Explain what is mean by "wet steam" and show that the volume of 1 kg of
wet steam is very nearly equal to the dryness fraction times the specific volume of
dry saturated steam.
0.125 m' of wet steam at 1 MPa has an enthalpy content of 1809 kJ/kg.
Calculate the mass and dryness fraction of the steam. If a sample of this steam is
throttled to 70 kPa. Calculate its final condition. Take specific heat capacity of
superheated steam at constant pressure is 2 kJ/kg K.
