Steam is flowing through a pipe with a closed valve which feeds into a rigid tank which has a volume of .4 cubic meters. The steam is at 1.4 MPa and 300C. The tank is initially filled with saturated vapor steam at 350 kPa. The valve is opened and steam flows into the rigid tank until the pressure is 1.4 MPa. Determine the mass of steam added to the tank and the final temperature of the tank.
