Question

A 0.5-m3 rigid vessel initially contains saturated liquid–saturated vapor mixture of water at 120°C. The water is now heated until it reaches the critical state(point). Solve, 1. Show the process on T-v diagram with respect to saturation lines. 2.  Determine the mass of the liquid water at the initial state.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given Data:

  • The volume of the rigid tank is V = 0.5 m3.
  • The initial temperature is T=120°C.

Part (1):

Refer to TABLE A-1 to determine the critical volume of water.

The process can be shown on the T-v diagram as,

Step 2

Part (2):

The mass of mixture can be determined as,

m=Vvcr=0.5 m30.003106 m3/kg=160.9 kg

Refer to Table A-4 to determine the property of the steam at a temperature 120°C.

vf=0.001060 m3/kg.vg=0.89133  m3/kg.
