a stream of saturated vapor at 200 kPa is drawn from the top and fed to a turbine. Find the mass flow rate of the two exit flows.
