A process to liquify nitrogen gas (N2) from 300K, 200atm to 98.69K (saturation temperature) and 7atm is to be designed. The specific enthalpy of the saturated liquid and saturated vapor at 7atm are, Hl = 74.7 J/g and Hv = 239.2 J/g respectively. Consider first using a throttle valve alone. Sketch the path corresponding to the conditions given above on the T-S diagram on the next page. Is it possible to achieve liquefaction by a throttle valve alone? State and justify your reasoning.

100%
A process to liquify nitrogen gas (N2) from 300K, 200atm to 98.69K (saturation
temperature) and 7atm is to be designed. The specific enthalpy of the saturated liquid and
saturated vapor at 7atm are, Hl = 74.7 J/g and Hv = 239.2 J/g respectively.
Consider first using a throttle valve alone. Sketch the path corresponding to the conditions
given above on the T-S diagram on the next page. Is it possible to achieve liquefaction by a
throttle valve alone? State and justify your reasoning.
