Prob 3: 5
Determine the phase of phases in a system consisting of H2O at the following conditions and sketch p-v and T-v
diagrams showing the location of each state.
a) p = 80 psi
T = 312.07 deg F.
b) p = 80 psi
T = 400 deg F.
c) p = 360 psi
T = 400 deg F.
d) p = 70 psi
T = 320 deg F.
e) 14.7 psi
T = 10 deg F.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------a) p = 80 psi
T = 312.07 deg F.
from Table A-3E: p = 80 and T = 312.07 are saturation values. Therefore this is somewhere along the liquidvapor line and exists as two phases. Quality is not given, so the spec. volume cannot be determined.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------b) p = 80 psi
T = 400 deg F.
from Table A-3E at p = 80 note that T=400 > 312.07 (saturation pressure) so the substance is vapor or
superheated.
from Table A-4E
p = 80 and T = 400 gives v = 6.22 ft 3/ lbm
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -c) p = 360 psi
T = 400 deg F.
From table A-2E: at T = 400 note that p=360 > 247.1 (saturation pressure) so that the substance is condensed
liquid.
from table A-5E
p=500 psi and T = 400 is as close as you can get to p = 360 and 400.
therefore use v as approximately equal to 0.0186 ft3/lbm.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------d) p = 70 psi
T = 320 deg F.
From table A-2E: at T=320 note that p= 70 < 89.60 (saturation pressure) so the substance is vapor or superheated.
from table A-4E

Data encounter in solving problems often do not fall exactly on the grid of values provided by property tables, and
linear interpolation between adjacent table entries becomes necessary. Using the data provided here, estimate
a) the specific volume at T=240 deg C, p = 1.25 MPa in m3/kg
b) the temperature at p = 1.5 MPa, v = 0.155 m3/kg in deg C.
c) the specific volume at T =220 deg C, p = 1.4 MPa in m3/kg

vf = 0.0010732 < 0.5 < 0.6058 = v g (sat. vapor)so the substance is mixture of liquid
Therefore the temperature is the saturation temp for p=300 which is T = 133.6 deg C.

T = 200 deg C, find v in m3/kg
Table A-2 at T = 200 p=280 > 15.54 (sat pressure) so the substance is compressed liquid.
