A large tank is divided into two equal volumes. One half of the tank is filled with saturated water of unknown quality at temperature = 320 °F. The other half of the tank is evacuated (i.e there is nothing in it). When the partition separating the two halves breaks, the water will expand to fill the entire tank. The temperature is unchanged, and the final pressure is given below. Determine the quality of the water before the partition broke. Water isothermal jacket P=0 m=0 Pfinal = 80-psia

A large tank is divided into two equal volumes. One half of the tank is filled with saturated water of
unknown quality at temperature = 320 °F. The other half of the tank is evacuated (i.e there is nothing in
it). When the partition separating the two halves breaks, the water will expand to fill the entire tank.
The temperature is unchanged, and the final pressure is given below. Determine the quality of the water
before the partition broke.
