An insulated tank (Tank A) of 0.6 m3 volume is connected to another insulated tank (Tank B) of 0.3 m3 volume. Initially tank A contains steam at 0.2 MPa and 300 0C and tank B contains wet steam at 0.5 MPa and a quality of 85%. The valve connecting the two tanks is opened, and flow occurs until equilibrium (both thermal and mechanical) is reached. Estimate the final pressure.

Expert Solution
Step 1
Given that:
Volume of tank A VA = 0.6 m3
Volume of tank A VB = 0.3 m3
Initially tank A contains steam at 0.2 MPa and 300 0C and tank B contains wet steam at 0.5 MPa and a quality of 85%.
