A supply line carries a two-phase liquid–vapour mixture of steam at 450 psi. A small fraction of the flow in the line is diverted through a throttling calorimeter and exhausted to the atmosphere at 20 psi. The temperature of the exhaust steam is measured as 350°F. Determine the quality of the steam in the supply line

Heat Exchangers

Heat exchangers are the types of equipment that are primarily employed to transfer the thermal energy from one fluid to another, provided that one of the fluids should be at a higher thermal energy content than the other fluid.

Heat Exchanger

The heat exchanger is a combination of two words ''Heat'' and ''Exchanger''. It is a mechanical device that is used to exchange heat energy between two fluids.
