Please help me understand how V2 was determined. The problem's context and solution given by another expert is given below,

Transcribed Image Text:With a 50 m^3 capacity, a tank contains steam at 400 degrees Celsius and 4500 kPa. From the tank,
steam is vented through a relief valve to the atmosphere until the pressure in the tank falls to 3500 kPa.
Assuming the venting process is adiabatic, estimate the steam's final temperature in the tank and the
mass of steam vented.
Griven that:
Volume = V = 5om³
P, = 4500kfa
T, = 400°c
Solution: From steem table at 4500 KPe and 400°c
s, = 6-7093 KJ/19.K and v, = 0-06475 m³/kg.
proces is adiobatic them s, = S2 tham.
S2 = 6- 7093 KJ lky.k
