A surface condenser handles condensate at 70.15 cm Hg when barometer reads 76 cm Hg. Steam entering at 2360 kg/hr requires cooling water at 6.81 × 10² kg/hr, 10°C. Cooling water leaves condenser at 27.8°C while condenser has mean temperature of 37°C. Air leaks into condenser at 0.3 kg/min. Determine, (i) the mass of vapour going out with air per hour (ii) the state of steam entering. [119 kg/hr, 0.89]

A surface condenser handles condensate at 70.15 cm Hg when barometer reads 76 cm Hg. Steam
entering at 2360 kg/hr requires cooling water at 6.81 × 10² kg/hr, 10°C. Cooling water leaves
condenser at 27.8°C while condenser has mean temperature of 37°C. Air leaks into condenser at
0.3 kg/min. Determine,
(i) the mass of vapour going out with air per hour
(ii) the state of steam entering.
